APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: 1-2 weeks from today
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: gaming
POWER SUPPLY: not sure what to get for either of these two cards
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: Intel Core i5 2500K Quad Core Unlocked Processor LGA1155 3.3GHZ Sandy Bridge 6MB
ASUS P8P67 LE B3 Intel P67 Motherboard
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: www.tigerdirect.ca or www.canadacomputers.com
PARTS PREFERENCES: No preference.
OVERCLOCKING: Yes. MAYBE I will do Crossfire/SLS later on
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1080
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Must run newest and best games (I.E. STALKER COP, Crysis, BFBC2 on highest settings).
The debate i'm having is between these two cards:
The Sapphire 100314VXSR Radeon HD 6870 Vapor-X Video Card - 1GB, GDDR5 link
and the MSI N560GTXTwinFrozrII/OC GeForce GTX 560 Video Card - 1GB, GDDR5 link
I'm not too familiar with the specifics of GPU's so I would really appreciate some input
. I want to get as many people's opinions as possible before I waste my hard earned money.
