Solution
The 680 will only be ~5% faster than a 670, but it costs 25% more. It's not worth it.

That is your monitor setup and resolution? At just 1080p, a SINGLE 670 will max basically any game out there. My vote is buy one, and then buy another only if you aren't happy with the performance.

What are the 2 games you cant max out ???
 


Crysis 3 and Far Cry 3 - but I can't even tell a difference between maxxed settings and the ultra preset, so no worries there.
