since the 7970's and the 680's are almost outdated cause the 700 series are coming out, do you think i should just get a 660ti? just to save that extra.? http://ncix.com/products/?sku=888810...nufacture=EVGA

Also which one would be better? the 660ti Sc or the 7870?!

I will vote 7970 because you will get more frames on most games with the new drivers. And it costs less too! The only sectors where the 680 triumphs is 3D and Physx. However most new games don't use Physx and modern gpus alone can handle the physics work even AMD cards. And also I believe that people should use 2560x1440(1600) and not 120hz putrid tn panel screens. But that's a forum topic for a different thread :)

7970 performs better and over all is better unless compared to a 690 if you really want something amazing go with the 7970 but if you want some 3d stuff go with 680

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.
