    Unless you physically don't have any more money, then get a 670, the 660ti in my opinion is not worth it but thats just me. Also try and get hold of a modular PSU, non-modular is just a road to spaghetti junction at the bottom of your case.

    EDIT: Seems the name your PSU can be modular and non-modular, so disregard the last part as the one you have selected is

    The PSU is a Corsair AX 650W, can't get much better.

    The 660Ti is a good card, best bang for the buck. 670 IS better... But not for its moneys worth. You're getting about 15% more power for 25% more cost
