Guest

Which one, which one, which one will be more fun? Especially in SLI/Crossfire.

7950 by a mile

He is the hero this forum deserves but not the one it needs right now.So we'll hunt him because he can take it because he is not our hero he is a silent guardian

As a college student that price gap is a big. But yea, I think I will go with the AMD 7950. Except I will go with Gigabyte as the manufacturer.

You can get them for far less than $265, not sure where you are looking.

If you're planning to use a single monitor or a single card setup then definitely get the HD 7950 http://amzn.to/1d7XbCs but if you plan to SLI/Crossfire on multiple monitors you will want the GTX 660 Ti http://amzn.to/15Q3hbw since the Crossfire drivers are still broken for an Eyefinity setup.

I got a sapphire 7950 when the 7000 series launched and I was absolutely floored by the performance (had a 5870 before) It was quiet, it over clocked amazingly I got about 1250 on the GPU if i remember and never went above 68C It played everything I threw at it like a boss and had pretty low power consumption. Any time someone wants a 7950 I always suggest the sapphire vapor X. I loved it and now my friend loves it since I sold it to him. Linus did a video on it too if you want to check it out.
