Just pulled the trigger on an XFX 6950 since it was 15% off. I was leaning towards getting the 6870, but PowerTune and EQAA pushed the 6950 over the edge for me. I'm upgrading from a 4830 so hopefully I should get a big jump in performance.
I was apprehensive because for an extra ~$50, the 6950 seems to jump from a hypothetical 40 fps on the 6870 to 43fps or something on the 6950. I'm really hoping ATI increases the performance greatly with future drivers. They haven't let me down in 6 years, so hopefully I don't get burned this time.
