Hello... here is the general ranking list... http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

gtx 660

Something more recent?

They're all the same generation. 28nm chips out of TSCM(Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company). The technology dates to late 2011. The Radeon R9-XXX/GTX 7XX series is just a name change/refresh, but nothing new. NVidia actually spared the 660(GK104) from the BS. They didn't rename it!

Hello... I suggest a 256bit memory interface is the "best Bang for your Buck"... the retail GTX660 did not include that, thus a 670 or760 is required.

Nvidia doesn't really have a current generation equivalent card. The closest current gen card is the 760
