    omg stop bitchfighting in my topic, create your own :)

    I'm not replacing yet, just informing. I have 2x 6970 right now but I don't like the Crossfire setup. Not one game I play supports it :(

    Well, AMD has not been doing too well lately..

    They kicked a lot of workpower and skill out of their company in order to save money.. Driver updates have been a bit messy lately as well.. A new update gets pushed every week, to fix issues the last update caused before and so on.. lol

    While nvidia lacks frequent weekly/monthly the updates with earlier models, at least they have things under control (for now). They do push updates at least every half year even for the legacy cards.

    While AMD gives a latest quick fix for minium money, their product life cycle and support is rather bad.

    You're pretty much on your own, but i wouldn't pay 300

    Thanks I will. I will have it tomorrow I'll let you know :)

    I was first thinking of upgrading my entire system but that would be BS, I still got a Maximus IV with an i7 2600K and 16 GB RAM, so I'm sure I'm still good in that department and I didn't want to spend

    Yes it does :P

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti (860 MHz)

    I could overclock as well but I want a stable system that can run for months. Besides most ever processor usage I've seen in games was about 30% ;)

    tbh processors are rarely the bottleneck in games anyway. My i5-2500k hasn't had any issues yet.

    Liking the card, looks beastly!

    Exactly, one should buy something which lasts for maxium amount of time.

    Bought this set at 2011 start, and it will do for another 3 years at least.

    when the 14nm set comes i might update for good.
