Depends. Newegg has GTX series for cheaper, but if you want to stay with ATi, I think it's a little over the edge. Plus it's overclocked so it might not have a warranty.

Newegg doesn't ship to the UK.

5970 is at minimum 20% faster than any GTX series card.

5970 is DX11 support, GTX series doesn't.

All factory overclocked cards have a warranty.


Honestly, I don't really think many people need the power of dual 4870x2, let alone a 5970. Wait till the price drops or send that 4870x2 my way.
