| zarx said: With the rumours of the GTX670 being close to the performance of the 580 (probably higher in games but lacking in compute like the 680) and use a lot less power and also be cheaper ($399 has been hovering arround for the 670 http://videocardz.com/32476/geforce-gtx-660-ti-and-gtx-670-specification-leaked) it should push prices down further. It will likely be a better buy than a 580, I mean a quick check on newegg shows that 580s still go for $400+ so 670 could be a much better buy. Worth waiting for a couple weeks or so anyway |
Oh so the reviews are out and the GTX 670 seems like a great performer! Not too much under the GTX 680 at stock settings and performs above the stock GTX 580 as well. The card seems like a great buy for just about anybody looking for top of the line performance without a super high price at $399, compared to $499 for the gtx 680. (Unless you can find a cheap gtx 580 of course.)

In my case going with the gtx 580 was still the best bet. In Japan, a gtx 670 will retail for well 55%-60% more than what I paid for one of my cards! yikes. (For reference, 1 gtx 680 was 90%-120% more expensive.)
