I would say they are pretty much the same especially with the amd drivers 12.11 and you can OC a lot the HD 7870.

i didn't like the sounds of the 660ti having a 192 bit memory bus, so i went with the 256 bit 7870.

660Ti is the better card but it is more expensive.

i pay the difference of the gtx660ti, hd7950 is the only reason to compare.

I grabbed a pair of 7870's and could not be happier, I was looking at the 660TI but couldn't justify the extra $$

agreed, almost $300 for the 660Ti whereas the 7870 i bought was $225.

nVidia 660Ti and AMD 7870 trade blows depending on the game.

According to this site the HD7870 DirectCU ii appears to be quite warm at load.

Compared to the version 1 which is no longer in production.

No. The 660Ti trade blows with the stock 7950.
