See rig in sig. 1900x1200.
Can't make up my mind between GTX 560 SLI and 6950 w/6970 bios. My board can't do xfire otherwise I'd go dual 6870s. The thing is I like to run native rez with minimum frames that don't dip below 40 fps, and am looking at Metro 2033, Crysis 2, etc gamer quality w/minimum AAA/16AF.
The 6950 can be had for $260 or so AR, 560 GTX is going to run $500. I know the 560 SLI is going to perform a lot better and I'm probably going to be happier in the long run, but right now AMD has the price/performance edge IMO and I'm having a hard time justifying Nvidia pricing. I've ruled out 460 SLI as I only lose about 10 in min. frames as compared to a 6950 w/6970 bios, and for that difference I'd rather just go single card.
So I spend more than I think is warranted, go 560 SLI, but have absolutley no regret with frames, or go 6950/w 6970 mod, save alot of cash, but may deal with minimum frames below 40 with no chance of xfire in the future to improve performance.... thoughts? Yes I know this is subjective....
