Option 1:
6950
Option 2:
2500k

Right now my specifications are:
Intel Celeron G530 (1155)
MSI Z68A-GD65
2x4gb RAM
5770gpu
OCZ CoreXstream 500w PSU

So, I would go with the 6950, but I am not sure if my PSU will be able to cope with it. I used a PSU calculator (:rolleyes:) and with 10% Capacitor aging, 100% cpu load and 100% system load. With all of my fans etc...

Which will give me a good upgrade, I game mostly and render long 720p videos. They take a bit long to render, but I am not sure whether CPU rendering would be better than GPU rendering.

Well, I am selling some things, so I will have enough for one in a few weeks, and the other maybe in a few months.
