Guys,

Just opened this post to thank you guys in finally helping me making a decision. I can see due to the fight my previous post

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/graphic-cards/143795-hd6950-vs-560ti-5.html got Closed :-D

I have ordered below products from SMC

N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II/OC
MSI N560GTX-TI Twin Frozer II/OC

Corsair 650TX ...Couldnt get GS600 as it was not available on SMC, techshop or itdepot
Corsair Power 650TX

Have already made the payment. Should get it within 48 hours :)...I hope this lasts longer than the sapphire 4870 which died on me after 3.5 years :-(

Again thanks to all you guys who helped in deciding on the card :)

@ jetboy

Excellent purchase jetboy. No regrets on the psu cause tx 650 is better than gs600. Its much more efficient and is 80+ bronze certified.
But i guess you should have gone for the v2 version.

Do post pics when you get them.:smile:

@jetboy, nice dude, and don't worry about the PSU, the V2 is better but that does not mean V1 is a slouch, its really good and had been around for years, for now enjoy your sweet rig.

I tried to search for GS600, but dint find it on the websites listed..I then read some more about 650TX and found it to be fine. It was also exceeding my budget..so without looking any further I just ordered that :)..I will surely post the pics

Congrats jetboy. TX650 is much better than GS600, so that's a boon in disguise. ;)

I dont think there will be a problem though as usually they pack them real good.

jetboy, really great purchase. The combination of TX650 and 560 Ti Hawk is superb. Don't forget to post pics when you get those items.

This article proves msi 560-ti hawk as highly recommended for its terrific performance and efficiency. It consumes less power than 6950 in full load.

6870 twin frozr II is a surprise winner. Msi is really doing a good job designing custom coolers and pcb's. The 560-ti hawk's pcb isn't reference as proved by its much lower load power consumption.

Thanks mukherjee:smile:

MSI GTX 560 Ti HAWK consuming less power than HD 6950 is a misreading on their part perhaps. It does offer tremendous value in India though.

anyways, OP has ordered his card. Locking the thread. :)
