[eggroll69]

Hi everyone so I am trying to decide between the MSI GTX 670 or the HIS 7950 or the Sapphire 7950. If you have any suggestions please let me know and if you have any comments on my build here is the link to it: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Pk92

choose the one you feel more comfortable with, people are just going to argue in this thread about which is better, both are better in areas the other isn't but its not like its a blowout either way (except the bandwidth which the 7950 has the advantage of being 384bit vs nvidia's 256 bit) if you truley want to know, just look up benchmarks. you won't be dissappointed choosing between any of them.

I would say that the 670 is probably a little stronger than the 7950 at this point. That being said, it is very easy to get a 7950 for sub $320, and the best priced 670 is at $360. So you are paying a decent amount more for a very small boost in performance. The difference probably isn't even noticeable in most games. And games where there is a noticeable difference there will be a game where the 7950 wins by a decent margin. The 7950 will probably win in the long run because of its higher bit and larger ram. It also does need to be mentioned that the 7950 comes with free games. Both are good cards, but I think that you are spending more intelligently if you get a 7950.
