Do you have the box for the card? It should say the model number, google that. Do you plan on upgrading your card in the future? I'm asking because an ivy bridge i5 definitely won't bottleneck that gpu.

When would you upgrade to a 670? The 700/9000 series of gpus could be out by then, so you should consider that. Also, 650-670 is the entire series of cards worth gettign from nvidia this gen. Look at the 650ti boost, 660, 7870 le, and the 7950. I don't think the 670 is worth getting in most cases. In all honesty, ivy bridge i5's won't bottleneck any single card on the market that I could think of,, but you can still wait for haswell if you want.
