[QUOTE="Baurus_1"][QUOTE="C_Rule"]
If you think AMD have better price/performance, across the board, you should do some research before you do your next build.C_Rule



No, YOU are the one that needs to do the research.

Nvidia GPUs are overpriced. AMD GPUs are a far better value.



570: $320
6970: $350

Prices were taking from Newegg.com, using the cheapest model, for each card.

As you were saying?

6970 wrecks the 570, especially in Tri-Crossfire versus Tri-SLI

LOL @ the 570's 1.2GB of VRAM. For that matter LOL @ the standard 580's 1.5GB of VRAM. And let's not even talk about the ridiculously overpriced 3GB 580.

You fail again.

And YOU were saying?

LOL!!!!

[QUOTE="GTR12"]1. Change the CPU to a i5 2500kGTR12

Don't listen to this. Stick with the 2600k. It's better.

ASUS makes the best motherboards.

Its not a 2600k to begin with, and do you even know how its better?

Prove that ASUS makes the best mobo.

2600k is the best gaming CPU available at the moment, and I'm not going to go into the details why. If you are that clueless, you can research those details yourself.

Also, ASUS has made the best gaming motherboards for the last decade, and that has not changed. Again, if you are clueless as to why, go research that yourself also.

1. Change the CPU to a i5 2500kGTR12

Don't listen to this. Stick with the 2600k. It's better.

2. Change to a p67 or z68 mobo.GTR12

Yes, either one is fine. ASUS makes the best motherboards.

Look at the AMD 6950 or GTX560 TiGTR12

Don't bother with the Nvidia graphics card.

Also, the Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced is the best full tower case available these days. Second best would be the Cooler Master HAF X.

Just remember to stick with AMD GPUs. They offer much better price/performance ratio than Nvidia GPUs. And AMD GPUs offer Morphological Anti-Aliasing which Nvidia GPUs do not.

BTW, Nvidia Physx is pretty much irrelevant.

MLAA isn't an AMD independent feature, they just offer it in their drivers, it works fine on Nvidia cards. And there is FXAA that can be used with any game anyways, and nvidia will probably have SRAA in their drivers sometime soon Physx is hardly mediocre or irrelevant, especially when you are going by the standards of MLAA in drivers being some killer feature for AMD :lol:ferret-gamer

Sorry, but Physx is crap. Pure crap.

And good luck getting MLAA to work properly with Nvidia GPUs.

AMD GPUs (in general) = the best bang for your buck

Nvidia GPUs (in general) = the worst bang for your buck

If I like to listen to loud music. Should I get the card? or would I be good without it?Stein102

If you are talking about a sound card, I would first try the onboard sound card that comes with your motherboard, and see if you like the sound. Get a quality motherboard. ASUS makes the best motherboards.

I dont, and your an AMD fanboy, what about the 4xx gen series of scaling?

Specifically 2 GTX460's beating out a single GTX480, and then the very simple claim of Nvidia has physx?

GTR12
LOL @ Physx! Physx is mediocre and irrelevant.
