The GTX660Ti has dropped in price relative to the other cards as a direct result of the GTX760 arriving, and lots of misleading reviews of highly overclocked 760's against last years reference 660Ti's (915MHz). I could now buy a GTX660Ti for ~£180. 5 weeks ago it was £220. While some 760's have fallen from ~£210 to just under £200, many are still as expensive as their initial release price. The GTX650TiBoost's price has now equilibriated, but the GTX660 prices haven't changed much recently. In the UK the GTX660Ti is now on power with the GTX660 in terms of performance per purchase cost. As it's the bigger, faster card it's a better buy if you have a limited number of systems/PCIE slots. In terms of performance/overall system power it's also the winner. The GTX670 has come down a bit, but it's still too expensive compared to the GTX660Ti. This is due to it's position between a GTX660Ti/GTX760 and a GTX680/770. Of course IT hardware prices change quickly and vary by location. FAQ's HOW TO: - Opt out of Beta Tests - Ask for Help |

I checked pricegrabber.com with a setting for the US (I don't think I have to check all the other American countries as well) and the prices were indeed pretty much the same: 242$ for GTX660Ti and 249$ for GTX760. What a pity! MrS Scanning for our furry friends since Jan 2002 |

The GTX660Ti is 14% cheaper in the US than in the UK, but the GTX760 is 20% cheaper in the US. It's a pity they both weren't cheaper here. Location, Location, Location... |

I did a few times in the past and when the parcel is not to large and heavy, customs don't intervene...Or let someone bring it with him/her on a flight. That is allowed tax free to a rather large amount. Greetings from TJ |
