Which one of these video cards would you guys prefer? EVGA’s GTX 660 appears to have a slight edge over Sapphire’s 7850…would definitely like a second opinion though. Thank you all in advance for the advice!

Maybe this post will help you to decide which card is best and after you have finished just bookmark the page for future comparisons? Good luck with your choice.

After the new 12.11 driver release by AMD, you have a toss up. That link above, while valuable, doesnt paint the most accurate picture since those drivers were released a couple days ago. Also, the price you typed and what is in the links are different...We also reviewed the card a couple weeks ago (same older drivers, but...http://www.overclockers.com/galaxy-gtx660gc-review)

You cant compare specs between architectures either... they work in different ways.

Thank you both for the links. Despite AMD coming out with new drivers lately, I think I'm going to go with the GTX 660. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Nvidia.

Thanks for the help!
