Hi guys, was going to wait till end of month to get a new GPU and was planning on spending something close to the £300 mark (+/-).
Now the GTX670 has been released it seems to be the better buy over the 7950 i was previously looking at, so i think ill take the plunge and sort something out over the weekend :-). I also need a new PSU as my current one is an unbranded 700W that came with the case a few years ago.
So my questions are;
Which GTX670 to go for as in is any one manufacturer preferred over the other apart from the differences in 2 or 3 year warranties.
What size PSU would you recommend i would need for the above card and what recommendation if any you could give for this.

With the PSU added i could stretch my overall budget to £400 or at a stretch £450 (as long as the wife doesn't find out ;):eek:)

I currently run 2 monitors at 1920x1080, and the pc is used primarily for gaming, specs below.

Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor
Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD4 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard
Corsair XMS3 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
Corsair A50 High-Performance CPU Cooler
Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive
GeForce GTX 460 (previous build)
A Couple of WD HDD's (previous build)

Many Thanks in Advance for your Time and Help :D
