Hi,
I've thinking on which card will I get for my new build.
i5 3570
asus h77m-le
G-skill sniper 8gb
caviar black 500gb
NZXT Phantom
Seasonic S12II 620w
LG 23" IPS234V
But I'm still not decided on what will I buy. At first I'm on the process of picking if I'll get a 660 ti or a 7950. I picked 660 ti first, because I'm only planning to play at 1920x1080, and it is said that 660 ti runs cooler and uses less power, so might be longer lifespan and less electricity bill for me. But with alot of harsh comments and eager people telling me to get 7950 instead, I'm now confused. And now, if I get a 7950, I have a choice of getting either a Asus TOP edition, Sapphire OC ed, or a power color reference card. The power color reference card is like 75$ cheaper but since its a reference card, I think it wont make it in my list because I want the best cooler(thus longer lifespan) for my card. The Asus and the sapphire card prices the same. Now I'm trying to pick from the two.
Could someone help me on this. And If you have comments on me picking the 660 ti instead, go ahead. I just want my PC/card to live as long as possible. But not really compromising its performance but its only secondary to lifespan. Thanks!
