I picked up the EVGA GeForce GTX 660 today, and got to testing. This is a brand new model, just released by Nvidia, and the card does not work as well as the other Kepler cards. In order to work, you must install the separate NVIDIA drivers from their site. I wasn't able to get to the desktop without the NVIDIA drivers and as with other Kepler cards, you must use GraphicsEnabler=No.
But the good news is, that OpenCL works without any patches! And the performance for the price is really good!
