I am at work now, but last night I got my 670. It came with an overclocked core of 980 (up from 915 I believe) and stock 1502 memory.
I overclocked it by roughly +120 core and +200 mem, stable tested ran fine..but crashed about 15 minutes into some heavy BC2 action. Clocked it down to +100 and +180, and it was smooth for hours.
On benchmarking, it never ran over 71 degrees celc (the GTX 280 it replaced, at stock speeds, easily hit 90+ benching) and what's more, the fan never even broke 50%.
This thing maxed out Skyrim and I didn't perceive any FPS drop.
I also ran FRAPS on BC2 which is notorious for awful FPS. I have a 120 hz monitor, on BC2 with my 280 GTX I was able to get 120 fps sometimes, and 60-80 a lot at low/medium settings and no frills.
On the 670 I can easily put all of that on high with FXAA for the same FPS. Granted, because it's BC2, I don't get steady 120, it is quite nice.
The thing that impressed me most was FF14. I haven't played it much (because it was awful at release) but I tried maxing that game on my GTX 280 and it literally froze. Was 1-5 FPS and couldn't walk. On the 670.. I literally cranked every single setting to max with bloom and all that jazz and it didn't even slow it down an ounce.
This thing is an absolute beast, can't wait to SLI it.
