woah! that looks good and cheaper... would you prefer GTX 670 instead of 7950? as your experience..
the GTX 670 would give special support to the Borderland2, im pretty confuse right now..
should I go for 7950 or i should switch it into GTX670???????????PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Cheaper RAM, bigger/cheaper HDD, more powerful GPU. Your choice as to whether it's worth going $20 over budget.

the 670 is better...the question for you is: Is it really $60 better?

 

[hkhk133]
