ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU II TOP or other?

[wilzy89]

Before I say anything, I am in Australia. I will post all prices in both AU$ and the appropriate US$ conversion, but would prefer to shop within Australia.

I posted a thread thread earlier about upgrading from my 260GTX to a 670GTX or similar, in order to get the best performance I can out of BF3.

I have chosen the 670GTX all but definitely and had my eye on the ASUS GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU II TOP. However, this card is looking to be near impossible to get now (lack of stock in Aus), and may even be a little out of my budget.

So my other options are:
EVGA GeForce GTX 670 Superclocked+ 4GB at $599 which is the absolute maximum I will spend.
EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB FTW at $529
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 670 Overclocked 2GB at $489

I'm basically choosing from PC Case Gear, PLE and Austin Computers. If there are any other good sites please suggest. Might even look at getting in on Newegg.

Are there any personal experiences with these cards and BF3? I will probably be playing Icenhancer 2.1 GTAIV when it comes out too. I am after the best bang for buck!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If you are on more than one monitor you should get EVGA GeForce GTX 670 Superclocked+ 4GB if your playing on one monitor go with the cheaper one

Looking at Newegg, is the EVGA GeForce GTX 670 Superclocked+ 4GB at US$470 worth getting over the ASUS GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU II TOP at US$430?

Does anybody know anything about import duty on these to Australia?

Depends on how many monitors your using if your using two or more than get EVGA GeForce GTX 670 Superclocked+ 4GB over the ASUS GeForce GTX 670 DirectCU II TOP and i have no idea about import duty on these to Australia

unfortunately newegg doesnt ship to us folks here aus, may i suggest looking at umart.com.au though their stock levels are really random, customer service is great though imo.

Thanks, but umart seems to have less range and the same if not worse prices than my other sites.
