Graphics card - best value for money?
So, another quick question; which of these would give me the most bang for my buck?
1. Gigabyte GeForce GTX 560Ti 1GB PhysX PCI-Express 2.0, "OC Version" , GDDR5, 2xDVI, HDMI, Windforce 2X, 900MHz --- Base.
2. XFX Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 "Dual Fan " PCI-Express 2.0, 2xDVI, HDMI, 2xmini-DisplayPort, 900MHz --- 56 EUR less than base.
3. Sapphire Radeon HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 PCI-Express 2.0, 2xDVI, HDMI, 2xmini-DisplayPort, 900MHz --- 50 EUR less than base.
4. XFX Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 PCI-Express 2.1, 2xDVI, HDMI, 2xmini-DisplayPort, 800MHz --- 17 EUR more than base.
Thanks in advance. :3

The 560 ti would be my choice, although I'd go with msi's twin frozr 2, or the evga version.
Any other opinions, or is 560 ti really the best choice?
Legendary!
for that price range it's pretty much the best

The 6950 is actually a little better. >.>
Sort of...
In some cases...

MSI Twin Frozr II Geforce 560 TI

it is very easily overclockable with MSI Afterburner and it runs cool
has a nice warranty and it uses military grade parts

Best value for money? Didn't even look at the prices or the listed GPUs, but always HD6870. :P
If you don't like to overclock (like me) but still want cool and quiet card for your money, then get the Gigabyte GTX 560Ti SOC card. I can't find the comparison now, but it is actually quieter and cooler than the MSI version of the same GPU.

The 560ti and the 6950 are both so close.
The 2GB 6950 is ahead of the 560ti in most tests
I'm a total ATI guy so I would probably buy the 6950 2Gb Twin Frozr II

Problem is, the ones in the OP are the only I can choose between... I'm using a site similar to ibuypower.com.
