I have a HD7970- Probably going to return it

[Dovetailed]

I bought a HD7970 yesterday... Should I return it and get the GTX680 instead?

At 1920x1080 it won't matter at all, both cards are pushing max settings and 60fps.

I would return it though and just wait because the price has to drop.

Yes, the 7970 at $550 is robbery. AMD's strategy of underclocking their GPU's to rip of their costumers has backfired.

the 680 is looking like a champ

mind you id still use a 7970 or 2 for extreme resolutions, ie eyefinity. the 7970 definately catches up the higher you crank the resolution, the extra ram will help at some point as well.
