Hello,
First of all I'd like to say that I've only recently discovered this site and it has made my life much easier.
I'm currently in the process of building a new pc.
I'm going with:
i5 3570k
ASUS P8z77-V LK
G.Skill 2x4 GB DDR3 1600
So my next step is to get a graphics card.
I was a bit confused because based on the graphics card hierarchy on here, an HD 7970 is supposed to be a tier above a GTX 670. However, through searching the forums, people seem to be arguing otherwise.
As I was going through my search, I found two great deals on both cards.
Galaxy GTX 670 ~ $330 after rebate:

XFX HD 7970 ~ $360 after rebate:

I'm looking for overall performance as I usually play a variety of games at various resolutions.
