Best GTX 670 Card on the Market?

[SCanfield]

Hello. I was wanting to know what the best GTX 670 card on the market is. I don't really care about the $.

Asus DirectCU II TOP, if you can find one. All-around great card with upgraded components, and yet also one of the quietest, if not the quietest GTX 670 you can buy.

Isn't that card discontinued? If you could find the card that is second best that would be great. Lol

It looks like it might be. I had just read a new review of the Asus GTX 680 TOP, and figured the 670 version was available.

Checking out what's available on Newegg, I would go with the triple fan Gigabyte Windforce, the MSI PE/OC, Asus DirectCU OC, the EVGA FTW Signature 2, or the Galaxy GC. Those are all going to be very similar. If I had to choose, it'd be the Asus again.

Money is not the problem and I don't need to "save". I just want the best one.

Edit: I had to go back and take a good look at the Asus model. It says "overclocked" at the top, but the specs at the bottom show it as running at stock speeds. I would absolutely make sure you are gettting the "OC" version, if available. If they don't have it, then my choices will be 1A and 1B, due to the FTW's factory overclock, so it's a harder decision. Hard to go wrong with either one. It all depends on if you plan to overclock yourself, then get the Asus, if not or not much, then get the FTW.

#1: Asus DirectCUII OC. It may not be the TOP version, but you can overclock it yourself to match or exceed the TOP performance. Very quiet, very fast, high quality components. The only Perfect '10' score on TechPowerUp.

#2: EVGA FTW Signature 2. I like the cards with custom coolers as they keep the card quieter and cooler. Cooler temps means better Turbo Boosts.
