I've been doing some research on how much performance I'll loose going from 570 sli to single 670 and this is what I've come up with since most reviews don't give a good comparison
580 is approx 20 percent faster than single 570
670 is approx 50 percent faster than single 570
670 is approx 30 percent faster than single 580
570 sli is approx 25 percent faster than single 670
570 sli is approx 20 percent faster than single 680
670 sli is approx 50 percent faster than 570 sli
670 sli - 135 fps
570 sli - 90 fps
680 - 80 fps
670 - 75 fps
580 - 60 fps
570 - 50 fps
does this sound about right?

570 sli is around 10-15% slower than the 580 sli used on that benchmark.
If you ever hit vram limit on the 570 sli the 670 will probably beat it.
And remember an over clocked 670 will pretty much match a stock 680.

My stock 570's get 94 fps on heaven 3.0 with 1680x1050, 4aa, 4af, tess normal. Would be nice if Legion ran at those settings to get a comparison. I've already sold one of my 570's to get a single 670 not sure if I should have.

how much did you sell your 570's for? i sold one for 170 pounds, the same price I got it for and bought one 670. should probably look for a bit more for the second card and grab another 670.

I don't believe that you managed to sell each 570 for £75 less than a 670!
Reasonable second hand prices right now would be -
GTX 460 - £75
560 ti - £125
480 - £150
570 - around £160-175
580 - £250.

That should have been dispatched yesterday since you ordered before 4:30PM, I'd perhaps drop a thread in the customer service forum and see if maybe they will give you cheaper/free Saturday delivery since you should have had the card delivered today if you chose next day delivery, you won't get it before Monday now though.

Ok thanks, I live in Ireland so it normally takes an extra day or two anyway for delivery. I was expecting Monday at the earliest for it to arrive but it could be Tuesday perhaps, but yeah I'll try the customer service thread and find out

you say that, but people on certain auction sites are idiots - I lost about £10 selling my 580 3GB and upgrading to a 680 cost me all of about £60-70

Just got my email confirmation stating my order has been shipped, yay I can relax a bit now 
I've seen 580's sell for £175 on the MM. Personally I wouldn't pay more than £180-ish now, for a 580.

I'm more curious as to what people are expecting for new prices.
I'm kind of thinking this:
I'd expect 570 to maybe go to around £160-200, and a 580 to go to perhaps £220-250 depending on models. Maybe push that to £270 for a 3GB model. 670 will settle, hopefully around about 300-380, and 680 at 420+

Yea I overpriced those sorry, £200 max now.
Any news on more 4gb versions?. The only ones on here, or anywhere else are the EVGA short PCB ones.
Iv'e looked online and can find next to nothing on any other 4gb versions, except a full PCB Zotac card that won't be available for ages

I was having an absolute nightmare trying to install the drivers for mine ... 'No compatible hardware found'.
Thats what happens when you try to install 301.24 instead of 301.25 lol. I found the correct latest drivers on the disk so didnt need to download them.
