True Evil Never Dies
Its time to upgrade my GPU, and as I had considered while assembling my rig I went for in search of the second MSI 460 Hawk. Its currently at 11.4k.
Though its depressing to go for an old card at this point of time, a few searches yielded the shocking result:
The performance of stock GTX 460 SLI is at par/better than the GTX 580.
(See here or here)That too at 10k less .
But I might have a chance to sell off my present card, and if I do what will be my present choice @ 15k considering SLI/CFX in mind:
MSI 560Ti Hawk @ 14.9k
or
MSI 6950 2GB Twin Frozr II/OC @ 15k
The 560 seem to have better (?) cooler and the alluring PhysX, while
6950 performs better in most scenarios, have more OC headroom than the HAWK and also the elusive Bios unlocking to 6970.
Guys, which card to choose or shall I stick to 460 SLI? Please help.
[Even Tom's recommended the 6950 single or SLI]
P.S.: Monitor res 1920x1080. PSU Corsair TX750
