Hey guys,
Currently I'm using a HD6570 and I'm looking to upgrade because it's not that amazing for hash cracking. I'm looking at the 7970 and wondering if it's the best value for the $$ I am going to spend. My budget is around $650 USD, and I'm wondering if there would be a better card or even a better combination of cards that would be cheaper and have a higher hashes/sec rate then the single 7970.
Another thing would be where I would buy the graphics card from. Most prices where I live (NZ) are far more expensive than the US (even with exchange rates + shipping added). Newegg is kinda out of the question as they do not ship internationally. This is not a major issue as I can still get the cards in NZ but at a higher cost.
This graphics card would just be used for hash cracking as I do not play any games that were made later than 2004
. I do not plan to play extremely high graphics games. I'll also be upgrading other aspects of my computer as well as the graphics card.
Any input would be great
