first thing , let I say this card be a beast . my current set up be : i7 860 lightly overclock @ 3.3 Ghz 8gb ddr3 Ram 128 gb ssd drive gtx 670 Superclocked , overclock with precision x @ +44 mhz gpu clock offset & +654 mhz memory offset -lrb- pretty stable , test so far with bf3 and heaven benchmark -rrb- I be get around 80 + frame rate during gameplay in bf3 and it run smooth . run everything on ULTRA smoothly . so far , this card seem to I like the best `` Bang for you Buck '' as I have see people put it . I understand that the gtx 670 ftw be slightly clock higher a couple mhz , but for 53 $ more you get double the memory . I also understand that most game right will not take advantage of the extra Video Ram , but this card be a great investment now and for the future . another $ 100 for the gtx 680 which benchmark lower than the gtx 670 do not seem like a wise move for I personally , and honestly the ftw version do seem very tempting as I typically want the `` fastest '' GPU I could afford , but as my brother say , why not spend another $ 50-ish buck and get double the Video Ram , especially for game in the future . note that you can easily run a stable overclock of this card to be faster than both the FTW edition and the gtx 680 , but with this edition you get double the v-ram . the choice be yours , but one thing for sure , this card be great . 5 Stars for new-egg and they customer service with great\/fast shipping and 5 Stars for EVGA and this high end graphic card . key statement here : BEST BANG for your buck ... period .
