670 vs 680

[Impignorate]

I was wondering what the difference in performance between an Asus GTX670-DC2T-2GD5 clocked at 1.06GHz and an Asus GTX680-DC2O-2GD5 clocked at 1.02GHZ would be?

Even though the clock is quicker on the 670, the 680 is better.

If you are not familiar with nVidias GTX series graphics cards, this is how it goes.

Outdated---------------------------------450

Outdated---------------------550------~460

Outdated-------------------550Ti---~465

Entry level --- 650 ------~560------~470

Entry level --- 650Ti ---~560Ti----~480

Mainstream - 660 ------~570

Mainstream - 660Ti ----~580

High end ----- 670 ------~~590

High end ----- 680

High end ----- 690

The 670 is not a card I recommend. Either the 680, or the 660Ti. The performance between a 670 and a 680 isn't huge, but it's there. You can watch some benchmarks on the internet. Here are some links for you. :)

If you choose the 660Ti, you can always buy another one if you are not statisfyed, and your hardware is compatible.

Glad to help, if I helped. :)
