GTX 660 Ti arrival!

660 Ti performs quite close to the 670/7950. The price is quite good compared to the performance.
Just sad that the Asus DirectCU II doesn't have back-plate.
 
Seems like NVIDIA have definitely taken the "obvious budget card of choice" back from AMD. Before I was recommending people buy the 7850 or the 7870 if they wanted a GPU for £180-£280, but now I think I'm going to recommend people get the 660 Ti - especially once the prices have come down!

Yeah now, it's more expensive in belgium then the hd7870, but on newegg it's cheaper !
 
The HD 7870 is slightly cheaper here than the 660 Ti - about £20-30 cheaper or so. The 7850s are about £60-80 cheaper than the 660 Ti.
 
Nvidia always seems to nail the mid-range segment with the GTX x60 cards. The 460 was an immensely popular Fermi card, and it looks like that might continue with the 660 for Kepler.

I'm not sure about owning it;

This is a 7950 vs 660Ti

The 7950 is around $300-350 with 3gb here in the U.S.
The 660Ti is $300 with 2gb in the U.S.

So there around the same price and you can O.C. both of them. If your running a multi monitor set up or a very big screen wouldn't the 7950 be better for the same price?

I'm no expert, but I'm questioning because I was set on a 670 for $400 and now if I can get this card for $300 and run my games maxed I'd rather do this.

The good old 560 Ti was also a very popular card, I used one for a build I did for somebody once. :)

yeah, the hd7950 wins in overall. But if you play on 1920x1080 you can better get the gtx660ti.

Maybe its just me....but isnt the 660ti and the 670 the same card?

Yeah it is the same, but with lower Memory Bus width, that is why people are looking forward to it.

The best thing about the 7k series is it crossfirexs like a boss and beats a competing 600 series SLI.
