HD6970 or GTX570?

[LinearHD]

I can't decide between the two, theyre both basically the same price and they both have pros and cons, and I just wanted to know what others thought of this

 

[Fear]

Nvidia all the way

 

[LinearHD]

I knew you'd vote for one of them, you gave me the spec with the 570 haha

 

[Theunderdog]

<3 Nvidia all the way!

 

[RichH]

Nvid for me as well, but http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/292?vs=306 throws up some interesting results

 

[LinearHD]

Haha let's wait for the AMD boys to read this XD

Another vote for Nvidia here Their GTX500 series cards are fantastic Will be getting one myself soon I expect

I see the AMD supporter is a bit shy and not left a comment

 

[LinearHD]

HAHAHAHAHAHA i was just thinking that!

I'd say 570.

What is it they say?

"AMD gives you more bang for your buck...but if you have enough bucks, go nVidia"

I think thats it...

... or if you want more accurate colour reproduction. If it's just for gaming I guess the consensus is nVidia. If you're going to be using it as a media centre for DVD/blu-ray playback and/or photo manipulation then steer clear of nVidia, their cards cut a lot of corners when it comes to processing video & general colour regurgitation.
The AMD cards are far superior (even the low end ones) to nVidia (even the higher end ones) for deeper blacks, higher contrast and less ghosting on moving images when moving across high contrast boundaries.

Lol +rep Gorman XD

 

[vanthus]

Well,seems I'm the only one so far to vote AMD,but only cos i've got one.
I have a 5870 & having no problems with it,but to be honest i kind of regret not sticking with nVidia.

 

[LFFPicard]

Nvidia has Physics also so lees strain on the CPU.

Also Nvidia does not cut corners on video/photo minipulation, they are far superior to AMD, just look at all those CUDA cores! How many does AMD have?

 

[Gorman]

If people are going to make claims, either side of the fence, about specific advantages one way or the other i must say again:
