    Finally buying my card! 6970

    Best warranty/RMA for 6970's on Newegg

    Ok. I'm kind of stuck with ordering from Newegg as I have enough credit there to almost buy one and now I'm freaked out about warranties. Of all of the 6970s on The Egg, what ones will be the easiest to RMA after 30 days if I have issues. I want a solid card but problems do happen and I don't...

    Where else to buy retail, new 6970s

    I don't want to risk getting a used card even though I know most of them aren't bad. Just my personal preference. Besides Newegg and Tiger, who else online that is totally trustworthy to sell me a new card can I order one from. Shipping to United States.

    What's the best 6970. I want cool and quiet.

    Title says it all. What wins these 2 categories. Temp and noise.

    Sapphire 7970 which port to use?

    So I've been out of the pc gaming world for years. I'm using a 60" led tv with 100's of hookups in the back. Hdmi, dvi, VGA, etc. what's the best port on the sapphire 7970 to use. Is there a "best"? It's only going to be used as a single display for games and media.

    6970 vs 7950 3gb

    Bottom line. For single card setups, 60" 1080p. Will the 7950 be better in all ways than a 6970? Ignoring price as we don't know for sure if the 6970 will drop at all, which of the 2 is better?

    6970 vs 7950 vs 7970

    New i7 Gaming Build, everything look ok?

    My biggest concern for this is that everything will work flawlessly with each other. My last build 5 years ago was an absolute nightmare and after 4 mobo's, we figured out the case was defective and kept shorting it out. You know how frustrating that can be. Anyways, here is my build I have...
