Why not?
So it wouldnt be worth upgrading from a 7870 to the 760 but it would b worth it for a 7950?
Dont see the logic in your answer.

Hold on a minute that wasn't the question. He never mentioned anything about a 7950. He asked if it was worth upgrading from a 7870 to a 760. The 760 is faster (about 10% give or take which = a couple of fps typically) but i wouldn't consider it a worthy upgrade imo not for an extra couple of fps. Its not faster in every game either, and this is an overclocked version of the 760.
I'm looking for a short graphics card to upgrade from my hd7850.
I've been eyeing up the Asus GTX760 DirectCu and the Asus GTX670 DirectCu Mini. Thing is, the GTX670 is almost £100 more expensive.
I believe from reviews that the GTX670 is about 5-10% faster than the GTX760, but it's not worth the extra right?
Just asking for a bit of a reality check here, really.

Assuming your card is overclocked, I doubt that a 760 would be that much of an upgrade over a 7850.
With the GTX670 mini your paying a premium for the smallness, if your considering a larger GTX760 then you obviously don't really need that smallness, why not just get a normal GTX670? cheaper than the mini and will be worth the extra over a GTX760.
The cheapest 670's I seen were the little 2 fan gigabyte ones I seen them go for as little as £250.
Not sure if there small enough but they look tiny to me. (length is 265mm according to one site)

Just a quick question
Would one of these be a lot quicker then a 6950 2gb ?
Cheers guys

I'd say the minimum you can expect would be around 15%, and an approx maximum of say 40% in some rare circumstances.

HD6950 is about equal to a HD7850.

GTX 760 Twin FrozR ordered. Sadly when I called OCUK at 4:30pm they couldn't get it to me for tomorrow so I had to go elsewhere.
Shou;d give me a decent boost from my GTX 460 1GB.

I think, so I have 2500K @ 4.2Ghz ~ 8GB ram etc I think my GTX 460 was holding me back in BF3 and COH2 so im hoping to see more fps and maybe go for some ultra detail.

MSI 760 OC De boxing
the BF3 test, very fast FPS very smooth.
GPU temperature under load max 42 degrees. However not 100% usage, max 75% or so. very quiet, less noise than the new AC 7 pro I just installed:/
