I'd personally go with the 6970 or 6950. The extra ram could be of use later on when you decide to upgrade your monitor or go with eyefinity. In addition, games like BF3 could use the extra memory.

Any pictures? As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.

Using a Razer Imperator - It's meh. Looking to swap for a G9X. :x

^ That. Unless if you plan on crossfire and going to a higher resolution later, just grab the 1GB.

The 6970 is meant to compete with the GTX580; not the 570. So, 6970 > 570.

Good to see that awesome Corsair customer support! In other news, thanks for the great review!

^ Yes, try it in a different PC. Best way to go at it.

@ OP You'll be fine.

It's time to upgrade. To da 2700k! In all seriousness, try running a cpu and gpu benchmark tool like 3dmark vantage and 3dmark11. Then compare your scores with others and see if it's the CPU or GPU or mobo at fault.

Thanks wagoo!

Yeah, that's probably not it but who knows! Maybe you just have a defective unit. I'm scared of buying a U2410 now. This makes me have second thoughts. :(

Here is a comparison chart: http://www.htomega.com/faq18.html I myself have the Claro Halo XT and there is quite a noticeable difference between it and onboard audio. I have the Corsair SP2500 though. I got lucky and snagged it up for $50 off CL. It was totally worth my ~2 hour bus ride! You...

At that resolution and even at 1080P, games should be very playable. I would wait until the 7800 series comes out and compare the performance and price vs getting another 460.

I'd just wait. You might as well. Or, if you could snag a Q9650/Q9550 for cheap, it'd be worth your while.

^ PhysX is more of a gimmick. Only a handful of games is able to use it. But yeah, you can use it for PhysX.
