Does anyone know where I can see some benchmarks on this particular card? All I can find is the 660 ti 3gb or the 660 3gb superclocked edition

Should I go with this card? or is there something better in the price range? No more than $250. It's going in a gaming pc

8gb corsair vengeance ram
phenom II 965 black edition quad core
550w power supply

Thats for the 2gb version...I'm looking at the 3gb version. Do the benchmarks not change in the 3gb version?

Games usually don't take advantage of video RAM higher than 2 GB. Most work flawlessly with 1 GB, anything over 2 GB with same card is of no use and would just cause 3-4 FPS increase. So that won't benefit you.

Get a 2 GB version, 3 GB is kind of overkill.
