Which would you get? Prices are total paid with shipping factored in.
Cards are base model (915Mhz) EVGA 670, and OC model (1019MHz) MSI 660.
I know there's been some complaints of ref 670s (including this one) artifacting, freezing, etc when going past just 60c, but according to EVGA, those were primarily a handful of cases with the first batch and specifically GPU vs card/cooler related.
I plan to OC, and usually shoot for the highest factory OC with similar cooler. The card will only be used a couple years until Maxwell comes out, so I want to keep the price low, but I also want to max out settings in most games with the exception of Metro and such. I don't like some features like blur anyway.
