The 7950 should be quite a bit cheaper and not that far behind in performance fyi--a better value.

You need to quote a post or tag a member or else they won't get a notification you replied to them.

XFX & ASUS both make fine cards.

My personal list of brands that I would buy from are:

• ASUS
• MSI
• XFX
• Gigabyte
• Galaxy

Of course, everyone has their own list.

That's because I stole his picture. Don't tell him.

 awesome, for the price im going to have to go with the asus card. a little  ugly, but so op

I personally have a xfx 5770 and have had zero issues in the 3+ years I've owned it. Not loud, not hot, very stable. But maybe the quality has gone down in the last few years?

I had a  XFX 7770 in one of my rigs it was very loud and ran hot. it worked but i was not happy with its noise/heat. 

[AsRiversRunRed]

Just order the ASUS Radeon HD 7970, Thanks guys! how do i get my freegames? does that come in the box with the card?
