So im a bit torn between 6850 and 7770
They cost exactly the same from where i can get them (€120). The 6850 clearly has an advantage in most conventional situations while the 7770 pulls ahead in some situations where the hd 6xxx series just sucks (like skyrim) and in compute performance. I've seen some cards improve tremendously with driver updates a good while after their release, question is does the 7770 have the potential to catch up to the 6850 like that or not?
Also open to nvidia suggestions all though their cards dont seem to have much to offer at that price point, no used cards since i get 20% tax return from store bought stuff + warranty and a nice box.
