ASUS GeForce GTX 760 MARS review
Ah yeah .. join us as we review and benchmark the ASUS GeForce GTX 760 MARS. Now you'd think this is a beefed up GTX 760, but the secret sauce really is that it has two 760 GPUs. Yup, the ASUS GeForce GTX 760 MARS has been locked and loaded with two GPUs on a single PCB. That also means a customized PCB and an all new cooler. We have lots to talk about and to show of course, as we'll check the card out with our regular benchmarks, Ultra HD testing, FLIR thermal imaging and a handful of FCAT frametime results as well. Bring it on - Game on !

$300 per card is high. I can find GTX670's all day long for less than $400
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007709%20600311820&IsNodeId=1
MSI GTX670 PE goes for $269.99 full price, currently on sale for $249.99
Asus GTX670 DC2 is $299.99 full price.
Gigabyte GTX670 WF2 is $329.99 full price.
If you don't mind "open box" or "refurb" you can get as low as $230 rather easily for an eVGA GTX670 FTW...
Those are prices that "average Joe" will find by "surfin the net"....and they're quite a bit below $450.
GTX760 only goes for $250 to $320. So, anything over $500 isn't worth it.
If you want SLI and have space limitations, it's not a bad option for $450-500....at any price higher than that though, it's a rip off.
On average the prices are pretty close to each other after you convert the exchange rate. Sure ,you can always find cheaper deals locally in some mum and pop shop but the average Joe surfin the net for prices will be hard pressed finding brand new $450 VGA card for 3 bills...

i cant imagine preferring this card over any other option in the $500 price range

Just to keep you honest:
http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_1200_557_559&item_id=049483
Even months after release your card retails for: $449 CAD before mail in rebate. Multiply that x 2 for SLI and you're looking at $889.00 CAD
You are hardly one to talk about a card costing too much money!!
You're pretty annoying to be honest. You throw out wrong information, get corrected, then shift to something else that is completely unrelated.
My cards cost $440 each without shipping to my country. So I personally think the R9-290 at $400 is too underpriced /sarcasm

Not to mention that the cheaper 760's are reference designs. The $250 670's all have solid non-reference cooling solutions.

The cooler on the GTX670 PE from MSI is a very good cooler and at a great price.

MSI 670 $249.99
I'd also like to point out how you cherry picked the 670 on the Canada Computers website. There's 670's for over $100 less on than the one you linked. You seriously need to stop posting nonsense, it's getting beyond a joke. We all know you love your 760, but it isn't always the best option for the price range.
