Was going to buy the 670 ..but ...I'm waiting for the 660ti this fall if it comes ...now this one will be replacing the evga 550ti 2gb I have wish runs D3 very well (over 50fps) solo with all on high except for shadows because i don't like them.
I feel I need a bit more muscle but not over 200 dlls. This seems to fit the budget and has 2gb of memory.

I'm not planning to OC so my question is is it something else for less than 200 dlls that can perform better out of the box than this card ??

The only real problem is that the Ti's are over 200 ...I just need a bump for my 550ti ...for the price of the 560ti I rather wait ..I been also eyeballing this 6950 for 180 + 20 of shipping ..but I'm not sure ..

It is an ok way to go. In games like BF3 in large maps/max AA you need more gpu ram. A 560 sli set up will max out BF3 and give you something like gtx 580.

$360 ish = gtx 580

If you have a 550ti I'd just save up till you can get a 7850 tho. For now that is the best value. The other option is to jump on a gtx 480 when they drop to 210.00. Blablablabla heat babababa older card blaabalbblab, the 480 in game is more like a gtx 570 and on par with a 7850.

sell the games that come with it for 15 bucks or so and you got a 7850 for just over 200 bucks.
