Which 670 from ocuk would you choose?

Nothing wrong with any of the cards mentioned. Really just a matter of what takes your fancy. Either that, or toss a coin.
 
670 FTW ? comes withe stock 680 heat sink & pcb and 145% power target. Also gets all that hot air out of the case, Perfect if you would like to go sli later ;) ?
 
Gotta be the GB WF 670 3x! Cool, quiet, and on the 680 PCB they usually o/c VERY well.

Utterly happy with mine.:cool:
 
+1 for windforce but on special offer not at the £350 price

EX OC is also an OK card if you get lucky on the OC of it but less likely than with the windforce

EVGA "reference" cards at £280 were also a good deal but OCUK seem to have stopped selling them - they've got bigger heatsinks and less noisy fans than the other reference cards

I read they are quite noisy. I could be wrong though and would be interested to hear your verdict.

I have the palit jetstream and tbh I don't find it that noisey but noise from a gfx card is a very subjective thing I guess. Very happy with the cardd for price/performance
 
Installed the Palit GTX 670 JetStream last night.

At idle it's silent, but when running Heaven Benchmark the temps hit 83° and the fan was making a loud high pitch noise (not coil whine, hard to describe).

RMA in progress so hope the replacement doesn't have the same issue as it's a really nice card.

what kind of temps does it reach? just wondering cause im getting mine in two weeks time, and would you say its louder than case fans? im hoping not cause i have 2 intake fans and 2 exhaust fans, and their loud, doesnt really bother me tbh, just interested in knowing in advance. cheers.
 
I benched mine with heaven when I first had it and got the following:

max temp: 78c
max fan speed: 62% 1920 rpm
max gpu load 99%
max core clock: 1150 Mhz
max mem clock : 1527 Mhz
max vddc : 1.1620
max power consumption 94.1%

Should probably add my setup: i5 2500k oc'd to 4.8 under an Antec Kuhler 920, ssd, ASRock Z68 extreme 4 mobo and all wrapped in a coolermaster silencio case which, when I do a rebuild I'll be replacing as the air flow is shocking. plus the silencing foam insulates it all.
