I play at 2560x1440.
Would I notice big difference swapping my GTX580 to GTX670?
I know there were threads like this before, but most of them were talking about 1080p gaming.
How does it look at higher res?
Anyone made this jump?

To some degree, my answer to your i5 750 vs. 2500K question could apply here.
The outcome would depend on the game. However, the faster clocks and presumably larger memory could let the 670 shine, allowing more demanding settings, additional filtering and giving a higher frame rate - depending on the game. The higher resolution would potentially highlight any gap between the two cards.
Yes yes oh god yes
I just upgraded from sli 580's to sli 670's and gained about 30% performance in pretty much everything
I could/would never go back
I do have the evga ftw cards tho
Highly recommended as an upgrade, the 680 however only gives 2-3 % over a 670
Cool, now its matter of selling 580 for a good price and getting new 670.
Which brand do you have? EVGA FTW? I would go for some cheapest one, I see EVGA standard one is good deal nowadays...

I would say not.
I looked at this and went 670 SLI to get enough gains to feel dramatically different. It's was either dual 580's or dual 670's for me and I choose the latter because i'm bonkers.
I would wait for the next gen if you're not going SLI.
[shameless plug about having a 580 for sale soon here]
I would check benchmarks....at 2560x1440 the bandwidth of a 670 is going to be super-exposed

Not sure it'd be a big enough difference to be honest, as always could be more noticeable dependent on what you play:

The GTX 580 is a perfectly capable card and while the GTX 670 is great, I would be tempted to hang on to the 580 for now.
Still looks like 2-30% advantage over 580.
I wish I could sell it for £200 and buy used 670 for £250.
£50 premium is worth it I guess.
Plus when you look on those charts, playing game on 580 takes 100W more than 670 !
That is a lot of power there going to the bin!

It`s to late in the year to be upgrading graphic cards wait until after the run up to christmas / new year. better prices and more info on what the next Gen of cards will have on offer.

You might see AMD release the HD8000 series after christmas too,and maybe even Nvidia will release the GK110?
Hopefully prices will go down but Nvidia has been complaining 28NM is expensive again:

I hope Nvidia GK110 core come`s out on a gamer`s card, the performance would really be game-changing where has the GK104 Kepler seems like a stepping stone.
