Hello all,
Recently, I was looking at GPUs. I have came across these two:
1. XFX Double D FX-787A-CDFC Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
2. PowerColor PCS+ AX7870 2GBD5-2DHPPV3E Radeon HD 7870 MYST. Edition (Tahiti LE) 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card (UEFI Ready)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Which one will be better for gaming on medium settings at 1080p? I was looking to play games such as Far Cry 3, Skyrim, etc.

And what is the difference between these cards, other than price? Is there any difference in performance? Which one should I go with?

Thank you in advance!

Power Color it's not a regular 7870 like the others! It's a Tahiti LE with 4.3 billion transistors compared to the 7870GHz's Pitcairn XT with only 2.8 billion. You're getting more shaders, texture units and the same compute units as a 7870GHz.
