MSI GTX 660 Ti Power Edition Graphics Card with Triple Overvoltage and Enhanced PWM Design (N660TI PE 2GD5/OC)

I was running an EVGA GTX 580 OC'd and very happy with that but the itch to 'sidegrade' to this came up when someone offered to buy my 580. $265 for the 580 and I grabbed this for at the time $300, so it cost me $35 total.

Specs:
3570k @ 4.2GHz
ASUS P8Z68-M Pro (BIOS 3806)
N660GTX-Ti PE/OC 2GD5
dual 1080P 23" ASUS monitors

Yet to experience and detriment from the 192-bit bus @ 1080p resolution.
Did notice drop in Crysis2 FPS, but next driver release will address that one.
Runs so cool and quiet, that part is amazing.
Max'd at 70C during gaming.

As to the upgrade/sidegrade from the GTX 580 excpet for Crysis2 presently I can tell it's a better running card aside from compute, speaking on gaming and efficiency..
A more noticeable boost might have came from the GTX 670 from the GTX 580 but if this card settles in the $250+ range then I can see it's a force to be reckoned with..

This card is brilliant.
Bought it for my new rig, in order to play the latest games on max graphics.
It runs BF3 on ultra without any problems, but best of all - it is so quiet I can't even hear it.
I have only heard it when I turned up the fan speed to 100%, and even then, it's still quiet - incredible.

I haven't OC'ed it yet, as I haven't needed to, but I'm sure I will in the future, just for fun !

This card also is super elegant and looks lovely in my Asus Z77 Sabertooth.

Finally, the software worked like a breeze, and I got the latest things off the website.
Afterburner is a great OC'ing tool.

Overall, if you are looking for a good card - this one is it.
