Hi there, first post from me
I'm getting a new video card and I'm having trouble deciding
I'm looking at
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4805060&csid=_61
or
http://www.amazon.com/MSI-R7850-Twin-Frozr-2GD5/dp/B009LZ1JYQ/ref=sr_1_45?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1353250300&sr=1-45
I've looked around and it appears out of the box the 660 is faster BUT I've also heard when you overclock em the 7850 takes the lead. The memory and core clock speeds (stock) are higher on the 660, but the 7850 has a 256bit interface vs 192bit on the 660.
And then there's this guy:

they're all very close in price, preformance tho... I'm not sure.
I play MWO all the time and use photoshop cs5 a lot.
System specs:
CPU- intel quadcore 9550 2.83 ghz, 12mb cache, 1333 fsb
Mobo- EVGA nForce 790i Ultra
ram- 4gb pc16000 ddr3, 2000mhz
psu- 650watt
monitor res: 1920x1200
Current video card: Sparkle GeForce GTS 250 Video Card - 1024MB DDR3
SLI/crossfire: no
Overclock: maybe, I need to oc my cpu and ram first I think
