Please get the GDDR5 version of the HD 6670 . It will give you more Bandwidth than the DDR3.

Thanks guys.

Can you suggest me any shops or online sites where I could get it in a reasonable price for both the DDR3 and DDR5 versions.

You can tell me if you have any stores near your home also if you think they would give a better price.
