Hello all,

I am trying to choose a GPU for my first build and can not decide which card to pick. Right now newegg has a 48 hour deal on the 7970. Its about $40 lower than usual. I have done research on it but still can't make a decision.

My build will be focused on Skyrim with mods, BF3 and for most next gen games on 1080p. This is what I have gathered so far:
CPU:i5-4670k
MB:Asus Z87-A ATX

Any suggestions before the sale ends?

7970 and 760 don't compete very well. It's more like 7950 or 760, so if you can give an extra $20

Okay, I see. 7970 and the 770 would be a good performance match then, right?

Yes, in that case choose the best offer (price, bundled games, warranty , etc)
