[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SuicidalSplatter [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jpgarcia6 I ended up getting a i7 3770k for around $130. Should I buy myself a 660ti or use the money I saved to buy a 680? I'm not just doing gaming by the way. I plan on doing advanced 3D visual effects in college.[/quote] If you can afford the 680, go for it, I think the extra CUDA cores will help. Otherwise, go with a 670 and put more money elsewhere.[/quote] I'm really trying to go all out so I'm leaning towards the 680. The CUDA cores should help out a lot with rendering. Anybody know when the 700 series is coming out?
