I'm planning to build a budget gaming computer now and am torn between the 6950 v 6850.
This is my set of specs:
I have a limited budget right now and am not sure if the 6950 2GB would be worth the money compared to the 6850 1GB.
Local cost of the cards:
Unfortunately they overcharge here for the computer components, and seen here, a $143 difference between the two cards.
Which one should I get?
This is my set of specs:
- Intel i5 2500K
- Samsung DDR3 1333 4GB
- Sapphire HD6950 2GB or HD 6850 1GB
- MSI P67A-C43 (B3)
- Antec Neo ECO 520W
- NZXT M59
- WD Caviar Blue 500GB
- ASUS DRW-24B3ST 24X SATA DVD
- Gaming on a 1440 x 900 monitor
