I am putting together a new(first) pc. I am trying to choose a graphics card for moderate gaming and some video editing and also some 3D editing(I think). Originaly i was going to go with the 670 because of cuda. After thinking it over a little I decided that cuda wasn't that important, even if I am going to use adobe products. I need help deciding if cuda is really that important and which is overall better.

I would get a non-reference 670. i've heard CUDA makes a pretty big diffrence with adobe stuff
edit: see cray, i'm not a total dumbass!
Definetly get a 670. The refrence doesnt matter too much because they are really low wattage, but you are better off with an non refrence one.
If you use adobe products, get an NVIDIA card.
It simply destroys the AMD card in terms of rendering and productivity.
Also, if you can try and get a non-reference card. Blower style cards usually are not efficent when cooling and make a hell of a lot of noise while doing so.
