Seems like you'll get about twice the performance in most cases so yes, definitely go for it.

A card two-generations newer should be a worthy upgrade.

What res are you gaming @? I know the 460 is very good in games that are 1080p.my son has the 256bit version and it's very good. I'm sure the 660 is better, but is it really worth it?

Personally my 460 is still running games fine, I'm holding out for one more gen and the new consoles before I decide to upgrade.

No doubt that the 460 is still a decent card but going to a 660 Ti is definitely worth it.

You're still running a GTX 460 too? Nice!!

My 460 is still going strong at 1080p and i don't plan on upgrading anytime soon either, but that GTX 670 does look awfully tempting..

Why'd you change the avatar? I didn't recognise you :P On topic, 660 and 660ti are great value cards.

Meh, just to switch it up. That, and the fact that I've been really pleased with my fx6100, regardless of the sub par reviews.I figured why not show my support. Plus I got a little tired of my dancing Godzilla. I might put a different Zilla up later, or maybe even the infamous mothra. Lol

Yeah, I noticed that when I was trying to max all the settings out in Max Payne 3. It said I exceeded my VRAM limit, so I couldn't crank a certain setting up any higher. I have 2 6870s, but they only have 1gb, so it has me considering a single, 2-4gb GPU upgrade. I was able to crank everything else up, and it looked very good, but the fact that I was limited sorta bothered me.

I don't like to be limited, I want to go as far as I can. Max Payne 3 for example takes up 1.8GB VRAM at 1200p and no AA.:lol:

There is literally no reason to buy a 660Ti with the 7950, a superior card, having such a similar price.
