I am currently arguing with myself over the HD 7950, 7970 and 7990 for my next build come Feburary (hopefully). I am not prepared to get two cards because that would create too much heat so i just want one card but at the same time I want to keep the cost of the rig down as much as I can. I am thinking of the 7950 because while it is cheaper than the 7970 and vastly cheaper than the 7990 it is still very powerful. I want to game on a single 1080p display with such titles as Arkham Origins, far Cry 3, Skyrim, BF4 and Crysis 3.

Single monitor get the 7970. The 7990 is too powerful for that, and the thermal issues are still there.

The 7990 is a dual GPU on the performance level of a GTX 780 Ti so it will run hot while using alot of power

The 7950 is great enough for 1080p gaming, get the 7970 if your budget allows for it however
