Is there any difference in performance (FPS) between the two cards? I know the DS is dual shot for the fans it has, but does it amp up the performance at all or is it just gonna blow the hot air from the card, heating up the entire case more?

Oh yeah, and GTX 570 or Radeon 6970? Probably GTX 570 then step up to GTX 580. Suggestions?

You know I had to put that in there.

You, again. Just go away, seriously. You obviously don't plan to get any of these cards, and contemplating a 580 for 1440x900 is just full retardC_Rule

Did you just compare 2 GTX 580s? The difference won't be that huge.

And of course, I get moderated. GS mods are starting to piss me off.

I love how I'm the one who gets moderated, when old mate has made several threads on the same topic, and doesn't seem interested in anyone's advice.

I swear, this is my last question. That is all I need, just the difference between the two is all.

Also, I have taken everyone's advice, it is just they are all so mixed it is hard to know who to believe. But I seem to like Hardware Heavens Reviews, since they do real world gameplay. I only started several polls because the other ones, well, died.

Just exactly how many cards have you asked about withing the last 2 weeks? all the ones you're saying are complete overkill for your display. Just get a normal 580 and be done with it. Its a great card

Why get a 570 if you're just going to step up to a 580? Just get a 580 for f***'s sake. :P

AFAIK, that was his fault. Most of the OT forum followers would agree to that.
