Just upgraded to a i5 2500k and a Gigabyte z68 ud3h motherboard
Got the I5 at 4.0 ghz for now, may or may not push it harder in the future considering it does have plenty more to give
But for now Im looking for graphics power to match.
So should I get two 560ti in Sli or two 6950?
I was looking at two of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130604 $460 but $410 after rebates
Or two of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150524 $500 but $440 after rebates
What do you guys think? Would 1GB be fine for video memory or should I bite the bullet and spend more on 6950 2GB? Any other good sli(preferably) or crossfire options out there at around this price point?
Edit: forgot to mention my psu is a corsair 750hx psu
Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Purchase Date: within next 3 weeks, after move in to campus
overclocking: probably not, but if i can i may tinker with it at some point
Budget Range : $400-$500 the cheaper the better, but I want some kick butt performance for Battlefield 3
Sli is preferred but I'm willing to do either
