sounds good. i will take into consideration. leadtek gtx670... is it reliable? to say, last...3 years at least. why is it the gigabyte gtx670 more expensive than leadtek gtx670? by around rm300... must be something better or just brand?

Yes it is. It has a warranty of 3 years too.
Gigabyte is more expensive than Leadtek because it has a better cooling build for overclocking.
Besides it gives lower noise level too.
