Hello

I'm a man from Korea.

I want to compare these two cards.

I heard that 7970 is good card because 13.x patch 7970 give it a better performance



So, at first time, I want to buy sapa hd7970ghz

but there're no physiX and I heard it has very loud noise



By the way, 7970 got a 3gb memory and better bit than 680

and 7970 will give some games(bio..).



so which one is better ? for the 3d gaming user( not a starcraft :lol: )


i got a 23' monitor and b75 mainboard i will not oc and i can't make sli sys(b75 can't do that)

Cpu is e1230 v2...


In Korea, two cards are almost same cost.



Sorry for my bad English. I'm not a English speaker.

Have a nice day.

7970, phys x won't really affect your gameplay, very few game uses physx, though i like nvidia more, i would recommend the 7970, free games, cheaper. But from my experience, nvidia is better at 3d monitor.

How about noise problem, almost same noise?
 
the 7970 does perform better but then the 680 or 670 has physx. it may not be important at all given the only game that makes good use of it is borderlands 2, but then if you play it, it is a must.

they are both just as quiet or loud. not too much difference there.

and if you are deciding to go the 680 route, go get yourself a 670 instead. it performs the same
