Whats the best mining graphic card at a current time?
Im planning on adding a graphic card to my pc and start mining again...
I cant decide which card to choose...from my research I have done here are the ones I consider choosing from:
5850, 5870, 5770, 5830, 5970, 7970, 6770..and I have found only 6770, 7970 online that are in stock still... Sad

Please help me choose!!!

From what I've heard, it seems like you can't just start mining with one computer. You literally have to have a decently-sized cluster of them in order to do any significant mining.

I think that at this point is better to wait for some ASIC product to hit the market. Investing into graphic boards or FPGA is a risk.

This is INCORRECT. Nvidia card performance is a third to a quarter of ATI's.

Look on Ebay for a Radeon HD 5970. People are dumping them right now because ASICs are hitting the market as we speak.
