[souler676]

Hey guys I have Finally completed my build

except for the GPU 🙁 ..

I'm planing to get one of these two :

XFX Double D HD 7970 Black Ed. 3GB

AND

EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC Signature2

so which one is better and what would you recommend ?


and BTW this is the rest of the build ( if it matters ) :

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H
Intel Core i5-3570K
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz
Samsung 840 Series 2.5 inch 120GB SATA III
Cooler Master HAF 922 case

id recommend 7970 because 680 is overpriced in comparison to 7970

Go for hd 7950.it more than enough for gaming for ultra high.

7970, cant recommend 680 cause price difference is $70-$80. Grab this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202008

don't worry about the price I don't mind paying a little more to get the best one !

is the 7950 better in everything compared to the 680 ?

7950 can overclock easy to the 7970 specs that or a 670. the money you save you can sli/crossfire later on and be better off

Ive acctually got that excact 7970 but the ghz edition i have a custom profile fan when i go gaming it puts itself to 50% temps never go over like 61-62c its normally stuck at 60c with auto fans it will probally hit 70c its a decently quiet card. overall Want to save money get the 7950 if you wanna get the best get the 7970 no reason to pick 680 over it. the 7970 ghz is faster. has more vram has a bigger bit interface. 7970 is a great card take it go home enjoy it
