but if you want to ultimately future proof, like get 2+ years out of this card then go for the 670.

I was kinda hoping around 3-5 before needinh am upgrade.
@rolo I have a Cooler Master Storm Enforcer. It's a 500x300x200 ( I think) mid tower with a 200mm front fan and a 120mm back exhaust fan.
I removed the ssd cage so the psu cables are as low as possible and the hdd cage for better airflow.
I may get a cpu fan and / or a 200mm top fan.
Not sure whether to get the one with fans or not....
With nvidia's Adaptive V Sync, if you get below 60fps, it turns it off....60 FPS = 30 FPS w/vsynch, which is annoying to run without) on games that you play.
The Prophetron 5000 says 6-18 months longer.
See my post in the EVGA thread of yours, same topic.
I would consider a cheaper/discounted 580 over the 660Ti (same performance). Would you buy a 580 right now? If not, then don't buy the 660Ti.
Your on the evga forums too?

I subconsciously just want the best card available
Better to build a balanced system that satisfies your needs now, than blow money on something that will need more expenditure further down the line to justify itself.
95% of the time, your GPU will be the bottleneck (100% at maxed settings).
And overclock the K!
When you build your PC, I suggest you don't install Windows 8 on it.
