what version of the 560 ti should i get in sli, the OC 1gb version or the 2gb version too many choices! Need some help so i can order them noaw!

Are you running multiple monitors (for gaming, just extending the desktop doesn't matter). If you are, the extra VRAM is going to be essential.

If not, the 1GB model should be fine. Dont bother getting factory overclocked cards, its the exact same hardware and you can overclock it yourself in 10mins for free.

MSI, Gigabyte or ASUS are the models I recommend. All of them are good.

just the 1 1920x1080 monitor , can a 560 ti 1gb outperform 6950 CF?

 

[manofchalk]

Two 6950's will outperform two 560Ti's. Also the 6950's have 2GB of VRAM on them, so another benefit.

and they're about the same price in the UK, is XFX a good make for the 6950's?

 

[deadbart]

also would 750w psu be enough to run the SLI 6950's overclocked and my CPU overclocked?

 

[manofchalk]

XFX is also a good manufacturer, forgot about them. Sapphire are also good, didn't say them before because they are AMD exclusive.
750W should cover it. Which PSU? Because some generics claim it can supply a certain wattage, and in reality have inflated the number by including the other unimportant rails.

the corsair 750w £85 ?

 

[manofchalk]

All good. The 750W corsairs (both TX and HX) will output 744W on the 12v rail, more than sufficient for overclocked dual cards and processors.

awesome, think im just going to get a single 6970 and than buy another in a couple of months time as the 6970's beat sli 570s
