Yeah I went to leave my feedback today on the card and saw it discontinued. Hopefully it will be back in stock soon for those wanting it. Again I cannot put words against how impressed I am with it. Using the same fan profile in MIS Afterburner my temps have not exceeded 56 celsius and I was at 75-77 celsius with the 570 and it was loud as ****....

Wish I had the means to bench my own cards, lol I say that because I do not say there Harware Canucks reviews is not legit by any means - just that the review I posted totally contradicts it (7950 won in every benchmark but Batman and even beats the 670 in quite a few), lol

*** Again the reason why I wish I could bench my own cards sometimes before buying lol But we know that will never be possible....

Thanks for posting this review as it confirms what I already knew: As long as AA and MSAA is turned off, the 660ti can dominate all games and trade blows with high end AMD cards.

looked like it handled itself fairly well with AA, even.

Ditto. Also get the card that is going to last you longer if you do not like to upgrade often. If you play games that are not vram intensive you should be fine. Otherwise the 3 gb on the 7950 is a bargain. Not to mention except for the one review up above almost all other reviews have the 7950 ahead of the 660ti with max settings in game especially now that the 7950 can be bad for the same if not cheaper plus 1 gb vram more also.

Do not get me wrong 660ti is a very good card but the 7950 is the best value for what you get for the $ paid though. And I have almost always used Nvidia from a 560ti to a 570 and now my 7950.

my 7950 is being weird.....its only in METRO 2033......on the benchmark tool it only uses 60% of the GPU max but in game is does 99% as well as BF3 also 99% almost 100% of the time!!

I know my processor is old but it is not above 80% useage lol and its a dual core!!
