Hello guys! First of all English is not my native language so my apologies if i have any mistakes. Anyway i'm gonna build a computer (my first one) specs are :
CPU 965 BE 3.4GHz MOBO, ASRock 970 DE3/U3S3, 4 gigs of 1333Mhz RAM, WD 500gb sata 3 hdd, a FSP PSU 600w and a CM elite 371 case. So i have a 19 inch monitor and i can't choose between 2 GPU's one is the 7770 GHz edition and the 6870 i have seen a lot of reviews/benchmarks etc. and i still can't deside what gpu to get. I'm gonna play a lot of games on it like bf3 crysis 3 (when they release it) the new hitman game, assassin's creed III star wars 1313 well alot of demanding games :D. So my other question is do i need to get a 6870 ('cuz most of the benchmarks i saw it beats the 7770 at higher resolutions) or will the 7770 run that kind of games on a 19 inch monitor (1366/0 x 768) the monitor is a samsung syncmaster b1930. Sorry again for my bad english and yeah i can't explain really good so :D

well as far as gpu selection these are both great card, however should you ever choose to overclock the 7770 is going to have far better yields.

AMD's 6000 series was really more of a consumer series and with the 7000 series theyve tried to bring back the pwer and performance for more enthusiastic gamers

also if you could spend the extra bit the 7870 would last you longer than the 7770

Hello! Well in my country there's a big price difference between those two cards so no i'm afraid i can't spend that much money. I have to choose between the 7770 OC edition or the 6870
