PowerColour 7870 GHz Edition vs MSI Twin Frozr 7870

[camohanna]

PC 7870 GHz $340 http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=1161229

MSI TFII $370 http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?e=1161220

Which one is better for overall (Overclocking, performance etc. )

You can't compare that Powercolor with MSI.
MSI just rules out.
The powercolor one is OC than the MSI but still you can OC it yourself. Because MSI TF offers very good cooling.
And MSI is a better brand too.

MSI Twin Frozr II is better (The 2nd one.)

But I usually don't recommend AMD for a reason. I personally got a GTX 660 instead of that (MSI GTX660 TF III OC)

Ok, so the Twin Frozr. What 660 would you reccomend that is within $30 of the Frozr? use the site (pricespy.co.nz) if you want to look

I have found this 660 Twin Frozr 2 for the same price as the 7870 http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=1408212. Get that instead?

I have it and Its awesome.

Don't take tension of OCing it. Its factory Overclocked.
You can Oc it even more if you want.

I got busy searching so didn't saw that you posted something. And we both found the same card.

Get that Card, from my experience its the best in the range.

Radeon hd 7870 is much faster than GTX 660, while at the same price.

There is a report from techreport saying Nvidia is smoother, but this problem is due to flip quenue on default, switching it to 1 will solver the problem on radeon. At this point, it is most likely a tiny driver glitch and probably will get patched up.

Just throwing it out there if you are not set on being green
