Hi
Now first up, PLEASE no fanboi replies!
Iam in the market for a new graphics card to replace my HD 5770. the 2 cards iam looking at are the HD 6970 and GTX 580. Both of these cards are very good and iam finding it hard to decide which one to get. About 7 days ago i was going to get the 6970 but We were hit by cyclone yasi and lost power and phone for 8 days. this gave me time to really think about it. in that time, i also earnt more $$$.
I know the GTX 580 is a little better than the HD 6970. I just want a card that can max all the new games in 2011-2012 and possibly further. i dont want to have to worry about major fps drop. if the 6970 will easily do this then ile go with it. iam a huge fan of the latest total war games and cant w8 for shogun 2. i also game at 1920x1080 on a 24" monitor (Samsung BX2450)
I currently have $550 saved for the 6970 but is it worth saving that little exra for the gtx 580?
