Greetings Commmunity,
First of all, I state that I am a PC enthusiast, so I do like to play on High Settings.
Now, due to that particular reason, I decided recently that an upgrade for my system is rather the best thing to do, and after some considerations, my GPU jumped forward in the list. Therefore, after some research I found that the possible best cards for the budget I specified for this, which is 300(euros\dollars) or slightly higher (30-40 euros\dollars higher), are the GTX 660ti 3GB FTW Edition from EVGA versus the RADEON HD 7950 3GB from GIGABYTE.
This is the Crossroads, you see, after researching a ton of benchmarks and tests done on both those cards, I was unfortunetly still not able to definitevly decide which fits my requirements best. This is where you come in, I hope.
Before I go ahead laying the rest of the details, I would like to point out that these cards are still negociable, they are not definetevl the only ones I am comparing, I am just looking for what fits the budget above and my computer( chassis mostly).
Now here are a few technical details of my case here:
Chassis: Zalman Z9+
CPU: I3-2100
(actual) GPU: AMD RADEON HD 6850 from Powercolor
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 (2 DIMMs)
Motherboard: ASUS P9H61-M LX
Most Used Resolution: 1920x1080
PSU: Corsair CX600 600 watts (80+)
Cooling: Air-Based
Environement Heat: 22-30 Celcius at max during Summer Days
Most Used Applications: Battlefield 3 - Assassin's Creed III - Metro 2033\Last Light - Saint's row 3 - BF Bad Company 2 - AVP - MOH - FIFA 13 - Crysis 3 - (Modern New Titles+ outdated old Titles)
Notes: -No User Overclocking is used or going to be used on the GPU unless it is extremely necessary and safe
- I am looking for single card Performance, I am not going neither Crossfire or Sli
- The other Components will probably be upgraded soon
- Please Do not post responses stating that I should upgrade other components unless they're vital to the GPU
- Please Base your responses on facts and the details stated above.
- Please do not post a vague response such as ' I don't know\ it's up to you' as I already stated what the card will mostly be used for (Battlefield 3 mostly)
- Please consider the card's dimensions and the chassis's, as I was not able to get the exact ones for comparison. therefore i relay on your high expertise.
Thanks in advance for your help.

According to Google, 350 Euros is equivalent to $454.30.
With that said, I'd buy the new GTX 770.
