Hi, I've currently got in my rig an XFX HD Radeon 6850 and am wanting to upgrade to one of the bigger and better AMD Cards, but I can't choose which card to take. I've seen the benchmarks for both cards, and while the 6970 obviously surpasses the 6950, I don't know if the price leap is worth. Currently the price leap is around £80 which for me is steep seeing as I'm only 16. These are my specs:
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: 1-2 weeks
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: XFX HD Radeon 6850 and XFX Pro Series Core Edition P1-550S-UKB9 550W PSU
OVERCLOCKING: NO
CROSSFIRE: NO
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Currently running with an AMD Phenom 960t Black Edition x 4 3.0GHz
Thanks in advance All I really want to know is if it is worth it to get a 6970 over the 6950. The highest spec game I play is either Crysis 2 or BF3 right now.
