I will never be buying a Sapphire video card again!! I bought a 6870 a month ago and it had problems and so RMA'd it and got 2 DOA replacements, not one but TWO DOA REPLACEMENTS!!! Fuckin assholes, they are depriving me off BF3!!! :(
I'm just wondering but which card is better: Gigabyte ati hd6950 1gb OC Sapphire ati hd6950 2gb I'm putting one of those parts into: AMD Phenom II x4 970 3.5Ghz Corsair 8gb DDR3 Dominator 1000wt PSU SATA3 1TB 64M SATA3 Driver Gaming Case (5x120mm fans) Hydro H60 cooler (Replaces manufacturer heatsink) So tell me which one is good on that build
Well i dont know HIS, but I know Sapphire so i don't know. I'd buy Sapphire because thats a good name XD. No not really. Seriously buy Saphire. But a 6970 is 250€ so it cant be 139$? So normally it must be about 320$
LOL dude i have to learn reading XD. Yeah dude but get a 6870 or 6970 ^^. 6870 is not so expensive. The most important thing is that you just have to know how much money you can/want to spend.
@alexislol321 Both cards will perform well, and depending on the games you play, each card can potentially put out better FPS than the other. That said, some charts show the 6970 as running a little louder than the nvidia competition. My best answer would be to do some research and compare these cards yourself.
@BlackHatFTW bcuz mayb we wana kno about pcs too? i hav a imac myself because its the best for games and photoshop and stuff and i just ordered 2 of these graphics card (my dad pays bcuz i only get $20 a week in allowance) and my pc will be one of the best in the world only 5 ppl in the world has crossfire bcuz its so expensive.
im getting the VTX 3D Radeon HD 6950 one. is that a good GPU, i am paying £210 for it so i hope it is..., ( or is there anything better for arround £210 )
They send you a link to the EA website and there you purchase the game with the cupon number they give you via your Email address, offcourse that you need to register first your card in sapphire webpage. :)
Wow ur so inconcerdorate, he uses a mac dysplay because its a 1600p monitor HERPA DERP
He has an excelent gaming machine and hes a nice guy he uses that MONiTOR coz its a real good monitor and its crazy and epic resolution
Also mate he didnt spend a dollar on it, due to he is a renound unboxer and reveiwmen
Companies like sapphire and what not send him these things for free if you dont understand how advertising works, they get theiir product reveiw and seen by public that want
Ok, i have a question... How on earth is it possible for a 500 watt psu to run those specs: Intel core i7 2600k, radeon hs 6970, 8 gigs of ram, sabertooth p67, 2x hdd's, blu-ray player and a dvd-player????
It's funny that even with the video card makers nowadays trying to build the more expensive boards enclosed into a box, mostly to protect the very sensitive chips from ESD damage or mechanical hazards, people will still prove Murphy's law is always valid and will go poke on and hold the board by the pins / connectors / contacts.
first time i bought a computer, an old man came to me and said: whats that? i said a computer. he said it's a very cool computer and asked me: can you watch a movie on it XD that was fucking funny XD
that suitcase is cool, but the developers are starting going crazy, you know that the one of the 4 GB version (i think gigabyte's one) has an assault rifle as a box? lol...
It's a video card for the PC that lets you play games to the full ability. Better than any console. In order for the card to work better you need a good CPU and memory which is your RAM. check out Crysis 2 game play to see what I'm talking about. You get a card like that then you can play games like that.
Ok. This is great review. But both linux and macosx amd drivers suck a lot compared to their windows versions. So this card is nearly unusable on your mac/linux box. But nvidia - no problem. I hope AMD push more in opensource, but I think they wont.
@bkujamjar all AMD cards from all companies are relatively the same. Sometimes a company will add an extra game (like BFBC V in this video) or accesories. But all of them are based on a reference design from AMD so they all are relatively the same. Only cards that include anything like overclocked edition are different because they are slightly more powerful, however, they cost more.
when will they start shrinking the cards! I have two cards, taking up 4 pci slots completely and are also making it hard to access a fifth one (the slot below the bottom card)
@webeee01 there are some kind of FPS (frames per second) fetishist´s who totaly needs every single frame they can get to satisfact there selves. there mostly called exhaust´s or just hardcore nerds
The number of ATI reviews of this site is huge compared to nvidia ones. Does this means parciality? By the way. That card has an ugly cooler. The red stripes :(
