I know what you mean. I have a X6 1090T overclocked to 4.2GHz and I feel like it's holding my GTX680 back. Intel just released their new Haswell chips so I might go out and buy one. Or buy an older 3770K. I don't know yet.
Also, your GTX 460 can be used as a dedicated PhysX card. I'm sure your 700W PSU can power both.

Thanks guys! This card is awesome. I've bumped Tomb Raider from Ultra to Ultimate and it's running smooth as butter. I did a Havens Benchmark test with both cards and went from 15-20 fps on the GTX460 to 30-40 fps on the GTX660.
I don't think I can run (fit) a second card. From other reviews my budget mobo has it's PCI Express 2.0 slots too close to each other. I knew this upfront so no biggie!
