First off, hello everyone.
Secondly, I have $450 available for an immediate upgrade to my comp. I know I definitely want to upgrade my video card and I want an SSD, though it isn't as important as the GPU. I am an avid gamer, but I also shoot and edit HD video for a living. I know I want an nVidia card because of the Mercury Playback Engine compatibility in Adobe CS6. I mainly game (as much as my GPU will let me) at 1920x1080 60Hz. I have a slew of current-gen games that i cannot play with either decent visuals or frame rates (or at all) because of the GPU.
So here's my question: Should I spend most of the $450 and get a nice GTX 670 or should I get a GTX 660ti and a good 128GB SSD (or a 256GB if I catch a great deal)?
Any help and opinions on the matter would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to being a part of the TweakTown community. Thanks!

P.S. Mods, please move to the 'What Should I Buy' section. I apologize for missing that sub-thread.
