The GTX660 is the stronger card for games. Only if you will be bitcoin mining would you want to choose the HD7850.

Will gtx 660 max out almost every game?

Pretty much. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/660 and note where frame rate seems a little low that the resolution is 1920x1200, not x1080. You may have to reduce AA, but most other settings should be very high to max.
