HD7970 or gtx 670? Screen Tearing priority

[pyrefyre]

Hey guys, i've been bent on getting the 7970 but my major concern has always been screen tearing as i dont have a 120hz monitor. Currently, these two cards are at roughly the same price point in my region.

So my question is.

For 670 users is adaptive vsync making a huge difference in your gaming experience? Of course assuming that you game at 60 hz.

For the 7970 users, is the screen tearing noticeable when the framerates drop suddenly?

I game on a 2560 x 1440 monitor. Just in case that's ever a factor.

I have BenQ XL2420T Professional Gaming Monitor so i think i will really enjoy those beasts! now back on topic sorry OP my bad.

Yet another good reason to go with what you are. If you ever feel like trying 3D, that monitor is designed to work with Nvidia 3D Vision 2.

Well i just ordered myself x2 MSI PE 670 god i hope i don't regret it now i am broke lol.

The guilt of going SLI is only temporary, once you see the FPS counter, 3D etc it will bring tears of joy.

You should see Crysis 2 in 3D using the MaLDoHD 3.0 mod. I recently installed it, and with 680's I can still get 60 FPS in 3D. It's pretty amazing.

Awesome will do

I observed in games screen tearing(GTX 670+60 Hz IPS Monitor). I turned on V-sync, and though the tearing was gone, it wasn't that smooth. If I turn it off and the adaptive V-sync on, will it run smoother, and less screen tearing than with it off?

Sorry if I spelled something wrong. I'm romanian!
