My computer is almost ready, last part is the GPU.

My components are
corsair H100
intel i5 2500K
16 GIGS VENGEANCE, CORSAIR
corsair ax850
ASUS sabertooth MOBO P67
CRUCIAL m4 SSD 128 gigs

I want to play High end games, like BF3 and more,

now give me best option,

i want reliability, quality and I don't plan on overclocking, but don't want to leave the option Out!

AMD or NVIDIA

either is fine, some will say AMD, some Nvidia ... both can be good, both can be bad just get a 7970 or 680, or if budget concious then 6850 amd imo

Nvidia GTX 680 is currently the fastest GPU

Thats not true, They are almost on par. 1 is better in some parts, other is better in other parts. There are multiple tests and benchmarks however they arent accurate yet, due to the fact that drivers arent fully optimized yet.

Resolution?

What country do you live in and how much can you spend?

Most important question.

Also not only is the 680 faster than the 7970, its cheaper.

 

[MrTOOSHORT]

Get the GTX 580 since the price is dropping.

I love this the 680 is faster garbage take a 7970 clock it to the 680 speeds and watch the 680 get eaten.

 

[Ha-Nocri]

wow, those 580 prices really dropped. Now waiting for more Kepler to make 7850 worth buying...

Me likey, I will look hard at the 7970, how does a 7970 compare to a 7950 or even a 7870! Any way I want a good lasting one, I know they come out every year with something new! I just have been buying these parts for months now because money is tight, but I don't want to skimp on the important parts.

Thanks ALL

Cool, I too am thinking the 7850 or 7870 may be the way to go, also how do you like your sniper case. Besides the GPU the case is my last part to the puzzle.
