I came into a GTX 660 a few months on the cheap ($70) and have been happy with its performance over my HD 7770. I will be coming into some extra cash thanks to my birthday in a few weeks and was thinking of upgrading again for future games (TitanFall looking so good :) 

Would it be worth going to a GTX 770 or HD 7970 both costing around $400 or would the upgrade be too minor for the cost?

Also if I do upgrade the 660 would go into my Lil brothers rig and would be an upgrade from his HD 6800.

so you are saying you got your gtx660 for $70? thats a once in a lifetime bargain.

gtx770 would be about 40-50% faster and is one of the best gpu's for its price. You would be able to play more games at higher settings.
note- the gtx660 performs somewhere between gtx570 and gtx580

That is a good deal faster. And yes I was lucky :)  a friend who had zero need for it won it off some site and sold it to me on the cheap.
