i say get the hd 7850 which can approach a gtx 580 when oced

It's a close call performance wise whichever one you get, but:

- the 7850 has more vram
- the 7850 will consume way less power (probably 100w+)
- the GTX 570 is faster
- the GTX 570 has CUDA, PhysX, and arguably better drivers
depending on what games you play, one card or the other might be "better" for you its never really wise to buy a card with overclocked expectations. If you need a certain amount of performance then buy a card that performs where you need it. Overclocking is a bonus, any other way and your setting yourself up for unhappiness.

Now I am more confused then ever. Which one would you buy and as far as manufacturers go who does VGA better at present Asus or MSi?

Thanks

go for asus
asus cards have more power phases for better overclocking,smart doctor utility,direct cu cooling etc
