I want to get a DX 11 card, even though my 4870 crossfire are still great in every game. Its just that the DX 11 games have been rolling out and I have $400 laying around to spend and I have been playing these games feeling like i'm missing out on the updates.
The GTX 570 and the 6970 seem absolutely identical in reviews, price, and benchmarks. I have no preference between ATI and Nvidia, both have been good to me, so idk which I should get.
I guess it goes down to manufacturers or if there any any "special" versions of either card out that clearly outperforms the other, along with overclockability on top of that. Do either these cards, or a model from a specific manufacturer, shine ahead of the other in this regard? I enjoy overclocking graphics quite a bit so that would be a huge plus.
One of the main reasons why I want to upgrade is that I find that i'm playing a lot of games in Windowed Mode... and I have a crossfire setup. I want the same, or more, performance with a single card. Also the 2nd video card when its in use interferes with my soundcard at times and its ridiculously annoying. I have 2 monitors and I hate how games basically minimize when you go to the 2nd monitor, so i use windowed mode which renders crossfire useless.
