Will the HD 7790 be worth buying?

Hello everyone on Tek Syndicate,

My question is: will the 7790 be worth buying because the 7850 is only 15-20 euros more expensive. It's definitely worth buying over a 7770. 

Prices will start at 130 euros for a basic 7790, whereas the 7770 costs +/- 100 euros and the 7850 costs 150 euros.

I think the 7790 will be a great value for 130 euros, because it almost performs the same as a 7850 for less money.
Estimated time of launch is begin April. 

What do you guys think about this new graphics card? Because my original plan was to buy a 7770 for my personal build, or should I hold off until the 7790 comes out and buy that one?

 

 

Eh, I wouldent think so. Just get the 650 ti Boost. Its about 131 euros. The 660 is about 15 better than it. So, its an awesome card for the price.

Imposable to definativly say....and drivers do always seem to be a issue on launch.

Personally Id go 7850.....for the extra that 15-20 euros you get better cooler and heatsink for overclocking (if only based on footprint) and if your getting a 7850, you should be overclocking! you also get solid drivers. 

I also wouldnt got Nvida with your budget, unless your really going to using the cuda cores with workstation programs.

I would hands down go with the 7790 over the 650 ti Boost. Check out the benchmarks, http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Radeon-HD-7790-vs-GeForce-GTX-650-Ti-BOOST-Video-Card-Review/1754/1

7790 beats the 650 ti Boost in all the game bench's except for AvP.

7790 is for sure the better deal, unless you need CUDA for Adobe.
