670 is better than 7950, 7950 competes with the 660 ti, you would be best to choose 670 since it draws less power than th power hungr 7970

We didn't try yet, it shew through any game we play such as Crysis 3, Tombraider and Hitman Absolution even the the old games, BMAC, BMAA and BF3 all are smooth like silk so I guess when we meet a glitch we will try yo OC it and GD will be the first to know the results.
