    While I am sure we can find a 670m that overheated... it isn't every one and you know it.
    Yes, the one guy who never cleaned his vents overheated... then again, that would have happened to even a 650m/660m with the mess of junk that was clogging his vents.

    The MSI GT series has had perfectly working 570m's for a long time. (the flashed 570m's are essentially 670m's)

    The 670m is a superior chip even by nvidia's stats. You need to stop confusing the "thin and light" chipsets for the "performance/enthusiast" ones.

    There is nothing wrong with a 650m/660m, indeed I am considering one for myself at this time... but just stop with the fanboi misiniformation.

    It really doesn't matter in the end if the kepler chips take more power as the only time they do is when gaming... when you will be plugged in anyway.

    While the 650m scores much better on synthetic benchmarks, I'd just like to report that both max out StarCraft 2 at 1920 x 1080 at the same framerate, ~40 fps, as tested on my Envy and as checked on notebookcheck.

    Yes, SC2 is mainly a CPU-intensive game, but I found that at least a little bit interesting.

    EDIT: comparing stock clocks on both.
