Hi guys,
i'm kinda new to the gaming forum scene so ur help and cooperation is much appreciated.
My current specs are:
2 sata samsung HDD (1 320gb and 1 1.5tb)
1 core 2 quad q6600 processor
an Intel DG41RQ motherboard.
1 dvd reader writer
a 22 inch Samsung monitor with dvi input
2 DDR2 sd rams
I live in Bangladesh, so the cards that are currently available with my local authorized dealers are the XFX HD 6870 and the Gigabyte HD 6950 1 GB edition.
i am pretty confused about which graphics card to get as the 6950 kinda hits the upper limit of my budget, so recommendations are required. Although the Gigabyte is probably a better card, it does not provide the 3d feature that the xfx cards provide. Plus, since i am probably not going to change my specs (except for the psu that i will be mentioning) in the next 2 years, and am never gong to overclock, SLI or do the Eyefinity thing, will i be needing it, or will the hd6870 be sufficient.
I play almost all types of games that come out,most preferably in their max settings. I used to own a Sapphire HD 4850 toxic before it burnt out along with my old psu.
the 3d gaming thing is kind of making it difficult for me to choose. Also i plan to buy a Thermaltake litepower 700w, so will that suffice, or do i need something better, or more powerful or both? Also, how is the gigabyte warranty?
