You post speculation "with a source"

I post basic economic sense.

what if the 9970 is 5% less powerful than the 780 but comes in at 500$.

What if the 9950 is more powerful than the 770 and comes in at 350$?

You don't know you speculate, poorly.

It is too soon to tell WHAT will be better, but your usual shit ideology is just "buy nvidia doesn't matter", especially when this 700 series and the 770 he is wanting to buy is a rebranded 680 and has competition in the 7970.

2 months,WAIT, to see what is the better card from say the 9950 and 770.


well at the very least
9950 will be 7970 but hopefully 4gb
n oced which will smash a 770

now I kinda feel like it wont beat a 780
the 9970 but will prob be very close 5% or so

cuz u know they gona be marketing

Here is the thing, Ghot.

I am actually giving SOUND advice, not to spend money with half the picture shown to you.

I use what ifs with actual practicality and common sense.

You use what ifs, bad ones mind you, to tell someone to buy a 400$ item.

I use what ifs to paint a picture that waiting 60 days on something that is not crucial could end up saving someone money while offering more performance.




Get your shit together.

Could be, problem is we just don't know. Like we really don't know what BF4 will require either.

Battlefield 4 system requirements

The minimum PC system requirements for Battlefield 4 are expected to be:

    Dual core CPU (Intel Core i5 or AMD “Bulldozer”).
    At least 2 GB main system memory
    Graphics card with at least 256 MB of VRAM and support for DirectX 10
    20+ GB of harddrive space
    Windows Vista

Recommended system requirements

The recommended PC system requirements for optimal visual quality and frame rates:

    Quad core CPU (Intel Core i5 or i7) at 3 Ghz
    4 GB memory (8 GB for 64-bit operating systems)
    A modern DX11 graphics card with 1 GB of video memory, GeForce 600 series or Radeon 7000 series
    Windows 7 64-bit operating system (Windows 8 is supported as well)
    20+ GB of free harddrive space

Battlefield 4 is slightly optimized for AMD hardware, since the game also runs on next gen consoles, which are powered by AMD CPUs and GPUs. This means that gamers with AMD PC graphics cards might see a slight advantage. Both Nvidia and AMD offer Battlefield 4 optimized PC drivers.




/ee Looks to me like another console port :/

Because using bf3 as a baseline is not a good idea of what bf4 will use.

:rolleyes:


NE ways, it is like trying to teach a brick wall not to be dumb, what games do you think will come with cf 9950 never settle. Will they refresh for 9000 or will i get those 6 current games of which i own 3.

The Battlefield 4 system requirements will be similar to those of BF3, since the game is built on a similar game engine. While the Frostbite 3 engine features numerous visual improvements, it also sports performance enhancements. This means that gamers with a wide range of PC hardware will be able to run the game. As any modern game, the Battlefield 4 system requirements will take advantage of powerful hardware to deliver great visuals at playable frame rates.
