Amazingly power efficient. Excellent performance. Reduced profile. Supports four monitors, 3D Vision Surround on one card. Requires only six-pin PCIe power connectors.
Not always appreciably faster than competing AMD card. Blocks an expansion slot. Requires a hefty power supply
Nvidia has introduced some impressive innovations in its new single-GPU flagship card, the GeForce GTX 680. Hard-core PC gamers shouldn't expect down-the-board AMD-crushing frame rates, but reduced power bills are a distinct possibility....
Once again we have reached the end of another GPU launch article and once again we have a lot of data to digest, so let's get to it.For the last few generations AMD has always put up a good fight and always managed to spoil NVIDIA in some manner, be it by...
So much to cover, so little time.There are two sides to the GTX680. On the one hand there is the elements that we can test right now, and will make a difference to the average person, and on the other we have the wealth of features that are an attempt to...
I think it goes without saying that the new GeForce GTX 680 2GB graphics card from NVIDIA really has impressed me in my short time with it. The performance of the new Kepler GPU is astounding as it was able to best the Radeon HD 7970 in the large majorit...
Abstract: For some of us, upgrading our PCs with the best hardware and enjoying the most jaw-dropping games in all their glory is a not-so-distant memory. Even though I've consistently owned beefy rigs my whole life, I've spent less and less time utilizing the...
Is the GTX 680 a HD 7970 killer? The short answer to this is yes, but as with most things a full response would not be as black and white. When it comes down to performance, the GTX 680 is between 10% to 15% faster across the board compared to the HD 7...
We’ve said from the very first time we laid out hands on a 28nm GPU that you’d be foolish to rush into a high-end GPU purchase without waiting to see what the competition had to offer, and boy has it been worth the wait. While not superior in every tes...
16% performance increase over GTX 580, Reasonable price, Massive leap forward in energy efficiency, Dynamic overclocking works well, Good additional OC potential, Native full-size HDMI & DisplayPort output, Adds adaptive VSync and new Anti-Aliasing modes,
Dynamic OC can't be turned off, Manual overclocking more complicated than before, Noisy in 3D, Voltage controller has no software voltage control neither monitoring, No technology similar to AMD's ZeroCore power, 500 MHz max OC and power limit won't work
NVIDIA clearly has a winner on their hands with the GTX 680. The new card, which is based on NVIDIA's GK104 graphics processor, that introduces the Kepler architecture, is a significant leap forward both in terms of performance and GPU technology. Tech...
Great Performance, Relatively Cool and Quiet, GPU Boost, Adaptive VSync, TXAA, 3D Surround From a Single Card
Expensive (Although Priced aggresively), Additional Considerations for Overclockers
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Reference CardThe NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 is full of all kinds on win. Despite using fewer transistors, having a smaller die, and consuming less power, the GeForce GTX 680 is faster than the AMD Radeon HD 7970 overall. The GK104...
