Hi guys, I'm upgrading my GPU from my old 1gb GTX 460.
I'm stuck between buying a Sapphire Dual-X 7950 Boost and the MSI Twin Frozr GTX 670 (or the GTX 760 if it comes out this month). I've heard that Nvidia performs better with Skyrim and ENB in general but I've also been reading about AMD releasing a lot better drivers that increased performance in Skyrim. Also, the HD 7950 has the extra memory bus and Vram...
Obviously the AMD card is a better price per performance value but I won't be purchasing a new GPU for some time.
Just to be clear, I'm not only going to be playing Skyrim (I also will be playing BF3, Bioshock Infinite, etc), but I want a card that specifically would be the best for skyrim.
I'm just planning on playing at 1080p, single monitor, and I won't be adding a second GPU (so crossfire/SLI isn't an issue).
So I would love some suggestions! I'm trying to stay below $360 (the lowest 670 price I can find). Thanks.
