EVGA GeForce GTX670 FTW 2048MB GDDR5 256bit, Dual Dual-Link DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, 4-Way SLI Ready Graphics Card Graphics Cards 02G-P4-2678-KR (Personal Computers) Just ordered my second GTX 670 FTW for my new multi monitor setup after already owning one for about 7 months and this has decimated every game ive thrown at it with max settings... For gaming at 1080p, this is the best card for the money... Anything beyond 1080p the Radeon HD7970 performs slightly better.

GIGABYTE GV-N670OC-2GD GeForce GTX 670 Windforce OC 2048MB GDDR5 256-bit PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Graphics Card (Personal Computers) I bought this video card run in my Ivy Bridge custom built Hackintosh. I'me extremely happy of how simply it was to install, just plug and play. I installed this in a Hackintosh using Mac OS X 10.8.2 with very little hic-ups along the way. Using the Nvidia GTX 670 video card all my games are now smooth as butter. Currently getting 100 to 180 FPS in warcraft with high settings. Highly recommend this video card for any PC/Hackintosh build.

ASUS GeForce GTX 670-DC2T-2GD5 VGA - 1137 MHz Boost Clock - 2GB GDDR5 - GPU Tweak - PCIE 3.0 Graphics Card Graphics Cards GTX670-DC2T-2GD5 (Personal Computers) Pros: With all the negative reviews I've seen I still wanted to chance it since I have been waiting for this card since it was announced. Mine came with a boost of 1293 out of the box that I discovered when benchmarking. Well I fired up the Heaven benchmark and it crashed right away! I obtained the latest version of Precision X and put the power target all the way up (117% for my card). That not only took care of the crashing at boost level 1293, but I decided to try for higher. I was able to add +29 to my base clock of 1059 so I now had 1088 of base clock and a boost of 1323! I was able to clock my memory +600 without a problem under Heaven benchmark, but 3DMark 11 gave artifacts at that speed. The final stable artifact free speed is +510 for a final speed of 7028 (1757 X 4)! Yes, I am happy! Remember to adjust your target power all the way up. It only uses the additional power when it needs it (3D gaming and benchmarks).

I can't tell how this compares with previous Nvidia GTX generations because the last consumer graphics card I owned was a 9800GX2. At it's time that was one of its best but still couldn't handle Crysis at maximum settings.
This on the other hand cuts through Crysis and Crysis 2 like butter at 1920x1200 with everything set to maximum. The card is quiet and looks very cool inside my black on the inside PC case.
I don't see any reason to buy a second for SLI because this can handle anything. Diablo 3 also runs without hick-ups in case you were wondering.

I'm finally pleased and overjoyed to own a card like this that can handle everything I trow at it, maximum settings without the noise and heat of older generation cards.

And of course you can't go wrong with EVGA. The package contents and presentation is top notch and so is the build quality of the card.

I really love this card!
