Good Manafacturer for the GTX 670

[Repress]

Poking around the newbuild forum and thanks to the helpful members of Toms hardware im pretty sure the 670 is for me.
But now i have to ask who is a good manufacturer for the card?

My main concerns are fan noise, cleanliness next, and heat giving off.
I don't have much experience with overclocking so a factory overclocked on might be good for me.

I have not ordered any parts yet.


Also one more question for you guys :]
Do you think the typical setup of an i5 3570k with a gtx 670 and all the usual things posted around the newbuild forums would work well in the upcoming Elder Scrolls MMO?

This card has low fan noise and is a BEAST of a card its faster than a GTX 680

Yes it's worth it for the 670 Top Generally speaking, most non-reference cards will overclock better.

IMO, my money is better spent on an aftermarket card with a non-reference PCB and a formidable cooling solution, but your tastes may be different.
