I need help with a purchase. I'm going to buy a couple GPUs for my new computer, and I'm trying to decide which one. I'm planning on buying two, for multiple tile rendering. I need to buy NVIDIA because of it's compatibility with Blender (which is what I will be using most of the time). I was thinking the new 600 line of the GTXs, but they're more pricey. Is there a huge increase in performance between the 500s and 600s? Also, should I get 50s or 60s? if I buy 60s, they'd have to be the 500 series because of price. I'd love your feedback! All these cards and prices and features can get confusing after a while!
