GTX 580 vs. ATI 6970?

[maclean525]

NVidia and ATI have made their beds. You pick your priorities you pick your card.

#1. Single screen, lower res, money not an issue. NVidia ALL THE WAY. That's their sweet spot, incredible frame rates.

#3. Multi-screen eyefinity or very large resolutions, cheaper price. Absolutely go 6970.

I personally run Eyefinity at 5760x1080 so I have to go ATI. At only $370 compared to $500+ x2 for NVidia cards there's no comparison. If I was an fps or single screen guy who was looking for absolute maximum frame rates at any cost I'd go with the 580.
