Whats the difference between these 2 cards?

[Sanosuke_Sagara]

To be honest I'd probably get a 7 series card and forget the Hybrid Crossfire setup with the APU. A single 7750 would be a lot faster than what you're looking at and there are a few fanless versions too. I have the Sapphire 7750 Ultimate in my HTPC and it is absolutely awesome.

 

 

Waco your always so late to the party!!!!

 

i just ordered it!!! grrrrr, i got the 6670, it was like a 100bux on newegg with a 15 dollar rebate... so i figured I would go ahead and get it.. and if there was any problems with it, I would have some time to RMA it and trouble shoot it before Diablo 3 hits, and I am also moving back to college this summer to start summer school.. so I wanted the system all ready and finished tweaking by then.

 

yeah i was looking at the 7750... but it was like 30bux more, and it doesn't have that great of reviews yet.. plus i figured it would be a waste of money on me buying an APU if i didn't end up using the crossfire abilities... so i guess this way I would still be using what i bought kinda..

 

 

ummm I hope i don't regret not getting the 7750.. because there was a Sapphire 7750 i was really looking at buying.. but i guess its too late now.. i just ordered the 6670 literally 10 minutes ago..

 

 

Thanks for all of your help!!! i ended up going with the Sapphire just because it has that DDR5... hopefully it will be better then that DDR3 from HIS.

You'll still be happy with it I'm sure.

spectre,

 

 

the effective rate is mislabeled on the newegg add. the DDR5 is 4000MHz vs the 1600MHz of the DDR3

 

@ Stoner, I agree about the fan-less, I hate'em, but can you believe this?

Thx newegg really needs to address these labeling issues.

I think you will be okay unless you demand high AA settings etc. Have a look at the Batman Arkham Asylum numbers for example.

and you will have about 1.7x that Graphic HP.

Radeon HD 6670 is better than other. You can get best performance from this card.

Hi

 

Does the ddr5 gets downclocked to ddr3 when hybrid crossfire is on?, because 6550d use the main memory. I've read that on youtube comments, but I'm not sure

 

sorry my english

I have also heard the Crossfire is limited to the motherboard's memory speed, slower than DDR3 or DDR5.

Does seem unlikely though.
