I've been treading water in the mid-range video cards for many years now and am tempted to make the jump to enthusiast. Obviously my choices right now are either the 580 or the 7970, and the biggest reason why I haven't pulled the trigger on a 7970 is because I hear stories about AMD's driver issues. All I can find online are crossfire issues, but are there any major issues with running single-card?
Also, I remember when I had an unlocked 6950 I had to set Powertune to +20% ([H] review explained why) and the Overdrive configuration overrided my Afterburner custom fan profile. Do you have to set +20% on the 7970s?
Thanks
