Hi, so I've been looking at various tests recently for graphics cards and it seems that the 5870 actually beats the 5970 in some applications. I would have thought that the 5970 would be better due to having 2 G.P.U.'s compared to the 5870's single. Could someone tell me overall which one provides the best performance for games?
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Real time strategy games like Dawn of War 2 and Starcraft 2, general word processing etc.
OVERCLOCKING: Yes
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1200
OTHER COMMENTS: This is purely from a game performance point of view, price efficiency isn't important. Using only 1 monitor.
