Daragh Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 So the 6950 is a decent card... but not for GPU rendering unfortunatly anyway to prevent rambling I'll post the story in a very short format Brother can't as fast as he needs to even with GPU rendering He needs a new card as his work centres around animation and graphic design Looking at either 7970, 670, 680 or one of the cards in the Firepro, Quattaro series Is it worth the upgrade from a 6950 to a 7970 is basically what I'm asking, while I listed the other cards I just need a baseline thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Nvidia pretty much has a big advantage for rendering. IIRC the 5 series from Nvidia is a bit stronger in GPU compute than the newer 6 series cards. A GTX 570/580 would probably be a good buy depending on the specific software he's using. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
