I can afford a 670, but I'd rather not spend that much. Ideally, the 560 ti fits perfectly. However, the 660 ti is rumored to be around $299, which is halfway. So, if the performance is there I probably would get that instead.
I can afford pretty much up to $1500. However, I don't want to spend that much since this'll be my first rig. I'd like to keep it as close to $1000 as possible. Basically, once I get over that price point, I eliminate the "luxury" items or downgrade, such as getting a cheaper case, lower wattage PSU (or non-modular), no Blu-Ray drive, smaller SSD, etc...
In all honesty, the graphics card (along with the processor), is the most important part for a gaming pc. It's the one area where it pays to pump in as much money as you can afford to.
Otherwise it's like buying a Porshe and putting in a crappy engine.
I have the 670 and it maxes every game I have thrown at it.
