Well I know Nvidia was a sponsor for BF2. But of course that was 6 years ago.

Just found some benchmarks, a 570 beats a 6970 by about 10 frames per second.

According to these they are equal:

DICE?

EA and Nvidia seems to have a close relationship, TWIMBP (tha way it's ment to be played "by Nvidia") is the norm for most EA's A titles.

But most radeon plays these games fluedly at very high framerates too because the consoles keep the lid on for serious graphic.

(No, I didn't mean Nvidia does really ANYTHING better than AMD but TWIM. is something AMD havnt managed as sucsessful as Nvidia, consoles are restricting devs. to make games more graphically advanced, just like crysis 2 witch only run DX9c.)

Does he even say what settings he used to do those benchmarks?

Why would you trust him over 3dguru, techspot, hardware cannucks, etc?

I would have to say the GTX570 beats out the HD6970 in some games, and in some games its the reverse...

On Average comparison, I would say that they truly are on par with one another. Through and through!

I dont want to make a new thread, but can a 650 run 2 570s, a 570 recommends a 550 watt supply.

yep, but 6950 is really the sweet spot for graphics cards this gen. It is not that far behind either the 6970 or the 570 and when you overclock it, it surpasses both cards and comes close to a 580. All this for less than $250 for the 1gb and $260 for the 2gb

I would say no. If so, you are really going to be pushing it. I would really want a 850+ PSU with a setup like that. That doesn't even take into consideration optical drives, HDD's, fans and any overclocks you may desire. I am running two GTX 460's heavily overclocked and am using a Corsair TX850.

id say amd my reasoning is simply that dice has game bundles and exclsuives cards from amd.. while from nvidia there are none..

visiontek, sapphire both have bfbc2 editions and both bfbc2 and moh2010 are a part of the gaming evolve program.
