I just went through the exact situation about a month ago. I was told to buy the 7850 so I went to the store to get it. I ended up buying the 7870 though. I got home and realized I needed two 6-pin connectors from the PSU, but I only had one. So i took it back and bought the 660 because it only needs one 6-pin connector and only a 450W PSU. I love the 660 now. Runs very quiet, and very cool. As for CLOD its night and day from my 9800GT, game runs around 50-60fps when theres a not to much going on, and only gets down to 35fps over cities and with large bomber formations. Get the 660.
