Hello,
I am building a new HTPC that will also be a gaming system. Will be on a 1080p plasma, power is not an issue, and while budget is not a major issue I was looking to save a bit of money (currently system is pricing out ~$1,600 w/670). I have done some research and believe I understand the compromises I would be making with the 480 (more power consumption, runs hotter, louder, & less performance). 48 hour sale on the 480 so appreciate the prompt response!
My Question: Would you go with the 480 @ $200 OR 670 @ $400 ?
