7950 vs 7870 vs 7850

[trflach]

So pricing wise, it comes down roughly to this:
7950: ~360
7870: ~330
7850: ~250

Being there's a 30$ difference between the 7950 and 7870, why not go with the 7950? I would build a new computer within the month and I'm trying to choose between all of these. I'd be on 1920x1200 on all high/ultra with current/future games hopefully. Paired with 8gb ram and 2500k.

How soon do you need this upgrade? I would personally wait (I am waiting) for GTX 660/Ti. -- If you ABSOLUTELY need it now I would recommend the GTX 670 @ the prices they are now:

Those are well regarded cards...


Also I recommend using this amazing tool for your build:

http://pcpartpicker.com

It will give you a rundown of the costs etc. of parts and you can input your zip code to give a possible deal that may not be able to be seen by the general public - such as microcenter etc.



Hope this helps!

Alright Awesome! Thanks. btw, how long do you plan on waiting? Bc I prob have around a month and a half
