I was looking at upgrading my graphics card to either 2 660 Ti's or 970 and I don't know which one to get, I looked all over on Google to find a couple Sli 660 ti benchmarks and compare them to the 970 but I just cant seem to find good information on which one to get, I already have a Evga Superclocked and I found a used one on Amazon for 200$. So should I just go with the 970 or Sli 660 Ti's.

Thanks :D

Simple. 970. Newer tech. Less heat. More power.

970 hands down. Less power consumption, less heat output, more raw horsepower.

I've previously owned 660 ti sli, about a month ago. They served me well, but I upgraded to two 970s. A single 970 is faster, newer, upgradable with sli in the future, cooler, and no has no sli issues.
