Nvidia 560ti vs ATI 6950

[chazdraves]

Well, except for the issue mentioned in my thread, I've had a 560 Ti for 2 weeks now and been very impressed with performance. I realize I can't speak for the 6950 from experience, but the 560 Ti (MSI TWIN FROZR) runs SCII at 1920x1080 with dual monitors on the highest settings (Extreme? Ultra?) without a hitch in 1v1v1 so far.

Merely my $.02

Also the 560 is the coolest running card around, even with ref cooler. Furmark cant take it above 68c.

Furmark cant take it above 68c.

Doesn't Nvidia cripple the GPUs badly when furmark is detected as running?
