Alrighty so ive been building up my pc and at the moment all thats missing is a GPU, now ive narrowed it down between a Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 OC (going for $220 Canadian if i price match) or a Gigabyte HD 7950 OC ($290 Canadian). I know for a fact i will be using only a single monitor at 1080p for gaming.
Pc specs are:
CPU: Intel i5 3570K (stock)
PSU: Corsair 850W modular
Mobo: Asus P8Z77- LE PLUS
RAM: 8GB Patriot Viper Black Mamba
My real dilemma is if the extra $70 is really worth for the better card, i mean i would like to run games maxed out but if the 7870 can accomplish just as much as the 7950 at my res then no point really?
The most demanding games that i own is BF3 which i dont spend on 100% of the time, other times its games like Killing floor or WarZ which arent as demanding...
Thanks in advance!
