I am planning on making a gaming build and I have chosen the majority of the parts of the build, but I have yet to decide on a gpu. I have narrow it down pretty much to two.
MSI GTX 670 PE http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127685&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NA
or the
Sapphire 7970 OC http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102982&name=Desktop-Graphics-Cards
I am not limited to these two so make any other suggestions. Thank you for any help.
Sorry here is the rest of my build

Without telling us the rest of the build, budget and what games, number of monitors, resolution and quality you will be using it is hard to recommend a card.

Personally, I would get the 7970 especially for surround gaming but would lean to the 670 for single monitor usage since it is quieter and cooler.
