Hi guys, I cant decide on a GPU for my new rig. I was planning on getting the gigabyte windforce, but since the price has gone up, i'm wondering whether one of the others are now better value for money.

YOUR BASKET
1 x HIS HD 7950 IceQ X² BOOST 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (H795QMC3G2M) with Crysis 3 & Bioshock PC Games £259.99
1 x MSI HD 7950 Twin Frozr III Boost Edition 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card with Crysis 3 & Bioshock PC Games £259.99
1 x Gigabyte ATi Radeon HD 7950 Windforce 3X 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card with Crysis 3 & Bioshock PC Games £259.99
1 x Sapphire HD 7950 Boost 3072MB PCI-Express Graphics Card (11196-19-20G) with Crysis 3 & Bioshock PC Games £239.99
Total : £1,031.96 (includes shipping : £10.00).



Thanks in advance.
 
Im thinking of RMA'ing my Gigabyte for the HIS atm, theres a lot of issues with getting voltage locked ones or not gettings voltage locked ones etc. And in some cases very high VRM temps
 
Is there much difference between them?
I'm sorta drawn to the HIS gpu since its on sale and worth more.
But I've no clue if one is really "better" than the other.
I'll be running a single gpu.
 
The HIS cooler is very nice, and I think it has better VRM cooling than the Gigabyte one.

Card wise, I'd prefer the HIS, but the Gigabyte has 3 years warranty, and UK RMA whereas the HIS is 2 years and the retailer has to send the card off to another country.
 
Meh, I don't really care about a years difference in warranty.
I think I'll go for the HIS then. Unless anyway can convince me otherwise.
Speak now or forever hold your peace. :P
