What's the better choice?
1. Asus Geforce GTX 660Ti 2GB DDR5 DirectCUII
2. Asus Radeon HD7950 3GB DDR5 DirectCUII
*I don't care about phsyx as it's used in a very small number of games.
*Both cards come with 3 years of warranty so I might OC it a bit without changing the voltage.
*I have a mid tower case but the airflow is good.
*I heard people saying that the 660ti is already chocking on its bandwidth problem. Anyway I don't think a big bandwidth like 384bit isn't going to be a huge advantage.
*660ti is a couple of bucks cheaper than the 7950.
*Assuming that I upgrade after AMD 8000 and Nvidia 700 series comes, I'd be waiting for AMD 9000 and Nvidia 800 series (skipping the next genaration) will one of these two hold the ground and allow me to play games at mid-high settings?
*I'm not going past 1920x1080 so have no hopes of going multi gpu setup later.
Right now I'm leaning towards HD 7950 because it looks a bit better than the 660ti. It's my personal favour but not going to buy the card for the outer look..
Thanks in advance..
