i am looking at upgrading my GPU from AMD 7000 series and looking for something that will play EVE on 2 screens on full graphics and looking at spending between £350 - £450 mark ($550 - $700)

was looking at Nivida EVGA 680 (prob signature 2) or SLI on 2 GTX660's (which is about same price give or take a little) or do you guys have better Idea as also thought on the AMD

Single cards always works better and have less problems and it seems CCP is in bed with nvidia.


AMD and nvidia both make good cards so its really your call on what you want. Although AMD cards have more compute power if thats something you need.


I prefer Asus nvidia cars myself. Almost solely on the fact that they are super quiet.

Well part from web surfing and Playing Eve, it don't do much more Big smile so looks like for ease of compatibility Nvidia prob better way to go.

Dose EVE work better on Nvidia to a notable difference, or save a few Quid and Go AMD?

Lets just say I'v had never had a issue with my nvidia card and EvE, just don't use beta drivers and your fine.

I have not messed with a AMD card in depth lately so I wont say anything about them.

got a single GTX 660 OC myself, using beta drivers. no problems yet, and i've had it since last november.

In a few moments you will have an experience that will seem completely real. It will be the result of your subconscious fears transformed to your conscious awareness.
