Which gtx 670 to choose?
-
Of the ones you put, I would go for the Zotac, the others are short PCB, surely the Zotac is cooler and quieter, besides it will perform a bit more since it is the AMP that comes with OC from the factory.
I see much more quality in the Zotac, the others seem like the short models and I think they are pretty bad although in the end they will perform what a 670, but the quality of components and heatsink seems much better in the Zotac.

Thanks. And quality price do you think it's a good buy the 670? I should buy it soon to not keep using the integrated one.

Thanks. And do you think the 670 is a good value for money? I should buy it soon to not keep using the integrated one.
Well, 266€ I don't think it's bad, the 760 costs a little less but it's worse and it performs less, most 670s are over 300€, so in terms of price it's not bad, although in a few weeks it's possible to see other better offers.
But if you're in a hurry, I definitely think it's a good card in that price range, the others, even if they are cheaper, seem like a worse option to me.
What kind of equipment do you have?
Best regards

Man, 266€ I don't think it's bad, the 760 costs a little less but it's worse and has less performance, most 670s are over 300€, that's why in price it's not bad although in a few weeks it's possible to see other better offers.
But if you're in a hurry I certainly think it's a good card in that price range, the others although cheaper seem like a worse option to me.
What equipment do you have?

Thanks. The one I liked was the 7950 vapor x although it would come out to 240 or 250, so almost the same as the 670.
This is my equipment currently:
Tower: Antec three hundre two + scythe gt 800rpm
Power supply: Antec hcg 520W
Motherboard: gigabyte g31m-s2l
Processor: Quad core q8200 + hyper 212 evo heatsink
Ram: 4 gb Kingston ddr2 800
Hard drives: ssd samsung 840 evo 120 gb + seagate barracuda 7200.11 1 TbFrom now until the end of the year I want to replace my micro and motherboard and put an fx 8320 and 8 gm of ddr3 ram at 1866. What scares me the most is that I might be a bit tight on power although the antec can handle whatever you throw at it.jeje

So get a 3570 that consumes less :ugly
-
Pues pilla un 3570 que traga menos :ugly:
Pues igual tengo que hacer eso. El miedo que me da es que en juegos futuros pienso que rendirá más el fx al ser de 8 núcleos. Tu también me ves justo de potencia? Otra opción sería pillar el fx y otra fuente aunque estoy encantado con la Antec que tengo.
PD: Entonces ves mejor compra la zotac 670 amp que una 7950 vapor x? La pediría hoy seguramente. Muchas gracias por la ayuda.

i5 150/250 series and with OC, FX 200/350, approx loads. The GTX will not reach 200, although you will not encounter peak consumption in micro etc and GPU, in 12V you have 480W which for a good OC with the FX will be just enough.
Editing: The FX will improve but, I think there will still be more games that perform better with an i5. As for the Zotac, I see it well. I would pair it with the 3570@4.2GHz or until the EVO can keep it at 70º. You don't need to spend a lot of money on the motherboard, between a Z77 Pro3 and a Z77-D3H over 100€ is already good.
-
I would wait a couple of months for the graphics card, as for the micro, Intel whenever you can.
I am skeptical that an FX will outperform its i5 equivalent based on "patches". -
If you have a card to keep playing games, it's a very sensible option to wait and see how the 8800s turn out, otherwise, it's up to you, I saw an offer and I went for it but my idea was to wait :ugly
Editing: The FX issue is in the programming, look at Crysis 3, an 8320 overclocked is the best micro performance/price by far. We'll see how things turn out later.

Waiting would indeed be the most sensible thing, but I don't think I can hold out with integrated graphics for that long.jeje

Last question and I stop annoying you.jeje. I've seen the 7950 boost for 225 (although without games since I wouldn't buy it at pcc). Is it worth paying 40 euros more for the 670 amp from zotac? If I'm going to spend those amounts, I wouldn't mind paying the difference if it's worth it and there's a big difference in performance. -
Sapphire has had a not very fine time with the 7800 but well, they usually have a good price and none of my previous 4 cards have been bad for me. I was telling you a few messages back about Vapor-X/Gigabyte because they have better cooling and the chip is lovable
In summary, similar performance/price, depending on the game, one or the other performs better.

Thanks. I saw that the gtx 670 consumed about 170W, the thing is that looking at this page an analysis of the gtx 670 amp says that it consumes more than double:
HardWare Analysis: Content / Graphics cards / Graphics card ZOTAC GeForce GTX 670 AMP! EditionAre those data true? According to what it says with maximum load it almost consumes the same power that my power supply gives me. Is that possible?
-
It will be for the whole team, the consumptions I gave you are for micro team and for GPU alone. PD: I haven't looked at the link :ugly: -

In your system both cards will be limited, for me right now in gaming systems there is an important difference in favor of Intel, I refer to new architectures like 1155 or 1150, AMD although they have more cores in the end it works like a kind of HT, but the problem I see is not if the CPU is the architecture, AMD would need a new socket and modernize the bus, also put the CPU the Pcie3, sata and USB controllers as Intel does, because Intel already has a few socket changes and has gone from FSB to QPI and to DMI also that does not give retrocompatibility more than for one generation, that is in 1155 it brings out series 2xx0 and 3xx0 and in 1150 it brings out series 4xx0 and maybe 5xx0, so it advances more
Giving a lot of retrocompatibility ends up hindering the architectures and the proof is the 775 you have, the sockets that came out after are clearly better, I refer to the use of graphics cards, also of SLI or CF, I don't know how that new API they announce will influence but I don't think there will be miracles.
Then the zotac AMP is possible even to consume less than the reference models, because the temperature influences the consumption, on the web they usually give consumption of the whole equipment, it's not just the graphics.

Obione, how much did you get the gtx 760 for if you can let me know. Because if it usually costs around 250 and you got it with a good deal it could be a very interesting option.jeje

Obione, a cuanto te salio la gtx 760 si se puede saber. Porque si suele costar unos 250 y la cogiste con una buena oferta podria ser una opcion muy interesante.jeje
Para tu equipo y tu fuente yo meteria algo como esta tarjeta, te sale mas barata y aunque la 760 o 670 rinden mas es mucha la diferencia de precio, la vas a aprovechar mejor y cuando esa se quede corta se quedaran pronto cortas igual la otras.

También creo que AMD anuncio ya una bajada de precios y es muy fácil que Nvidia haga lo mismo.

Si no va a tardar en saltar de plataforma no pasa nada porque que vaya descompensado ahora y la fuente le llega para una 760 y un 3570@4,2.
En cuanto a las bajadas lo dicho, si se puede esperar, mejor que mejor.
Editing: Jose me salío por 200€ de 2ª con 3 meses.

He comprado la zotac pero como no las reciben hasta el dia 4 igual al cancelo que tengo de plazo hasta el dia 3. Visto que los dos me recomendais esperar aguantaré con la integrada y tiraré de ps3 de momento.jeje.
La R9 270X parece que se venderá por 200 euros y será superior a una 7950. Según lo que he leído de aquí a unos días se esperan bajadas de precios en los modelos actuales:

Al final cancelé la zotac gtx 670 y compré la 7950 boost porque la vi por 199 con tres juegos y me pareció muy buena oportunidad. De todas formas ahora que ya han salido las nuevas r9 de amd tengo seguro que os debería de haber hecho caso y no tendríia que haber sido tan impaciente.
La nueva r9 280x por solo 50 euros más habría sido muy buena oportunidad al ser según comentan muy superior a mi 7950 :llorar::llorar::llorar:… la única pega es que consume 250W e igual me habría ido algo justa para los 520W de fuente que tengo. -

Es una 7970 GHz, lo único que cambia el boots y se pone a mas frecuencia, nada que no se consiga con OC en una 7950 y 7970, incluso creo que la serie 7000 permite mas voltaje, se podrá subir un poco mejor.Es verdad que la 280X ha salido muy barata pero sin juegos, los juegos que daban con la serie 7000 también tienen valor, son juegos caros, además me apuesto algo a que la 280 va a ser una 7950 remarcada, con distinto boost, parece que las únicas nuevas van a ser 290 y 290X, por lo tanto si ahora bajan las 7970ghz y 7950 serán muy buena opción, sobretodo si cuestan menos que la 280 y 280x.
Lo de baratas lo digo si se compara con 7970ghz pero ahora ocuparan el rango que ocuparon las 7870, es un rango mas económico.
