Hello everyone. I just saw that some graphics card price has dropped down. so im thinking to change my gpu. and im aiming on 2Xgtx 670 SLI or 2X7970 CF. the gtx 670 is msi gtx 670 power edition oc which is $359 AUD and almost the same performance with gtx 680. the 7970 is powercolor 7970 OC which is $369 AUD. the gtx 680's are at least $395AUD. pls help me to choose thanks.
Not a big fan of Powercolor two 670 power editions would be a great setup it's basically what I have. A little more info would be nice though: What resolution are you running? What games do you play and plan to play? What are your expectations from this PC?
i'm running 1920x1080. the reason i upgrade is for battlefield 4, im worry my gtx 580 can not handle it. thanks guys for reply
The same as you.How do you know that he has a 580?Not everyone updates there profile. *** Keep the 580 and upgrade when the new amd series arrive.
I wouldn't go with PowerColor. But if you can get other 7970, like a sapphire, that would be great. I would wait for new AMD cards though, they're not that far away and there's no demanding games coming between now and October.
If all the OP is planing to play is BF4 and it's now a Gaming Evolved title yeah I would wait on the new AMD cards the 9970 or whatever they are going to call it is supposed to be about 5% faster than Titan and under $600. This may push the prices of Nvidia cards down (wouldn't hold my breath though there has been a big disconnect from user base and Nvidia lately). OP at least wait till the game comes out and there are performance reviews to base you decision on.
yeah 7870=580 a 7850 is a downgrade:wanker: edit the guy just opened up an account this month and has 2 posts so I am guessing his specs are fully updated
I'd stick with the 580 for the moment and wait for the game to be release. As with the previous games I'm sure there will be benchmarks out in no time, then you get to buy a card with the better results rather than spending money now and hoping you got the right one.
