Gtx 660 or radeon 7850/7870

[ninjabunnyzz]

I am generally stuck and want to know wether i should bother getting the nvidia gtx 660 because I've seen a lot of people saying its horrible compared to the new amd's so i wanted to know what the community thought on here.
In advance Thanks for replying.

it depends what games you are playing
for example nvidia has better drivers for battlefield 3
i would presonally go with 7850/7870 or even higher

I agree not horrible just priced too high. The 7850 and 7870 are both better buys.

$199 for a 7870 -

I have a gigabyte hd 7850 factory OCed..... and its awesome. I have played BF3 and Crysis on MAX settings ( only shadows were medium ) and it gave me good Fps.... so i'll recommend the 7850/7870

Wow that finally came back in stock. I've seen that and been recommending it (along with a second since I knew it was out of stock). Finally it's back Definitely the card you should buy.
