You buy 660ti is very close to the 670 performance. Might as well buy the next level of gfx. Always remember that the TI behind is actually a overall boost of that current version. It probably reaching its peaked performance. So it is still better to buy the 670.

On the other hand if you can afford the 670. Might as well get the 760.
