I neeed help!!

I just ordered a £200 GPU, the MSI HAWK 7870 edition, i got it today and opened it up to have a look at it, now i havent even got the rest of my parts to my build so i cant use it.

SO HERE IS MY PROBLEM, the new Nvidia 660 cards have come out for £10 less and offer just abit more perfomance in BF3 and other games, what can i do could i do a exchange of GPU, or am i screwed?

EDIT: just looked on some reviews/video and the cards Are EXTREMLY CLOSE, the 7870 HAWK edition wins over the gigabyte 660 wildfire edition in just about every game. So it looks like im sticking with this card then.

You can return it under the Distance Selling Regulations if you had it delivered but you'll have to cover the cost of returning it.

Return it.

The 660 does look good.

Return it.

The 660 does look good.

DO you think its worth it? the 7870 or the 660?? i will be gamign on my LG plasma 32 inch at 1080P?

Depends really. if you just want a stock card out of the box to boss games then probably is worth returning and getting a 660. however if you do some good overclocking on your 7870 you will probably find it surpasses perfomance of 660's?

If you overclock your graphics cards you'll have to work out which is best overclocked or there may not be much in it.

So it seems overall they aren't much different in terms of performance
