GTX 670 reviews are up.

Hooray for decent Aussie prices for once, I was freaking out expecting like 550-600, ebaying my 5970 and picking up one of these puppies :) and a second further down the track.

Wow, ASUS GTX 670 DC II TOP is insane, not only is Amd in trouble, even gtx680 will have a hard time :o

Do want

Gahhh! Ive been waiting for Amazon to accept my college textbooks for trade in so I could buy an EVGA card. Now they are sold out. They will probably accept the trade in this afternoon. One day too late.

Why is everyone flipping out like its the messiah of computer hardware? Unless I am missing something, all I see is a card that costs the same as a 7970 and has either slightly better or slightly worse performance. At anything past $400 I really don't see anything to be excited about....unless you just wanted to go with NVIDIA instead of amd..

I will upgrade to a GTX 670 later this year...the 4GB is what iam looking for...but i will be pleased with the 2GB aswell...

You aren't going to be able to realistically find 670s for $399 after the initial run dries up. They'll be price jacked just like the 680 and will cost the same as a 7970 for a majority of the people that buy one. Only a small portion of people who get one in the first month will pay msrp.

For the record, I'm getting one only because I haven't already got something else and because the last ATI card I had that didn't fail prematurely was a 9800xt like 8 years ago.

Looks like a great card. I wish I could justify spending the money, but everything is running very smoothly right now. I'll probably wait for the next gen.

Any idea how much wattage one would need to run two of them. Two 460's just don't cut it in many games if i want to use surround

What would you reccomond something 800 plus . I would love to not upgrade from my 650 but i doubt that would work

Was able to pick up http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125423 before it went out of stock. Seemed like the best deal to me. This will be my first Nvidia card since my old 9800 gt crapped out back in the day. Just too good of a deal to pass up really, AMD has nothing that can compete with it at that price. It'll be intersting to see how AMD responds.

I guess I won't be going for that GTX 690 then. Thinking of buying two GTX 670 4GB versions next week. Saves me some money as well :)ShadowDeathX

Can't wait to see Australian pricing in the morning. A little worried though, I hope it's no more than $550.C_Rule

I bought the Gigabyte GTX670 3X OC yesterday for $399 shipped. I should be able to bench both cards on Monday. My 680 OC's extremely well, so it will be interesting to see. I also plan to bench them clock for clock. Also if a yone is interested in my 680: http://www.ebay.com/itm/GIGABYTE-GeForce-GTX-680-2GB-/270973324140?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item3f1744cb6c#ht_500wt_898DevilMightCry

Can anyone tell me how big the performance increase would be of this over a gtx 560 ti?

Do you happen to have a link to where you read that?

Slightly less than double performance (depending on the game of course).

Thanks pretty good, curious to see how they do on high

Just common sense. Reference GTX670 is built pretty cheaply. Some of the custom AIB PCBs are either using GTX680 PCBs which use better components and stronger/more power phases or their own design, which will be better than the reference GTX670 PCB.

Edit- Reference GTX670 = 4+2phases
ASUS GTX670 DirectCUII TOP = 6+2phases
Gigabyte GTX670 OC = 5+2phases
