no 6950 1GB can't be unlocked into 6970, and no 6950 is not 10% more powerful than the GTX 560Ti, it's only few percent... around 5%, also 6950 CF is much more powerful than 560 SLI, it is running head to head with 570 SLI, you can always buy some cheap nVidia card for PhysX and in future AMD HD3D will be more supported than now *probably it's more or less as supported as nVidia 3D* and AMD cards run 3D better than nVidia...
