GTX 670 Versus GTX 680???

[MattyB]

I am just looking around at some new cards and I am deciding between the GTX 670 and 680. I seem to be finding many reports that say there is almost no noticible difference in performance between the two. I was hoping someone could sway me in one direction so I can just 'Add to Cart' and get it over with!

Also, I was going to get an EVGA card but there are Palit versions which are a fair bit cheaper with very similar clock speeds. (GTX680 - EVGA $669/Palit $539, GTX670 - EVGA $529/Palit $439). Would the Palit cards be as good? I believe their warranty is less than EVGA but after 2 years I would probably upgrade anyway.

Any ideas guys?
Cheers.

Thanks for that WaLkAwaY! That last link was great.

I did end up going for a 670 so I'm reasonably happy with my purchase now. For what I need the 670 is easily enough. I went for the Palit version purely on price. The only problem I could maybe see is the size of the thing. Hopefully I will be able to fit 2 of them in my ALX case one day.
