Hi Guys

Sooo I might have the opportunity to Trade my

MSI HD7970 3GB Lightning BE
for a
Sapphire HD7970 6GB Vapor-x GHz Edition

Ive been looking at the difference and the Sapphire is got slightly better GPU, MEM clocks than my MSI and has and extra 3GB RAM.

I know I dont need 6GB, But this means I dont have to upgrade in along Time.

Whats your thoughts on these two cards?

Am I making a good trade?

Thanks
 
Straight trade or do you need to add cash?

How much warranty is left on your card vs the one you trading for?

Speed = draw faster
vRAM = draw more
That added vRAM is only good if you are running multiple screens or 1440p resolution.
 
straight trade.

core is 50 more
mem is 100 more

Truth be told, unless you are playing in 4k or have a 3+ monitor setup, you won't see much of a difference. If any.

Would rather stick with the current card. A straight swop with no comeback or warranty - not something I would do.
