Hi all,

 

I was wondering what card is the best for the RC 5 project? The 7970 or the
R 9 2700 X toxic specs are as follows:

 

7970

 

1000/1050(Boost) MHz Core Clock

28 nm Chip

2048 x Stream Processors

Price $464.95

 

 

R9 2700 X

 

1100/Boost:1150 MHz Core Clock
28 nm Chip
1280 x Stream Processors

Price $353.35

 

Both prices are in in NZD  after the end of Saturday US time you will need
to add 7% to these prices

 

I am aware of the speed that the 7970 can do. The question I am asking is
the Toxic card any faster for this project? I do not plan on using either
card for gaming

 

Thanks for any assistance

 

 

 

Cheers

Jarod
