Should I SLI with GTX 670's for £140 or save for the r9 390?

Hi guys

Do you think two MSI GTX 670s are worth £140?

I'm looking to upgrade from a 7850 2gb card. Was looking at the r9 390 but these 670s look like they would be more than enough for 1080p.

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks

If you want something that easy to handlexwith just go with 390. Then upgrade again when Pascal/Artic Island arrive.
