I'd go for a 670 or a 7950 actually, save a bit of money.
If you've got the money go for a 680 or 7970 though, but they're not a whole lot faster than the 670 or the 7950.
When buying and setting up a new gaming PC: What are the precautions and preparation?

In case anyone actually cares:
SSD coming in today, 120 GB Samsung 840 series.
Will be upgrading to a better GPU later on.
Good choice, I didn't know you already had a system.

I did, I was just having a ton of doubt on whether I should upgrade, or just sell and buy a new one.
I overthought it, and I do not understand why I would consider buying a whole new PC. An SSD and a 680, will do me just fine. My CPU(I7 3930K)is more than future proof.
I was thinking about getting the card named: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 680 4GB PhysX CUDA.
Do you or anyone else here recommend this card, or do you believe I can get a better card for the same price?

With an SSD and that card, it will be fast.
Please put full specs in your signature when you can so we don't have to waste time
I apologize, I will do that right now. Thank you for the tip.

I have now edited my signature, and it includes the full description of my setup.

Ill tell you all a secret i dont tell my customers that i build computers for. To ensure no static electricity what so ever. I build a majority, if not all of my computers naked. Just saying, I've never zapped a computer componet before. Is this ideal? Probably not, Is it effecient, and comfortable? Always.
