System Specs

Yep, a GTX670 would be almost as fsat as the GTX680, and a fair bit cheaper. With money saved, you can opt for a 120GB SSD for OS, and if your heart's set on the VR, I ain't going to talk you out of it, but use it for storage, it cannot match an SSD in terms of sheer speed and responsiveness. Otherwise, scrap that VR and get a 1TB/2TB WDC Black for storage. You're reusing that HX850W PSU, right? It's powerful emnough that, in the future, should you decide on a 2nd GTX670 for some SLi gaming, that PSU would handle the added load with ease. Might I ask, why nV cards only? Best bang right now, on the higher end scale, is the HD7950 which OC like a mad mutha.....
