Hello guys. I'm thinkin to upgrade my gpu cause my old one is dead Lol. I had the 4870x2 2gb. I need some advices which to choose ati or nvidia. Sapphire or asus. I have inmind 2 different gpu. ASUS EN GTX560 TI DC2 TOP/2DI/2GD5 2GB PCI-E RETAIL . SAPPHIRE RADEON HD7850 OC 2GB DDR5 PCI-E RETAIL . But the ati one is at 5ghz and the nvidia is at 4 ghz.What you guys think. Please google them cause cant Post links. Lol
What about driver errors m8. I had my old one and it made my life hell. Lol. I would go for nvidia if ati drivers are still faulty.
Pick your poison, both will kill you. I don't think you'll run into troubles if you keep single card and properly install it. I was using Radeon since AGP era, never got any trouble with it. Keep in mind I don't mention crossfire here.
Lol this is so sweet. Those cards will kill me anyway. So sweet revenge from my dead gpu. Lol. And how should I install it m8? Isnt that simple to put it into the mobo connect cables and its done?
There's no ATi... AMD bought them in 2006. Drivers for AMD and nVidia is still 50/50. Some times you get a driver that f**ks all up and other times you hit a winner... untill the next upgrade. Go for the HD7850 it's a bit quicker...but if you can then go for HD7870.
i would said 7850 despite AMD sh*t drivers, because it's a more recent GPU... if you wait a bit there will be NVidia 660 and i would choise it over 560 or 7850. both GPU would be nice anyway none are bad. it's up to you.
I use 7850 crossfire even and ive got no problems at all. So drivers are great imo. All games maxed out,cant find any probs. So 7850 all the way+it has a lot more in it with ocing,gtx 580 performance is easy reachable
