[Muks2386]

Hey guys , title says it all . Which one of these would be better ? MSI GTX 660 or Sapphire HD 7870 XT ?

7870 XT.

It uses a "crippled" version of a 7900 series GPU. They are beastly.

i always find myself supporting the nvindia cards but i have to advise you to go for the 7870!its more powerful at most games!

The 7870 XT will beat the gtx 660. Even a regular hd 7870 can beat a gtx 660.

in somegames gtx 660 seems to get higher FPS cause of the chipset giving cuda cores and so on!but ok in most of the games is a bit behind the 7870!

in some games a 7870 can beat a 660......depending on the reviewer and game, but the XT, yeah, thats a full class above them both.
