For their performance it is a good deal.

better check your power supply to see if can run that card. 500 watt minimum for one card. I know 750ti doesn't need that much.

it is a good deal if you have the wattage to run it
what psu do you have?

670 sli power requirements are said to be 750w

The price is actually about $120 cad for me.

one card needs a 500w tier 1 or 2 power supply

two cards in sli is 750w tier 1 or 2 power supply

it may be a good deal but you will need a new power supply

I will definitely be getting a new psu but do you think getting a used card of this caliber for $120 cad to be worth it? will i see a good increase or is the card to old and may be at the end of it's life? Heres a pic:

if you are coming from a 750ti its 3 tiers up on the hierarchy chart and is a definite upgrade for you and if you put them in sli(buying two of them) YES its pretty powerful at that price.... what is your CPU??? check out his link called the GPU Heirarchy chart

g3258 overclocked to 4.2ghz and atm I think i'm just going to get one

ok. that would be a nice upgrade form that processor. I don't think going SLI would be that great for that CPU. it will bottleneck in cpu intensive games with 2 670's in sli . but one is a good upgrade...

Thank you very much I greatly appreciate your help and the information you referenced me to

Agreed a single GTX670 is fine for that CPU.
