The GTX 680 release prob won't reduce your cards values by much, but it will cost more than $600 to own the 680 when it comes out :rolleyes:

The 7970 clock speeds are amazing! I have CF 6970s and I'm slightly jealous ;)

I have been running Mushkin 2133 Redline at 1.65V for quite awhile now, all while pushing my 2600K over 5.0GHz. I haven't had any problems yet. But, thats not to say that it couldn't affect anything down the road after prolonged use. But, I have been OCing the crap out of this CPU since I got...

This case is already sick looking. Can't wait to see the finished product! Subbed

This is BA, can't wait for some updates!

I have liked all the Antec cases I have owned, the 300, 900, and 1200. I like the looks of this case and the functionality! Nice to see them adding to the cosmetics after years of the same designs!

IDK, about all of these bad experiences, and I would be equally as POed if I had dealt with some of the same situations as I have read here. But, my experience with ASUS RMA has been completely opposite, and one of the main reasons I have always bought from them! Just in the last 2 years...

Wow, revenant that is an amazing idea/display! Very creative.

I would run a driver sweeper 1st and then reinstall the drivers.

I have to disagree sam. I have had multiple RMA's with ASUS, MSi, and Corsair, and have yet to have a problem! Heck, with ASUS I get my replacement before I even send the defective GPU or mobo. I love the cross-ship option ASUS has on the higher end components :)

LMAO, ref 6970's are unreal when you crank them up. I have 2 6970's that I am putting under water, because of the noise those things kick out! MSI Twin Frozr is a good suggestion!

idk about XFX, never dealt with them. But, I know ASUS is awesome to deal with and MSI is a close 2nd in my exp.

I will echo what a few others have said...AMD has caught up with drivers! I run (2) xFired 6970's and 5870's before that, with no major driver problems! But, lately I have heard more users with Nvidia driver probs, which used to rarely happen ;)

Since you are playing at 1920x1080, the difference between AMD's 2GB and Nvidia's 1.5GB of vram, is probably a moot point! If you are deciding between the 6990, (2) 6950/6970's and (2) 570's, then I would say it matters which games you play! If the games you play are better coded for the green...

I would go with the AMD 6950, the 2GB's of vram will help with the larger resolutions. I am a huge ASUS fan, their customer service is phenomenal! Plus if you plan to overclock, the ASUS cards will typically OC better than the competition!

Try any res!

ATI dropped eyefinity with the 5xxx series cards, they are now implementing the extra vram that eyefinity needs with the standard 2GB on the 6950 and 6970 cards. If you want a monster res (eyefinity) you need more vram to make it work well!

With that res, I would personally go with the HD 6950, especially if you have multi-monitor gaming plans!
