I was told to get the GTX 570 but I wanted to get everyone's opinion. $360 is the max I can spend. My resolution on my screen is 2100 x 1152 I believe. I can double check that. The main game that I play is wow and I want to run it best that I can and I heard the nvidia is the card to get. I already have a buyer for my old card so folks help me out! Thanks! Happy Holidays!

What makes this one so diff. I know the specs are different but what does super clocked me and should I get this one or normal one? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130595&cm_re=gtx570-_-14-130-595-_-Product

At that price the best you can get is the gtx570, 6970 is on par at the same price but WoW is quite nvidia favoring. It'll max out any game at your resolution with AA and AF enabled too

Yeah, the 570 is the best for 360. You won't be disappointed... Like ^ said, max any game.

Never heard of 2100x1152... Is it a CRT or something?

 

[whooleo]

I think he means 1152x864...

It comes overclocked by default and will give a pretty decent boost in performance for the $10 more it costs, it's definetly worth the small premium.

EVGA likely uses higher quality chips, sorted through the binning process, for their Superclocked cards. Based on the list of GTX 570's for sale on Newegg, you could go with any of them. They are all reference models, except the EVGA is at 797 mhz and the Asus is at 742 mhz. All the others are at 732 mhz and slightly cheaper.

I forget the resolution. I have a 24 inch dell. I know it is in the low 2000 x 1000's. Can't. Remember though.

 

[wiinippongamer]

2048 x 1152 I think you mean.

 

[03mach1]

That's right! Good job man!

AA - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-aliasing
