Yup, no specs.
 
Love the casing design and all metal housing, but not much in the way of specs. I foresee 680 GPUs with either some cores disabled or underclocked. Most likely two 680s will still smoke it.
 
But the funniest part was a ding it makes when it powers on. WTHeck?

Any specs yet?  The card physically looks very nice, but just wondering the tech inside.  Are the GPU's handicapped like they were in the 590 or are we getting 2 full force 680's in one card?

Specs up on http://www.anandtech.com/show/5795/nvidia-unveils-geforce-gtx-690-dual-gk104-flagship-launching-may-3rd. Looks like its just shy of 2 actual 680s (915MHz vs 1006).

Looks like they finally priced a dual gpu where they wanted. How many of you guys are gonna shell out a grand for this thing?

I doubt it
Since the 680 was supposedly originally the 660
And we all know that dual GPUs are made from the mid-range GPU line

I want to load up a PC with these just so it goes DING DING DING DING!

 
Reminds me of some of my old scsi arrays with the HUGE hdd's in them. 
 
The hdds would spin up and ding when they were at proper speed.

Well, they went all out on the rest of it, anyone wanna bet they skimp on the memory and it still only has 2gb per gpu?

That's a sucker bet.  Card will be touted as having "4GB" Vram even though they really mean 2;)

No way in heck I'm touching that card.  Would rather have 2 x 680 4GB for a tad bit more.

Now that was funny, they asked if anyone has heard of Crysis and you could hear crickets in the audience. Taking bets most of the audience was wondering what these fools speaking English in China were saying. The GTX690 has an interesting fan shroud at least.

I guess Nvidia figured if people would pay 1k for ASUS special cards then people would pay the same for their vanilla cards

All I wanna know out of all of this crap they just spewed is where can I find an sli bridge like in the pics at anandtech that thing looks THOUSANDS times better than the ones with the thru hole solder points showing.

Ok, so an hour of stuff that we already knew about, then the GTX 690 announcement.  Oh well, it's not like I had anything better to do tonight.

The shroud is made from aluminum and magnesium, doubt it would weigh that much.
