660 vs 7850 (overclocked performance)

Been looking for a new card, can't decide between the two. By the sounds of it the 7850's overclock extremely well and offer great performance (even more so now some at at £150 like the MSI), but is that enough to put them ahead of the GTX 660's?

Will be gaming at 1920 x 1080, mainly stuff like WoW, Skyrim. Would also like to play new games like Borderlands 2 etc

System spec is i3 2100, Z68 mobo, 8GB 1600 RAM and an OCZ 700w something x stream.

Noise isn't an issue, since the KFA 660 and the MSI 7850 are pretty quiet.
 
at 1080P you can max both of them on a 7850 before you start OCing and they give better bang for buck currently.
Thats including the high res texture pack on skyrim
