I'll have a look, then. Is the 6950 recommendation being made as a fan of superior tech, superior performance/cost ratios, or as a fan of  Radeon cards?

The 6950 1GB trades games with the 560 Ti. If the games you like favour one over the other, choose that one. If one of them is significantly cheaper than the other, get that one. I'm not that great on current pricing, but a quick look on some Canadian websites shows the 560 Ti about $20 cheaper.

I was more saying, consider both, rather than recommending the Radeon. I don't think you care about the difference features, and average performance is similar, so it does come down to cost.

Hm, thank you, I will keep this in mind. They're pretty comparable in terms of heat and noise levels. This is not an easy decision!

Now I just need to wait for some Witcher 2 benchmarks....
