    AMD Radeon HD 6990 vs Radeon HD 7970 GPU

    I have a PC at home and mostly I use it for the purpose of game. I want to buy a new graphic card but I am confused between the two i.e. the radeon 6990 and the radeon 7970. I have seen much of the graphic card but I am stuck in between these two. I want to get from the best. Both of them are kind of great regarding the performance fact. Does any know which the better from these two?

    I am using the PC for my personal use like gams , social network. For the purpose of game I have put the graphic card i.e ADM radeon 7970. This is the best if you want to buy the graphic card. I would say it is the single card solution. It runs cooler with less power consumption and it overclocks easily. So I would recommend you to go with radeon 7970 graphic card. But regarding the price issue the 6990 graphic is less costly than 7970. The 6990 graphic is of $500 and 7970 graphic is of $ 625.

    Well I don’t think that the 7970 graphic is faster than the 6990. I am using the ADM radeon 6990 graphic it is really fast and have much more graphic then the 7970 graphic card. It is faster than the 7970 graphic at some extent. The price of the 6990 graphic is less than the 7970 graphic. If you want to get a new graphic let me tell that these graphic card is more than enough. Instead of going with the 7970 graphic you can get these 6990 graphic and can save the money to some other use.

    HD 7970 has got much more increased future driver performance. As it has the new architecture it will have more scope of improvement. These HD 7970 is a direct 11.1 card which is not been released. It will be coming out until the time of windows 8. See the future potential of the HD7970 will come at the time that windows 8 will be released. As these 7970 was the latest one I would suggest you to get these latest one. It will be good currently and great in the future.

    Well I think that the 7970 graphic will be an crossfire in the future. As these is the new one the driver will not be matured as much as the 6990 graphic card. While graphic card 6690 will also have certain issues like Micro-stuttering. I have the graphic 6990 and I had played the game BF3 only it is smoother with the help of graphic card 6990. See if you are switching the CPU then the 7970 graphic is better than the 6990 graphic card.
