I was an Nvidia fan for years, but three years ago I built a system and threw in an XFX-5850. I have been happy with it, but now another new system is sitting in my house that needs a new video card (because I sold my old system).
What scares me is all the posts I am reading about the issues with the GTX 670's, which is primarily what I was looking to buy. I've had good luck in the past with EVGA but it seems the quality isn't what it used to be. I am seriously thinking about the Asus GTX670-DC2 right now but wanted to hear a few opinions.
I mostly play BF3 and Microsoft Flight Simulator X. FSX benefits more from Nvidia drivers and I can use Nvidia Inspector which is why I am leaning towards this. The GTX 680 is too expensive and I worry that I wont be able to crank BF3 up to Ultra @ 1900x1080 if I go with the 660ti.
I have a i7 3770k on an Asus P8Z77-V with 8 GB of Corsair DDR3-1600 and a Corsair HX-650 PSU. No plans to SLI...just looking for a solid single GPU solution. Any advice greatly appreciated!
