as i guess the last sapphire one is the best cause as i read sapphire is the best amd brand but someone told me that the powercolor one is better and about the gigabyte one i didnt preffer it alot cause it a little bit more expensive than the others i dont really want to go out of the budget alot . so just if it really worth it ill go for the gigabyte one.

Powercolor Myst Edition cuz of Tahiti core. But that so close to the 7950, so go that or GTX 760+.

The Sapphire XT has a way better cooler than the Powercolor.

The MSI or Gigabyte cards would also be good.

Larry Bob :

May the cooler better but Tahiti core rules.

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

The sapphire XT version is way better than any of the other versions and don't go for powercolor myst edition or club 3D joker card, they do not have good cooling. The sapphire one is the best.

Larry Bob · Jul 3, 2013

Ectorr :

The Sapphire 7870 XT is Tahiti LE.

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

so until now most say power color ? i don't understand what special about them .. if the core clock is less than the others what's so good about it ?
and about the cooler doesn't solve it if i just add a case cooler ? and about overlocking can the powercolor be overlocked just as good as sapphire ?

Ectorr · Jul 3, 2013

I thought about the same few weeks ago so I went for Sapphire 7950

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

i wonder though why the xt sapphire is cheaper than the other oc'ed one .. (at the offer i got) if the xt is better is it cause the xt not oc'ed and will the oc remove my warranty?

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

hey bro,the sapphire is best but if u want to get the best within budget, then the gigabyte would be the best, it has good cooling and comes with factory O.C, the sapphire XT(Tahiti LE) is costlier as it is a boost version of hd7870. get the gigabyte hd7870.

Larry Bob · Jul 3, 2013

sourodip :

The 7870 XT has basically nothing in common with the standard 7870 besides name. It's not a "boost edition", as the name may lead you to believe.

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

sourodip :

so is the gigabyte one the best .. ?? though it doesnt have a tahiti le core ... ? .. cant i just oc the others so they match the gigabyte factory oc (ill do that just if it doesnt remove my warranty )

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

first of all the gigabyte one is better among the normal stock hd7870 card's, the sapphire hd7870XT is better than all the hd7870's as it is a boost version and it's performance is close to a hd7950. the gigabyte one is cheapest and comes with a good amount of factory O.C, so u don't have to O.C it but if u want to O.C u can O.C it and get somewhat close to the XT(Tahiti LE version).

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

sourodip :

wich mean the xt is the best and its cheaper than the gigabyte .. but are you sure that the xt got tahiti le core?

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

yeah the XT has the TAHITI LE core and if it is cheaper than the gigabyte one in your country then don't think of any other cards and get the XT.

Is by far the best one on the list. But at the price point you are looking at, I have to ask why you are dismissing the 7950 Stock or a 760?

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

weel good point, i have completely forgotten to mention about the gtx760, a gtx760 is around the price of a a gtx760 and a lot better. But if u want to stick with amd, then it's a good choice.

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

VXBlade :

budget im really shall stuck on it .. and i wont game alot after 1 year or 2 max 3 years and that will be enough i guess .. and its with 3 year warranty

Rocwen Colondo · Jul 3, 2013

sourodip :

ya ill stuck with amd since xbox one and ps4 will be using it and i guess games will be more optimized for amd so ..

i decided the xt is way to go . thanks alot for your help mate

sourodip · Jul 3, 2013

u are welcome mate
