Thanks!
 
Everything is perfect! :)
 
Hmm.. I just want it to be perfect!
 
Change the 670 to a ftw edition they're the same price but use a 680 pcb.
 
okay thank you!
 
Yes as stated above it will run cooler because it is longer than a stock 670. That is the pcb is this means that there is better wiring due to less cluster the card over all is the same length and for the same price might as get the better one and have a factory oc for Mac. Good luck with what you got.
