GTX 670 vs GTX 680 VS GTX 760

[1bradshaw1]

Hi there guys!

Building a new PC and just wondering what people's thoughts are on GPU's?

GTX 670 Asus Direct CUII= £239.99
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-299-AS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=2294

GTX 680 MSI lightning Power Edition = £279.95
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-213-MS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=2255

GTX 760 MSI Gaming = £209.99

GTX 760 MSI HAWK = £239.99
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-214-MS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1830


Thoughts? Not sure whether to wait for more 680's to come down to the Power Edition range (really want a EVGA GTX 680 FTW) or save my money and get a 760? Is the extra FPS really worth the money?

Thanks!

You have most of the best options available here and its hard to choose.

The GTX 680 you linked is not the Lightening one. So it will have around the same performance almost with The ASUS GTX670 DCII OC and the MSI GTX760 HAWK (still its MSI GTX680 PE > ASUS GTX670 DCII OC > MSI GTX760 HAWK but the difference should be like 1%-2% each other).
The MSI GeForce GTX 760 Twin Frozr IV OC GAMING on the other hand offers performance of around 5% less than the others but It doesn't cost so much.

If I were you I would go with the MSI GeForce GTX 760 Twin Frozr IV OC GAMING if I would like to save some money.

Thanks guys!

I was thinking this too, although the 680 does pull away from the 760, but this has caught my eye!

GTX 680 Asus Direct CU2 v2 = £286

AHHH!
I am a sucker for a backplate and will be using the Corsair 350D so looks are important

haha!

Thanks

This GTX680 has reference clocks.
The MSI GTX760 (which has same clocks as EVGA GTX760 SC) is only 9% behind. Are you sure you want to spend £75 more for 9%?

Oh god, hahah!

I know, i have decided to make the saving and grab a GTX 760, thanks guys!

However, just final thoughts... on this price.... is it worth it?

Is that good? I'm looking at building a gaming computer and I put the 760 in it. Is it good?
