Now that the 770 is out and priced accordingly, its easy to recommend a 7950 if u can get it for around 260-270 after rebates. Just think of the bundled games as extra bonus.

Now that the 780 is out and benched, it seems the best deal right now for single card high end performance/$.

Buy the single fastest videocard you can afford, think about sli/xfire later...

I would say 670....maybe get another 670 if necessary later on sli is better than xfire right now... you can also see if there is a 670 variant of NVidia 7 series coming soon...

Tax....

I think wait approach is better. The next generation will most likely be just as powerful for half the price...just my 2 cents...

I have a 30" 2560x1600 monitor with a 7950, no problems with gaming so far...

I have a oc'd 7950 and don't share any of the problems u stated...

Nvidia does have a stronger name brand than AMD...

2 x 7950 3gb will only cost you a bit over $500, something to think about

Option 2

It works both ways. I do agree rmaing a card for the sole purpose of bad overclocks isn't very valid. But I do understand someone's frustration when they get a card that is unable to overclock like similar cards. Sometimes u win, sometimes u lose...such is life!

I don't crossfire, so that's probably why it doesn't affect me. I have one 7950(1150/1500) and don't see any of the problems mentioned. I'm gaming on a 30 inch 2560 x 1600 monitor.

I have a 7950 pushing 2 x 30 inch monitors plus a 50 inch 1080p tv. Haven't had any problems with any games yet, although I've only really game on 1 monitor. I oc'd my card to 1150 core and 1500 mem. I guess that helps quite a bit. If you keep an eye out, a 7950 oc can be had for around 260-270...

I have a 7950 overclocked to 1150/1500 super stable, haven't tried to go any higher because I'm quite satisfied already. The 7950 should be compared to the 670, 660ti vs the 7870.
