What resolution are u playing on? My single 6870 ran great in all my games in 1920x1080. I have 2 now, but to be honest, one worked fine at 1080p.godzillavskong

I'm only going to be playing on 1080p. I'm not really keen on the multiple monitor idea :) But if the GTX670 borders on being a mutiple monitor card, that means single monitor gameplay will also be super fast right?

I agree, a single 6870 runs games fine. Although it does show its age in certain games like BF3 on ultra and Future Soldier on medium. Even Skyrim had a bit of a frame rate drop at certain points in the game. Witcher 2 is another good example.....

I`m in South Africa and I still think the 7950 is overpriced here as according to most reviews this card is slower than the 670, yet they're the same price. Also, I`m not comfortable with OCing :) And I want PhysX :P I am now back to considering the 660 again lol. Thinking of getting an SSD with the money I save. I`m leaning more towards the 670 though. I really appreciate all the input

Thanks for all the replies. The 670 really looks more and more attractive with every review I read.

Does anyone think its worth getting a 680 perhaps? :)

Between those cards, get the 670. I think you should get a 7950 3gb instead though.

The 7950 is not only 10+ fps slower than the 670, but also more expensive here. :)

Hi

I`m in the market for a GPU upgrade (from a 6870 Hawk) and I can't seem to decide whether I should get an MSI GTX660 Power Edition or theMSI GTX670 Power Edition. In most games the difference is only about 8-10 fps, however I did see a bench or 2 where the difference is much higher. Also, the 670 has about 50GBs more bandwidth which is quite a lot and makes it seem worth while over the 660. I can always get the 660 and spend the money I save on an SSD, but I know I`m going to regret not getting the 670 later on. So back to my question - If theres anyone one here who has this card or a similarly spec'ed one, I would love to get some feedback on how this card performs. Also, any opinions on whether the 670 is worth the extra cash are welcome :) Thanks
