So much choice

[Classrobbie]

Hi,

 

Ive posted a lot recently I know, I just dont know what to get as there is so much out their. Started off with thinking about getting a HD 7950 and would still be able to afford liquid cooling of my fx8120. Or I could get a HD 7970 but either XFX or Saphire vappor x OC. This would mean no cooling. But I had missed that on the other hand there is nvidia and could get a Geforce GTX 770 by msi gaming edition OC and still have £50 left over in which I could buy a starter water cooling system or good air cooling.

 

I need someone to tell me whats the best and what they would do, P.S

 I will be playing games like battlefield and ARMA hopefully in ultra in 1080p

Thanks...

go for a 7950 and the noctua d12 as a cooler as it beats a majority of the cheaper sub $90 water coolers.

7950 and a cooler. A 7950 is most of the performance of a 7970. you can use the money you save to get a d12, like chri5 said. Keep in mind you also get free games with the 7950 which you could sell.

Amd is kicking butt around the $100-300 mark for gaming. Go 770 if you want higher performance, have more money and want cuda for editing/rendering.

For most gaming situations, the 7770, 7850, 7870, and 7950 are kings. (Maybe 7790 depending on the situation--location, price, etc.)

I recommend going with the 7950 and getting the Xigmatek Darknight or NHD14 cooler. I just bought the XFX 7950, it overclocks extremely well, 4 free games, and the performance difference for $100 more to get the GTX 770 is not worth (Unless you need Cuda).
