GTX 480 vs ATI 5970
« on: May 26, 2010, 12:30:40 PM »
hey I have a question I was looking up some vids on youtube...some of them are of course debatable...
What happen is next year I want to build a new system but I really wanted to shoot for a GTX 480 I mean I like nvidia over ATI graphics....but if the ATI card is better...well I dunno I guess i'll have to rethink...what do you guys recommend? or rather which is better between the two?

i guess sadly google it is...
I know one person who has that ATI card...but he originally wanted to get the GTX 480 but due to price issues (or so he claims he got the latter) and then too I don't know anyone who has that card but when I checked this
http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
I saw that the GTX  was on the top at the list whilst the 5970 was at number 4...but when I youtubed some vids like Crysis benchmarks for example...the ATI card performed a little better than the GTX.

5970 and 480 are not even in the same class performance wise or pricewise. THe 480 more compares to a 5870 in both aspects.

That said, the gtx480 is slightly faster but a good bit (generally 100us) more then a 5870 but with that extra speed you have an insane TDP, power requirements and heat generation. MANY schools of thought agree that the 5870 is a much better option for these reasons, even though it is not as fast.
