these are the video cards that imac uses. are they special in any way? does the picture quality with these video cards are better than say... a 6970 radeon?

NO. only gaming performance that is going to matter, picture quality should be similar between the 5000 series of cards. 4670 should have good image quality too but 5000 series obviously is going to have newer generation of UVD features.
 
thank you
what about the 6970 is it far better? or is the 5000 series better?

Na I dont think with a naked eye you are going to be able to tell a difference if you are watching movies or something. It should be similar. I am kinda confused, because 6970 is not really an option for any mac, if you just wanna know the picture quality difference then you should not really worry too much. In Gaming ofcourse the 6970 is a beast compared to anything the imac uses.
 
the quality is all the same, seeing as how mac's have shit for high end games theres not much to worry about. you probably wont see 6k series cards in mac's til march or april of next year. apple still needs to offload their current stock of 5k series cards.
