[ldc2710]

I would go with the 7850 , since they have 2gb of vram and it is cheaper then the 560 ti 448 .

The 7870 could be a nice option too but costs a bit more then a 560 ti 448.

That just my opinion , so you should wait a bit and get some advise from the more experimented members !

Cheers bro !

I personally would say get a GTX 570 over the 560ti 448 Core, you can get a 570 in some cases below £200...

You need to remember the 448 core version of the 560Ti is just a baby step towards a GTX 570 with only £10 - £20 between getting the 570...

I honestly have not looked into much with the new 7000 series so I won't say anything about them! :')

Gainward Phantom GTX 570 £194.58 ----> http://www.waeplus.co.uk/product/223772/GAINWARD-GeForce-GTX-570-Phantom---1280

Which is (From what I can see) the same price range as the 560Ti 448

i was having a similar problem. but the 'normal' 560 ti. i worked out that an oc 560ti with 4 hours a day gaming would cost £35 more a year to power than the 7850 oc!!

even tho the 7850 is £40 more, in just over a year it will pay the difference itself.

now thats taking it to a level most dont consider when purchasing a card lol I'd say 570 as well but if only 2 options I'd go 560ti 448

7870 for sure. Supports DX11.1 if that interest you at all.

cheers for the imput guys,i think a 570 is what im gonna go for

Hopefully it serves you well

definitely radeon 7850, if you have more budget near in the future then CrossFire it, u wont regret it bro

 

[megagabobe1]

in my opninion you should get the 7850, right now it performs like a 6970 or better using just 1 6pin power connector, you can crossfire them with a 650w psu, and in crossfire they become a very strong force. overclock it to the maximum in CCC with no voltage increase and it becomes like a stock 7870 which competes with a gtx 580

i'd go amd mate, oc on those things is awsome. wouldn't go with a reference one though, just to clock it even higher

Personally I wouldn't buy a 570, not enough Vram for games like BF3, i'm selling mine and getting a 7950 instead. Unless you want to play it on lower settings, ultra settings at 1080p is a big no on a 570.

 

[ldc2710]

well i done a little more looking at cards and i think i will chuck the extra few quid and get a 7870,tho the 570 was tempting i think my mind is made up,just gotta wait 2 days to orde now

 

[You_What?]

I'm looking at a HD7850 having just got rid of a HD5850, prices are tempting given its performance.

Enjoy your new buy.

I play ultra on my 1.2gb 570 on 1920x1080 all day and get 50fps average and no microstuttering (I compared it to playing on low which did not exceed my vram)
