XfX 7870 DD vs xfx 7870 core

[huanwu26]

I heard the core edition runs cooler than DD edition but then I heard that dd runs cooler than core edition. Help me finally put case to rest.

How many fans do you want, and is the lifetime warranty important to you? If so, get the DD edition. all the other new XFX cards only come with a 2 year warranty.

And to answer your question, it really doesn't make too much difference. They both will keep the card from catching fire.
