Summary

Reasons to consider Radeon HD 8670D IGP

70 watts lower power draw. This might be a strong point if your current power supply is not enough to handle the GeForce GTX 670 .
This is a much newer product, it might have better long term support.
Based on an outdated architecture (ATI TeraScale), there are no performance optimizations for current games and applications

Reasons to consider GeForce GTX 670

Higher theoretical gaming performance, based on specifications.
Supports PhysX
Supports G-Sync
Supports ShadowPlay (allows game streaming/recording with minimum performance penalty)
Based on an outdated architecture (Nvidia Kepler), there are less performance optimizations for current games and applications

GeForce GTX 670

HWBench recommends GeForce GTX 670

Based on theoretical specifications.
