not much, some are a little more overclocked, some have differen cooling.
just look at a good brand, with a good warrenty.
look for the looks, and look at the specs, the heat, power and the overclock.
my expirince is msi power edition, when you start the pc, the fans spin for a few secconds backworse so dust comes out, if there is any dust in.
it stays cool and quit.
but what is the price in youre countrey for a card like a 660ti

I would get a 7950/7870 instead simply because it has higher memory interface of 256 bit vs the 660ti's 192 bits which is just pathetic considering how much this card costs and how much performance it offers.

indeed and if you whant an nvidia, and you can spent the extra money, go for a 760.
Before we go any further, what power supply are you running?
Okay, as long as you know you need a better PSU you'll be fine then. Just be sure to check the amps on the +12v rail so it can power the card :good:

I would also measure from the back of the case to the HDD cages and see how much room you have in there. Also, buy some canned air and dust it out more regularly.

I was going to mention the dust but did not want to offend.
What are the specs of the rest of your system is it on the same kind of level as the card you are going to add ?
Looks like an older Gateway to me.
These are the data I have:
brand: Acer
model: Predator G3600
classification: 5,9
processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3,40GHz 3,40 GHz
RAM: 8,00 GB
system: 64-bit operating system
Windows 7 Home Premium
Power supply: 500watt
I've never cleaned my pc
good that you mention it

Well that spec is more than capable of matching the card
I think it is the motherboard that looks older than it is.

They are just 2 different brands differences are between models of cards not the brands.
If you want to compare cards against one another try these 2 sites.

nVidia is a bit more expensive but has that little bit of edge over AMD (and nVidia also has PhysX).

I would kindly suggest posting which PSU you are considering prior to purcahse as there are many 700W psus around that are not worth two pinches of dog doo.
