Almost undoubtedly neither.
Both have been discontinued and face-lifted in the GTX700-series range.
Unless there is a good deal on them, the 700-series versions (effectively the GTX770 and GTX760, though there's a few differences) have much better availability and pricing.
As for your question, it doesn't really have an answer as it's dependant on too many things. Depending on the settings you use, you are likely to see perhaps an 5-10fps difference.

$230 for a GTX670 isn't bad by any means (they are usually still retailing at $270+, if you can find them).
One word of warning would be that for effectively the same price you can get a GTX760, which is a little slower, but will come with a games bundle, and give you your choice of brand+cooler.
With the 670, I doubt you have that luxury.
EDIT - would appear GTX670s are included in Nvidias current games bundle, didn't know that. My other points remain.

I really don't care for free games. I have tons of games and I dont like splinter cell and I can get Assassins creed later ( Not a huge fan). Is the 670 faster? and how much a difference from a 680?

Which GTX670 is it, out of curiosity?
When the GTX670 and GTX680 were the mainstay of Nvidias high end, conventional wisdom was that you bought a quality GTX670 as it wasn't a million miles away from the performance of a GTX680 and dramatically cheaper. Now, neither is widely available so you are shopping from stock clearout, prices don't really compare in the same way.
In most games, the difference is likely to be a few frames per second, it's pretty small.
In reference to the current Nvidia models, a GTX770 is a slightly improved GTX680, and the GTX760 falls somewhere between the GTX660Ti and GTX670. All five are variants on the same GK104 chip, but in most games the top to bottom (GTX770 to GTX660ti) is probably only covered by 15fps or so - again this is hugely dependant on what you are playing and the settings you are running.
