So yeah. I know it's hard to say since not card is released but someone knows the answer. So will the it worth for waiting for the amd 8950 and take it in crossfire or just buy gtx 770 sli now?

-How much will 8950 cost?

-Which will have most performance, a gtx 770 or a 8950?

-Which will have most performance a gtx 780 or a amd 8970?

-Will it be best for wait or not?

specifications for the gpu arent even 100% confirmed... AMD's reveal conference doesnt happen until the end of like september


edit: unless you mean the OEM 8k series, AMD has reserved 8k series as OEM, next gen gpus will have a new naming scheme R#-####

depends what you have now and what resolution you are gaming at. If just 1080p, just get a single 770 for now, then wait for amd to reveal specs of the new card. If the new cards look good you can sell your 770 easily, or if they look to be not that great, then get a second 770, nothing lost.

So you're telling me nobody knows anything? But what do people think? Which will have most performance per dollar? Gtx 770 or amd 9950/8950 or whatever it's called...

Get a 4GB GTX 770 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CU9GOAO/ref=as_li_q... now and sell it in a couple months if you want the new AMD series.


Hah, you don't get it? I do not know how good it will run games!!!


And no one will know how well it runs games until they release it. So if you want to know, you will have to wait until specs and benchmarks are released. The 770 should run most games maxed out at the moment at 1080p.
