System Specs

Alright, I've done all my research, and I've come to a decision. I wanna go for gtx 670 4gb sli.

I've looked at the gtx 690, and even though it's a great card, and it has a nice power consumption rating... it doesn't have enough "kick at your face" hardware in it to be priced at 1000$... that's way too much for what it's worth. It does have 4gb tho...

Then I've thought about gtx 680 sli... and the only thing that bugs me is the 2gb memory on them cards... It's not bad obviously, for all the games out there now... But when more games like skyrim (properly optimized this time) come out with lots of texture packs added... I bet the extra vram will pay off. It's true tho I could go for gtx 680 4gb sli... but the gtx 670 sli has a VERY similar performance to them... so ...

Basically I wanna get an upgrade that's gonna last me a while...

And so here I am with my wanting to get 2x gtx 670 4gb in SLI. But I need your help guys. These babies are quite expensive, and I'm trying to find the cheapest and best deal I can find HERE in Canada.

If you chance upon a nice deal, Please let me know


Also VERY important: I need to make Absolutly sure I can fit 2x 670 4gb on my MOBO, especially if they're goin to be triple slot cards. I know 1 guys in this thread thinks I can, but I'd like to make 100% sure I can.
