Which Card would perform the best?

[andypearce]

Hello Everyone.

I'm looking at two Graphics cards to buy at the moment, the links to these cards are below:

Card 1
http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/Asus+GeForce+GTX+550Ti+1024MB+GDDR5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+?productId=47113

Card 2
http://www.ebuyer.com/266983-asus-hd-6770-1gb-gddr5-direct-cu-dvi-vga-hdmi-pci-e-graphics-eah6770-dc-2di-1gd5


Basically, I would like to know which card would perform the best?

Thanks for your help

Andy

gtx 550ti is faster than hd 6770.
Get gtx...!

550ti review;

imo the 550ti is slightly more powerful. but the 6770 is more efficient.
6770 has eyefinity, 550ti has physx.
they are similar - 550ti is nvidia's answer to the 5770/6770.

both will perform about the same on average with them each taking the lead depending on the game. the 6770 consumes significantly less power so i would let that be the deciding factor since performance is so similar. another consideration is weather your motherboard supports cf or sli or both. If it supports only sli go for the 550 if you would like the option to add another card in the future. same goes for CF and the 6770

It's a close call, Aria has an XFX 6770 for less than both of those @ £68.99 inc.VAT

I'd just grab it and save the £13-21 difference.

Okay thanks for your help will the 6770 run Skyrim and MW3 nicely then?

on medium.
Getting gtx 55ti will benefit you over 6770 so get nvidia.

But i'm running Skyrim on Medium now with a 9600 GT

IMO, get a 560 Ti or better card. It worth it for your resolution.
Sapphire 6950 2GB is about $100 more than 6770 but its 2gb and you may also could flash it to 6970(maybe not) but better to pay more first. Just an opinion
