I'm looking at getting the MSI GTX 580 Frozr II

Would I be better off waiting until the 670 is released for spec and possible price changes?

Yes, the most likely chain of events being 670 launches for £325, 7950 price cut to £250-£275, you buy a 7950 and clock the nuts off it.

Well my current build is more than 4 years old now and has had it. Even takes ages loading WoW now. Really, really want a new build NOW, but if it's going to be worth the 2 weeks wait maybe I'm better off holding on

Want a 660 Ti myself, in the next 2-3 weeks I want to
purchase a 3770k, a h100 and a new nvidia graphics card
preferrably a 660ti.

Hey Gibbo how about offering a deal on ivybridge cpu's
corsair cooling and keplar card's when purchased together?!.

If you don't mind the added difficulties, one of these will be better than the H100 in terms of value for money and you can stick your graphics cards in aswell :)

The sooner the better for me.

I was close to getting a 680GTX (still might) but stock shortages and price increases put me off.

So instead I was going to go for a 560ti or 570, but the fact that the 680 uses slightly less power than a 560ti, but still gives double the frame rate means it has to be Nvidia 6-series for me!

Really tempted by a GTX 680 now too. Even though I really have no need for that much power :)

I just wish they'd release the 670Ti prices now as I want my computer next week!

I'm all of a quandry now... I've got a HOF on order but then for not much more I could probably go 670-SLI and in the long run lose less on re-selling the 670's than I will do if I try to swap the HOF for a pair of 685's at a later date
