    670 is a monster

    This thing is smoking fast. The slightly overclocked EVGA SC matches the 680 in performance and smokes a stock 680 when OCed. They got a 1200+mhz OC out of it. This card instantly made the 7970 and 7950 irrelevant. The only games that AMD cards are any good at are Crysis and Metro, but the nvidia cards aren't far behind in those. In SCII, Battlefield 3, Dirt, Batman, and Skyrim Nvidia takes it.

    Really, there is no need to buy a 680 with these on the loose. A slight OC matches a 680 and the OC is devastating. If I was to buy today, it would be a 670 no doubt.

    First time techpowerup has given a card a perfect score: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/A...t_Cu_II/3.html
