6990m OC(720p) vs gtx 680m OC(1080p)

I own a 6990m
I own a fast TV that scales well, I dont see the differances between 720p and 1080p at 6 feet back.

I was thinking of buying a 680m

Do you think the 680M will still be faster?

I score 19999 vantage gpu at 720p

what does the 680m OC hit on vantage at 1080p?


what do you guys think I should do, buy a 680m and sit closer or sticck with the 6990m and sit back a bit?

edit.

I was fiddling around looking for the cpu bottleneck and its at 1600x900 then it becomes the bottleneck. I score 14600 vs 15200 at 1600x900 vs 1080p.

makes me feel good knowing I just added 5000 points worth of performance at 0 visual quality loss... I guess I need a fast cpu or wait on the next gen

 

i would stay with 6990m, 680 is too expensive to justify

 

To me it sounds like you got a pre Enduro notebook so why dont try aiming at a HD 7970m to replace the 6990m instead?
I would have done the same on my P170HM but in the end the 680m was cheaper to get into Norway.

 

You should be fine with the 6990M at 1080p anyway it is still a very good card, I was sad to see mine go and could run it upto 850/1100 and it flew.

The 680M is a very very good card but you would be much better off waiting to next year for the next series because that will be a very big jump from the 6990M.

 

yiddo good point.

I was messing with crysis and I can max the game with 8x AA and get a min of 25 high of 55 and average 35fps so its all good as they say.

witcher 2 run ultra without aa at about 30-60 fps and sleeping dogs runs at like 95fps with nice settings. Iguess im not thinking clearly. I lowered the resolution to match the performance of a 680m i crysis and only got like 10 fps more. not enough for a 900 dollar upgrade. I think ill stick with this card till im hitting low/medium.. basically 3 years...2years left
