$500-$600 graphics card(s)

[d_pepper]

I am looking to spend $500 to $600 on a new graphics card or cards.

I am building a computer for BF3 and skyrim.



Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

This would be my choice , untill Newegg gets more of these in stock;

...people have had luck unlocking shaders on this card~

...this too~

...I have 2 of these and while there is no shader unlock they are highly over-clockable. I set my voltage to 1.149 and I hit 940/1375 easy.

two 6950's easily beat a gtx 580.

From what I gather the top two cards come with factory unlocks... just check the reviews at Newegg and decide for yourself... basically 6070's at a discount...

Good luck!
