7970. Great price for the card.

Actually just looked, that one was really far away from me so.

the 7970 would be the good choice because of the price. But the 680 is still pretty cheap for 180 dollars. It depends on your preference Nvidia or AMD :D

The 7970 is about as fast as a GTX 770 which is basically a 680 so that one is too expensive in comparison. But since the 670 is half the price of the 7970 id probably get that one.

This says 670 is faster than 7970

Buy that 670 it's a steal, Sell it with profit and get something better if you need to.

I think I'd rather keep it, unless I can sell it and get a better card.

Either way, my 7850 I have now is sad :(

Depending on the games you play a 7850 still kicks ass, I had the Asus 2gb version it could overclock like crazy played almost all my games at high/ultra 1080p 70/100 fps.

My main problem with mine is 1gb.
