EVGA GeForce GTX 470 1.2GB at $260
or the
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 2GB at $275

Im not really sure Ive read reviews and checked the specs on both and Im leaning more towards the Radeon 6950.

Please help me decide or if there is a different card the out performs either one of those thats under $300.

Thanks

The 6950 for sure, if you have the money. The 470 is totally overrated, and you may be able to flash the 6950 to a 6970 still. But you probably don't know about that.

Anyway, the 6950 is overall the better card.

Alright thanks.

And I was wondering if the 6950 would fit in my case.I have the NZXT LEXA S LEXS its 20.79" x 7.72" x 18.90".

or even better get a 6950 with 1 gb ram its cheaper for 50 usd and it has practically 0% loss since today's games never require 2 gb of memory. Go with 2gb setup only if u have multy monitors or plan to.
