Hello
I would like to change my gigabyte HD4890 for a HD 6970 but i want to know a few things before doing it, i want to know if my system can take it, i have a i5 750 with a P7P55D LE (if u have to know something else let me know), i also wanna know if it's a good choice, where is the best dealer to buy a gc from and the fastest (knowing that i'm in canada)
Thanks for replying

Nope, you install it the same as any other PCIe card, except you plug in one additional plug, just like your 4890.
If you are unsure how it's supposed to look when it's finished, look at your current card. For directions, I'd do a google search on how to install a graphics card. It's actually quite easy.

Did you put the computer together? Did you purchase it prebuilt, or had it built for you? There should be a reseat or box that would let you know what it is. However, if it's running a 4890 and is crossfire certified, it's hard to imagine it wouldn't have the power. I've never seen a crossfire PSU with out at least 650 watts.
The sticker with the info is likely on the side not visible.

The two best things to do is to first, follow the instruction guide. It tells you the exact steps to follow. Keep in mind it's done in a more generic fashion, so they might show a single power connector while you'll use 2. If those are not clear enough, try goggling a video to help. There are quite a few.
