SLI 560 Ti vs CrossFire 6950?

[appleshaq]

Hi there, what would you suggest for this monitor resolution and screen size (24" monitor @ 1920x1080p)?

These are my only two options and I don't want to get a single better card.

So...

This in SLI: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1193&products_id=17207

Or this is SLI: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1193&products_id=16578

Vs this in CrossFire: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_1179&products_id=17187

Thanks and these are my only options, what would be the absolute BEST?

Thanks 😀

Ugh, this is one of the hardest debates we have on the forums. If it is the absolute best, it only depends on what games you play, in certain scenario's the 560ti's will perform better than the 6950's. 😛 its very hard to decide.

Sorry for all the questions, but I thought this is what the forums were for. I don't want to buy something very expensive and then find out I wasted the money and could of got something better for the same price. Plus, this will be my first build at my young age so I value money very highly and want to know from the experts. Sorry if I sound like a broken record, I just want to get the right advice before I spend $500+.

Thanks, I guess, but what would you suggest?

So the 560 Ti's are better?

Thanks!

Considering u can physically have 2 those 6950 DirectCUs in a typical system, yes.

Did this make sense?

I was wondering about the 1GB models of the DirectCU II which look considerably smaller than the 2GB versions.
