Hi, i've been thinking about upgrading my gpu from what i've got which is a 560ti, was thinking about buying a gtx 670 in the next few months and was wondering if it would work with my motherboard and cpu ok? my motherboard is asus P8Z68-V LX with intel i5 2500 non 'k' version as i don't overclock. Any help would be appreciated thanks

What PSU do you have? The motherboard or CPU wouldn't be a problem, the gtx 670 should run fine as long as you have a suitable PSU.

i've seen the jet stream gtx 670 from palit which look decent, do PCS sell this card or just the reference graphic card from palit?

I can recommend the palit jetstreams highly :D , i have 2 x 680s (4gb) , awesome cards (they are bigger than most cards though , at least the 680 variants are)

I have looked at the GTX 680, however i think it's out my budget and have looked at reviews and there does'nt seem to be a great deal of peformance between the two.

If you go for the GTX680 jetstream you can have 4 gb of v-ram , not sure if you can get 4gb on a 670 (maybe) :D

There are gtx 670 4gb. The gtx 670 2gb jetstream, as Baron suggested, are a good choice. It would give you a slightly better performance than the reference card.
