Which 670 should i get?

[TheNachoman180]

I have recently decided to not go with the 660 ti because apparently the bus causes lag with aa and 1080p or higher resolutions. I am looking to play battlefield 3 on ultra at 1080p with a solid 60fps.

660 ti i was thinking of: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=21727
670 1: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=20209
670 2: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=20324

I want to save as much money as i can. I can overclock if necessary but need a card with good cooling so i can keep solid temps too.

Whats the gaming difference between 192 and 256 bit? Whats the difference with the 670s? (Appart from the fans) What kinda performance increase am i going to get my getting a 670 over a 660 ti?

Do not base your graphics card selection on specs. Base it on actual performance, preferebly for the games you will play.
Each design is a blend of factors and trade offs. A general ranking should be sufficient.
Here is one set of benchmarks: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6159/the-geforce-gtx-660-ti-review/13
Since you have a budget, I would go ahead and buy a GTX660ti. BF3 is not a particularly graphics sensitive game.
I would also prefer a card with the dual slot reference cooler. It gets heat directly out of your case.

You think thats the best? It has to be futureproof too! Also what about the 192 bit bus? THe benchmarks say that card gets 50fps i want solid 60

also what about overclocking? This card has only one fan
