mis hd 7850 2gb

Go to solution Solved by Appelzaadje,

didnt even know 6900 series came in 1Gb versions lol im still happy with my 2x HD6970's they run most games decent on high over 5760*1080p like 50-60 FPS

games like BF3, bioshock and farcry all run smooth

But if you are planning to run multi monitor 1Gb will not be enough

6950 is similar to a 7870 I believe, you may just be better off getting another 6950.

i really dont want to keep my hd 6950 because i want to get ready for bf4 and newer games

 

I didn't see that you had the 1GB 6950, instead of getting two 7850's, just get one 7950 and wait until you can afford a second one.

Don't get a new card just to 'get ready' for newer games. Upgrade when you know you need to and don't jump the gun.
