I am very hesitant when it comes to nvidia cards. I use a amd cpu. My understanding is that for best performance over all you have to pare amd+amd or intel+nvida.
Not true at all. Your 5670 will work exactly the same with my Intel CPU as it does with your AMD CPU.
Second,nvidia cards are more expensive then amd.
Yes, Nvidia has higher priced cards, but those are the best cards available today. If you compare the price of a AMD card with an Nvidia card with the same performance, the prices are not that far off. At 1080p, the GTX 970 is about equal to the R9 290X in performance, uses a lot less electricity, and only $25 more than the 290X.
