Gtx 680 pny or gtx 670 gigabyte

[Laserbeak101]

Hi guys,

I've just ordered a Gigabyte 670 windforce card for £323 but spotted pc world are selling a gtx 680 pny card for £346 is it worth the extra for the next card (even if it is reference cooler etc?)

Thanks for the advice
Bob

TPUs performance summary shows that reference GTX 680 is only 2% faster than gigabyte gtx 670:

£23 more is 7% more expensive. I'd stick with 670.
You can try to overclock it even more and achieve ref. GTX680 performance, and this windforce cooler is great.

Ok read some of the related forums below and think I'll stick with the 670

The 670 WindForce you got is an excellent card. You won't need anything else honestly! Have fun!

Thank you need to stop second guessing my build and I didn't really have a spare £30!
