GTX 560 ti 6870 or 6950 for BF3 Battlefield 3 Ultra

[xl-caliber]

Hey guys,

I'm hoping to save as much as possible on a new graphics card that can play Battlefield 3 on Ultra @ 1920*1200p, maybe take MSAA off. I've narrowed it down to the cards mentioned above. Can a 6870 cut it, or do I need to go up to a 6950/560 ti. Hoping for 35+fps at least.

Thanks

you will need that 560Ti or 6950 for BF3 at that resolution.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply.

I've read in a few forums that gtx 560ti had problems with bf3 such as crashing midgame ect, but on the other hand AMD suffers greatly from MSAA. Right now I think I'll get the 6950 though. BTW, is that sapphire 6950 in the link u sent me unlockable?

Thanks
