Hey guys,
Looking at upgrading my graphics card (currently rocking X-fired Radeon HD 3850s, haha) and I'm looking at the 7850 and the 7870, and wondering if the extra $50 or so is worth it for the 7870? I know either will be a big improvement, but is it worth coughing up the extra money for a bit more power? The two I'm looking at are:
The MSI R7850 and The Sapphire "Ghz Edition"
Other specs of my current setup:
Gigabyte GA-970a-D3 Mobo
AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2Ghz CPU
16gb G.Skill Ripjaw DDR3 (7-7-7-21)
Crucial m4 256gb SSD
Thanks for any advice you can offer...
