HD 7970 vs GTX 670 Ti?

[gilkag]

Which one is better for gaming?

I'm planning to buy a new pc, and I dont know which graphics card would be better for games like Crysis 3 and Bf3.

Thanks!

It will be hard for you to get good unbiased advice here on "Tom's Radeons"...
nVidia will give you a much better experience - but you may have to spend $5 or $10 bucks more.
Lunch money! Buy nVidia, pay more.
Simple.

so basically your'e saying that I should buy gtx 660 ti instead of HD 7970?
kinda weird, because alot of people said that HD 7970 is alot better than gtx 660 ti.

IMO if you are considering a 7970 then you might as well get a 7950, it has great performance for 1080p gaming. (assuming you have a 1080p monitor) There are benchmarks that show that the performance increase is very small and i don't think it is worth it for $100+ more.
These are the benchmarks.

AMD has great performance for your money while nVidia has PhysX and cuda. So it all boils down to whether or not you want the effects and cuda which is used for rendering and such, but i think not so much for gaming.
