i choose 6950 1GB over TFII.

but now i am inclined towards HAWK. reason is i want a TFIII cooler :-D. and 6950 TFIII will be 16k(4k over my initial budget). so i am settling with HAWK which will cost me 14600 inc. shipping (2.6k over my initial budget).

That's an excellent choice. Really, you'll never miss the performance of a 6950 1gb because that card has an insane 950mhz clock speed out of the box. You don't even need to further overclock at fullhd.

Congrats again.:smile:

What next ? Bulldozer!!!! :wink:

@Jassy pg.11 now :grin: & our hero finally has finally decided his GPU.

@batman, next maybe a CPU cooler (if not bulldozer).

MSI Global – News

N560GTX-Ti Hawk Is a Dual Overclocking Champion: 3DMark 11 and Unigine Heaven (DX11)
While the N580GTX Lightning is equipped with superior overclocking capabilities, the power of MSI's N560GTX-Ti Hawk is not to be underestimated, either. The Belgian overclocker Massman applied LN2 extreme overclocking with MSI's N560GTX-Ti Hawk to raise the core frequency to a whopping 1500Mz— the highest for the GTX 560 Ti yet—and set a world record for a single-card GTX 560 Ti on 3DMark 11 with a score of 7611. In addition, its score of 1652.71 on Unigine Heaven (DX11) has also broken the single-card GTX 560 Ti world record, making N560GTX-Ti Hawk a dual champion.

Guru3D has OCed the 6950 TFIII over 1GHz on air. So under LN2, it should reach much higher. Nice cooler is this. Would really love to get one, when I would go for CFX. And also a cooler running card at the top slot helps. :)

Back to school!!
^^ The TFIII cooler is the beast, also the redesigned power phase is great, so is the vrm cooling, you wouldn't believe how effective vrm cooling is, on my lightning the vrms never cross 65c even under max load(crysis 2, design garage, metro 2033), thats just the vrms, the stuff that supposed to go 100c in gpus, memory never crosses 60c, its so damn cool.
