well looking at this : http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-560-amp-edition-gtx-560-directcu-ii-top,2944.html#xtor=RSS-182

the 6870 and gtx560 trade blows at all res, depending on which game your playing. Some games favour nvidia and others AMD. Really base any purchase on which gives better performance in whatever games you play. Can't find any benchmarks for the 560 and skyrim/minecraft though.

I promise if you get a 1GB card with Skyrim you will regret it. Nvidia is comming out with another new card mid October, you should wait to see exactly what it is going to bring to the table.

Skyrim eats vRam, especially with mods, and especially with alot of NPC's on the screen.

The gigabyte 560 is OCed so I guess for the same money it is a better buy
