Hello,
I'm wondering which is better - the evga nvidia 550ti or the msi ati 6770. It looks like, from the specs, the ati card is better, wider memory bus, more power in general (it's also about $15 more and needs a bit more PSU). But I've heard that many games are optimized for nvidia drivers, which explains why in benchmarks sometimes the 550ti beat the 6790. What would you guys recommend?
btw I have: Intel i5 750 (2.66GHz quad-core), 8GB DDR3 1600 (running at 1333MHz, I'll get around to overclocking to full speed someday), 640GB WD Caviar Black, 520W Seasonic S12II PSU, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1.
