F34rTheV3n0m Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 ATI 6950(+0) or GTX 560 TI 1GB (-65) or GTX 570 superclocked (+62) Which one should I get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyHorse Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Personally I'd get the 570 if you can. How much are you looking to spend?

BranHorse Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 if you can afford the 570 get it. If you want more bang for your buck go 6950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F34rTheV3n0m Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 money really isnt an issue, its more of, how much better (% wise) is the GTX 570 compared to 560 and 6950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaMigra Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 get 2 6970's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizon Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 get 2 6970's ^ This, i have 2x 5450's atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cefdinir Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 If you can find an Unlockable HD 6950 you could flash the bios to a HD 6970. I have a HD 6970 right now and I plan on getting another for BF3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F34rTheV3n0m Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 I see no need for 2 atm, when prices drop, I'll get another of whatever I get. Btw: Shouldn't 1 570/560/6950 run bf3 at max? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
^TheRumor^ Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 2 570's imo DICE released that a GTX 580 SLI setup will be required to run BF3 with all the detail/bloom on Ultra and AA at 32x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaac Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 what about just getting a 590? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F34rTheV3n0m Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Yea... I'll be running on 1920 x 1080. AMD and nvidia released their drivers to increase performance and if I can just get to High/Ultra, that would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorito^ Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 From what i read from the PCFormat Magazine. They are very close. But overall it is best to get 2x GTX 570. Only getting one wont do much for what you will want to be doing in the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caget1 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Link 2 or get the GTX, i prefer nvidia way more that ATI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyHorse Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 If moneys not an issue the GTX 580 Classified is going to dominate BF3. its about $600 but they just sold out not too long ago on newegg. the GTX 580 However is only about $100 more than the 570 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130587 Oh yea, send me your old one <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what i read from the PCFormat Magazine. They are very close. But overall it is best to get 2x GTX 570. Only getting one wont do much for what you will want to be doing in the next couple of years. In a year or so, I will get a 2nd card of w-e I will get. It's the fact that there is really no need for 2 of such great cards atm. I'm sure 1 GTX 570 can run bf3 close to max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredTacos Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 1 GTX 570 or 1 6950 will run BF3 well. I don't understand the obsession with "maxing" out a game on a budget, but either way, if your CPU is fast and you got plenty of memory, it will run good with either card. Here's a chart with new cards showing performance on BF2, probably not a bad idea to judge performance based on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gtx 590 is $100 more and is more powerful than the classified gtx580. The gtx580 has 3gb of memory vs 1.5 of the normal gtx580, But more memory doesn't mean more power. The classified gtx 580 will give u 4 fps more than the normal gtx 580, The gtx 590 will give 20 fps more than the normal gtx 580 gtx 590 is 2 gtx570 sli.

Wabbit Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Yea, after looking at a few reviews the regular 580 is just a better choice. I recommend to get a gtx 590. Is more money but this card is gonna b on top until Q4 2012- 2013 Nvidia always start the year with low cards, expect the next 6 series not to beat the 590 until the 690 arrives, and yet the 690 will probably have a 10% more beef than the 590. High end cards are good value, bcause u will b good without upgrading for 3- 4 years. if u get a 570 for $ 340 then u save money now, but after 1 year the 570's are gonna end up outdated, The 590 and 580 are cards that u wanna buy, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
