August 14, 201312 yr help me decide please!!! Does that sound right to you? If it sounds too good to be true...you know the rest.
August 14, 201312 yr Author well the 760 is brand new and the 670 is used and he doesnt need it Brad Scullion
August 15, 201312 yr well the 760 is brand new and the 670 is used and he doesnt need it I would be very careful. It's Craigslist after all. If the guy ends up selling you junk, consider it a loss and be prepared to move on.
August 15, 201312 yr Author of course thanks for the concern! but honesty which one is better if i were to actually buy? Brad Scullion
August 15, 201312 yr 250 and 670 buy it but want test it out and make sure the card works for 250. Seller does not like that option then I would pass on it for the price. Maybe if money no object offer 200 without testing. Got 760 gtx and not bad gpu that will on store shelves for a while.
August 15, 201312 yr Author So i should go with the 670? Cause i mean they both are 4 gb if that makes a difference? Brad Scullion
August 15, 201312 yr So i should go with the 670? Cause i mean they both are 4 gb if that makes a difference? Being used asside, yes for FSX the 670 is a better card.

August 17, 201312 yr The 670 is very slightly faster than the 760. Not sure what your experience was but mine was that card cant keep up if you want to use high settings and decent AA and Alpha AA, the 670 seems like almost twice the card than the 760 in FSX though it should be right there, something holding it back YMMV. What I want of course is the 780.

What I want of course is the 780. At 1920x1080 and 16xS FSAA, I found performance of my GTX 670 identical to my old GTX 460 1GB. FSX is so CPU bound, being released in the age when the GeForce 8800-series ruled, 7 years ago, that even mid-range cards are enough unless you're pushing multiple displays. In modern, GPU-bound games where the GTX 460 was struggling, the GTX 670 was a massive improvement over the GTX 460. -
