Performance: Radeon HD 7950

The HD 7950 comfortably secured our performance slot, pumping only 2fps less than the HD 7970 and GTX 680 while costing substantially less. It also happens to be the best value solution.

Battlefield 3 is quite intensive when running on maximum quality at 2560x1600, with the GTX 680 being the fastest card at only 45fps. Considering the savings involved, the GTX 670 3fps detriment seems like a worthwhile trade, and the GTX 670 is easily the best overall value in this title.

Value: Radeon HD 7950
Again, Modern Warfare 3 failed to utilize the power of current-gen AMD and Nvidia GPUs, but the GTX 670 still gets our vote as the best performance card as it was just a fraction slower than the GTX 680 at 78fps. The HD 7950 shared a similar price versus performance ratio, and it's the best value option with a perfectly playable 66fps.

The HD 7970 matches the pricier GTX 680 in Crysis 2 at 2560x1600, securing both performance and value slots, since we don't consider anything slower than 30fps to be playable.

The GTX 670 presented itself as the best performance card for playing Dragon Age II at 2560x1600 with an average of 37fps, and since everything under the GTX 670 was either too slow or presented a weaker value proposition, it also occupies the second slot.
