Need help deciding

Featured Replies

Hi guys, I'm torn between GTX560Ti and GTX570. I need to upgrade to be able to play BF3 and can't decide between the two. The only game I play is BFBC2 and BF3 besides simming and wondered which card to get. I'm looking to future-proof my system. I can spend the dosh on GTX570 but have read reports where they suggest overclocking the 560Ti can match GTX570's performance. I couldn't live with myself if I spent 280quid on the GTX570 knowing that I could have saved a 100quid by going for the GTX560Ti.. Any suggestions would be valuable. Thanks a ton!

I think this goes more into the http://forum.avsim.n...ds-and-drivers/ section. Remember, overclocking is a risk. I would always take higher, non-overclocking performance over overclocking risks all the way. What is your current graphics card?

Since you like gaming too, I'd go with the 570. For value the 560Ti can't be beaten, but the 570 will give better performance either way.

Also looking for a new GPU. If I had the money I would get the EVGA GTX580 right away, but unfortunately I don't. I did not hear that many great things about the GTX570. I heard that it gets hot really easily, and burns also. The GTX560ti is the best value for the price though. I would get the GTX560ti if you want to decide between those two. A good one is the MSI GTX560ti Hawk.
