I am building a new system, and I had a great deal on a Sapphire 7870, however the promo code time ran out because I didin't order it fast enough. I'm approaching my budget maximum, so price really matters, but I found these two possible cards:
The 1st one is an asus for about $185 on sale right now, and the second is by gigabyte, $15 more. I was wondering if there would be much of a difference between the two, and if it is worth the extra $15.
I do play to be overclocking, and I will mostly be playing games, video editing, and bitcoin mining using the card.
Thanks for the help, and here is what I think the rest of the build will be:
Mail in rebates are not immediate, you still need the inital amount before the rebate when yo. order, and it can take up to months before recieve the rebate or visa gift card back.
It's 185/170 w/ rebate, is that adequate? Will it overclock, or run as well as the ASUS? Essentially what i'm asking is getting the ASUS worth the extra $15?
