Which ATI 6870?

[ikilleuu]

I'm going to buy a 6870 though I'm unsure which to brand to buy.

XFX HD 6870
Price: £139.00
I used to have a XFX 6850, however it was faulty so I'm not too sure if I should buy from them again.

Sapphire HD 6870
Price: £165.00

Asus HD 6870
Price: £154.00

If you have this:

in the UK, consider it.

It allows for 3-monitor Eyefinity setup out of the box ( ready to connect to 3DVI monitors without need for dp to dvi adaptor ).

But even if you do not have plans for eyefinity, this model is good.

But if you plan to have eyefinity, step up to the Sapphire 6950 2GB Flex edition which should provide more power to provide excellent framerate at 5760x1080. I have this same card and I am happy so far.

the cheapest, which is the XFX.
graphics cards from any brands can be faulty, you just got lucky with XFX.
15 pounds is quite a big difference, so just get XFX
