Wait for the GTX 660, or get a GTX 570?

so i am more or less at the end of upgrading my rig and im stuck on what graphics card to get.

the cards that fit in the performance and price bracket are the GTX 570 and the GTX 660 (hopefully).
im wondering what other peoples views are on this matter, do you feel then 570 is effective enough or do you think the 660 will be allot more?

post your opinions or what you feel will be better to get out of the 2 please.

Go with the GTX 660. The GPU is newer, more efficient, less power and more towards the future. The difference in gameplay may not be that much, but i think the 660 will give a better buck&power -> performance than the 570.

i was thinking that, i know the price wont be over £300 and it should outperform the 7950 and possibly the 7970 if it is following what the other 600 series cards have been doing.

iv been considering gtx 670, but its going to take me to sept-aug time to save for the thing so i might aswell get the 660 if it runs well enough for the cost
