advis for R5000 system

[JPS]

Yes it is. That's why I recommended the AX6950 as the 2GB VRAM will benefit you and it's got a 256bit bus.

Yes i took a look at that,but i cant understand.

The HD 7790 is a newer card,for the same price???

Can you please explain more on this

The 6950 was the previous series of GPUs from AMD, while the 7790 are newer. Hence the same price

The 6950 is a better card. More VRAM, higher bus.

 

[JPS]

The 6950 is a better card. More VRAM, higher bus.

so instead of the 7790 you would go for the 6950?

better performance and graphics?

Thanks bud

jih its been changes after changes,but i don't want to buy stuff that im going to regret.

Builds always change. Even at the last minute. You'll find ways to cut money somewhere and put it into a different part.

Looking forward to seeing your machine once it's built.

Look around for the 6950. It is a great card and you will find them cheap as they were imported when the dollar/rand was lower (If you can find them anywhere...). Can't go wrong with CoolerMaster and Corsair for PSU's. Everything looks good

Their not bad at all. I've ordered many parts from them in the past and have not experienced any issues regarding their product or service.

dont you find them a bit expensive?if they are the only ones that have the card ill have to get it from them.

so far its only them.....

why is this?

 

[DuckKnuckle]

Well for the 6950, R1 695 is a steal. Go onto www.pricecheck.co.za and have a look at the regular prices.

Yes they do tend to be a bit more expensive than the next guy but personally i'm fine with that. I've become accustom to their quality of service and i'm happy to pay the extra bit to keep experiencing it.
