My rig for BF3, Video card dilema...

Because it is the season for games, building a PC now can't be a bad choice really. So many great games are coming out even if he doesn't enjoy BF3 I don't think it will matter. Anyways he was probably a BF2 fan so he already knows that he likes the game. The beta was amazing, the only people...

$1200 gaming PC

I have been reading up a lot on it all and I think I am going to settle with a single 570. I have seen the performance of the 6950 and I don't think the 2gb will really benefit me on my resolution will it?

But the reviews I have read say that it has problems with microstuttering, even worse since it is CF.

Is the 6950 really that much better than 560 or 570 for peformance/$?

$1200 gaming PC

I currently have the 4890 but I have had a few problems with the card and for some reason I just feel like I want an nvidia card, especially since I always like to match CPU and GPU (intel and nvidia or AMD and ATI, I like things in order). I will shop around but right now I am looking at...

$1200 gaming PC

I should probably mention, I am very fickle with what I buy. I change my mind easily and I make sure I am getting the best deal I can. This concerns me, I am going to do some more research on this. I posted this on several other sites and they all reccomend the SLI 560. I found this article on...

Alright that makes sense but what kind of performance does the 6950 have on games that come out recently? I am having trouble finding results for things like RAGE or Deux Ex.

$1200 gaming PC

This is what keeps frustrating me with this build, the graphics card. At first I was trying to decide between 560, 560ti, 570 and 580. I know people with 580s that weren't able to run BF3 on high settings. I am building this PC with BF3 in mind so I hesitate when I hear that anything less than...

Why the 6950s? The performance seems pretty bad compared to the 560s.

New computer or upgrade?

Cool thanks, hopefully everything goes well. So sort of a more focused idea now, what if I take the PSU (or would I need a new one?) and case and make a new PC and then give my brother the parts for a PC for a birthday gift. Would that work out to be cheaper, or would I actually save money if I...
