Hey Guys, I don't want to start a war of "fanbois", but I'm looking at buying a new graphics card mostly for BF3, and have up to ~£190 to spend, preferably the less the better (budget conscious student and all...)
I would just go for the 2GB 6950 over the 1GB 560 Ti as I believe it just edges the latter out in most games(?) and of course may have the unlockable shaders(?) But at the same time I'm really looking forward to Arkham City too so PhysX from the nVidia card would be nice!
Having shopped around the cheapest 560 Ti I can find is this:

Otherwise pre-overclocked:
http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials...R5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+?productId=44469
In terms of 6950s I'd definitely want a 2GB for that little bit extra future-proofing(?) and found this:
http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials...R5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+?productId=43820
That 6950 is probably the highest I can go in terms of price.
So without wanting start a flame war between fanbois, what do you guys think the best option is for the games that I want to play? Thanks in advance
