Are these cards so expensive because fewer people need to buy them, or do they really have that much more tech in them?

There are cheaper shroud style 660 ti cards that you can look at such as this one from PNY. Maybe you still prefer the EVGA model but I would at least consider a cheaper one. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008TN8782/?tag=pcpapi-20 Also, you really don't need to spend $80 to get a 600watt psu unless...

How does the middle card not melt?

Any way you can sell your giftcard on something like cardpool and save your money until you can get a radeon 7750? Its going for $89 on amazon. You could try the 440, I just think sub 30 fps is going to put you at a huge disadvantage against people getting 60+ at all times.

Ultimately it is up to your personal preference. Personally I would lower a few graphics settings just slightly to hit 60fps average before I spend money on a new card in the same generation. I believe the GTX 670 FTW should average you between 60-70 fps maxed settings in Crysis 3.

If you have a little more money why not replace that Asus monitor with the ASUS VG248QE? It costs more, but it does 144hz which will really allow you to take advantage of that 7950.
