Looking for an upgrade From EVGA GTX670 FTW

rdizz81 · Jul 24, 2014

Not seeing anything out there that is a viable upgrade any suggestions?

Well...I had an EVGA GTX670 FTW Sig2 for a while....but then upgraded to a EVGA GTX780 SC w/ ACX cooler. It was a bit better. Now I bought a second EVGA 780 and sli'd them...

Do you think the upgrade is worth the $600?

Hello... here is a general performance chart http://videocardbenchmark.net/video_lookup.php?gpu=GeForce+GTX+670

From what i can tell, those benchmarks look impressive but i have seen impressive benchmarks fail in games. Looking at the specs of the 780 vs the 670 FTW the only difference i can see is the mem clock is faster. any real world experience with them?

I was looking at this. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487003&cm_re=gtx_780-_-14-487-003-_-Product

Just wondering if that price is worth it for the performance boost if any is really noticeable

Hello... maybe your Monitor is holding you back? Do you have it set to 60 hz and enabled VSYNC in your software programs?

Oh i am not having any performance issues at all. The GTX 670FTW eats games alive. I am just one of those guys who always pushes for more lol... and its been 2 years since an upgrade so i am looking for that bit of extra performance. and right now i cant see the performance jump of $600 to a 780Ti

Hello... there is a 67% performance increase... the GTX670 will sell for about $200 on EBAY right now... so the difference would be $400 for 67% more.

rdizz81 · Jul 24, 2014

Well its really not, you are looking at the standard 670 the 670 FTW is basically a 680 and in some cases can perform higher. For that matter the 670 Superclock is still a lower clock than the FTW

Word on the street is first iteration of Maxwell will hit mid August. Just pointing that out.

This is interesting. Any links to this?

Ironsounds · Jul 24, 2014

Hello... Ya ya ya... your talkin about a GPU/memory Clock tweeks...But what is hardware enabled on that GPU will be the same across the board, for any gtx670.

More like November if there are no setbacks.

I made the jump from a GTX 670 to a GTX 780 Ti and couldn't be any happier. Both were from EVGA actually. LOL

The GTX 670 is a capable GPU. No one can argue about that. But when you start cranking up the eye candy like AA and such, you'll see that it falls short. With a GTX 780 Ti, you don't even bother looking at the system requirements anymore when buying game. You know you got more than enough firepower to play it at Ultra settings. That feeling is just amazing.

rdizz81 · Jul 24, 2014

Which version did you go with?

At that time, I bought the reference EVGA GTX 780 Ti for around $700. But you're in luck because nowadays you can get the EVGA GTX 780 Ti Superclocked for $650.
