I just saw that the gtx 760 and the 660 are 20% off this month and they bring a free copy of watch dogs, here's the problem,i almost have the money for a 760 but need a new power supply..... But for half the price of the 760, i can get a 660 ti and still have some money left for a Psu,which later on i was thinking of getting my friend's 660 because he wants to sell it and running them in sli..... But from what i saw the 760 is a redesigned 670 but with a new name(number). This is where the benchmarks come in, i saw that a 660 ti draw less power and the diferrence between two is about 5-10 frames and it has fewer cuda core,but knowing how the 760 is new i know you are gonna say go with it instead of a 660 ti but i kinda dont have the money for the 760 and a psu at the time but yes for the 660 ti, and i was wondering i can sli a 660 with a 660 ti ( i dont know but something tells no because of the 660 ti being a gk104 and a 660 being a gk106 right?)

what PSU do you have for now ?

PS : can't SLI 660 with 660Ti, not the same GPU

You can't SLI a GTX 660 and a 660 ti becuase they are different GPUs.

If you can't afford the 760, just go for a 660, its still a fairly good card, but it might struggle with WatchDogs.

Also how many watts is your current PSU, chances are that it might be able to power a 760, its not exactly a power hungry card.

you could get the 660 and 660ti and run them as independent card for instance 660ti gaming 660 for folding or mining

Hope this helps
