I see price drops for the 7950 but not the 7970

If AMD are dropping their prices though the 660 and 670 must be coming soon

They have 3 7970's that are £395 HIS, MSI and Club3D and the Sapphire OC card for £399 http://www.overclock...sortby=priceAsc
Yes, would think the other 6** cards are imminent.

If the 670's can be flashed with the 680 bios for 680's clocks, assuming Nvidia don't nerf the cpu somehow, it could be an amazing bargain. I think they'll still be more than £300 though, around £330-360 for starters.
Fair point. I guess it just depends on your preferences & opinions. I mean personally I'd rather pick myself up a 7950 for that price range. (At this time of the year anyway, as they have/will have slightly more ironed out drivers than the new 670 for example, afaik)
However if, like you say, they can be flashed to 680 clocks, I can see the potential in the future for the ... 670 for example.

Sounds like there could be another price drop (and maybe a permanent one driven by AMD) coming over the next few days.

Looking like a $55-60 drop in 79xx
78xx are selling too well it seems for a price drop.
77xx might see a minor price drop (less than $15)
Overclockers, who already have some of the cheapest 79xx prices out there have said they expect them to drop back down to the £299/360 prices.
Hands of the HIS 7950, I want one! Imo there is no point getting a 7970/680 unless the prices close on the 7950...neither of them are 20% better than a 7950.

Just in time, might benefit nicely from this as my build is still about two weeks away!
