Would that be worth the extra 50 bucks?

there is no point of getting old GTX660 , then they released the new GTX 760 , it is ALOT FASTER and 256bit , so if you cn get 2x760 in SLI do it .

what ever you choose , avoid AMD , you will loose PhysX , and this is what you will loose :

so get GTX ...

if you cant pay for 2x760 in SLI , then get a GTX 770

20 of the BEST TOP Games you mean .

PhysX is a MUST. and all people who say dont get it are Jelouse of not having it.

oh and even PS4 has it .. Nvidia allowed them to use PhysX , and all PS4 games will be PhysX enabled , meaning the same games on PC as well.
 

Ok this is probably the most nonsense post ever.

PhysX is not a must, I have an Nvidia card, and I really don't care for it. And just look at all these 'top' games...

The Xbox One and PS4 will use Physx in the exact way the 360 and PS3 did, non GPU accelerated, i.e. AMD systems can use it. Saying all PS4 games will use it is a ridiculous statement.

there was never PhysX on 360 and PS3 ...

you dont know what you are talking about.
 

Yes there was, console games like Mass Effect, Batman Arkham City and Silent Hill Downpour use it, all of which are available on a 360, an AMD system.
