woa! nice. Those figures seem pretty accurate. I was expecting it to be roughly around there but a little better. Maybe it's too early, let's see what the other benchs look like in the near future.

a bit disappointing there. Only 35% faster than GTX 580.

actually the heaven benchmark is weird though. GTX 580 there scored 34 fps. GTX 680 scored 46.5 fps. My GTX 480 2-way SLI scored 73 fps using the same settings. So if I use a single GTX 480, my score would have been about half of it, which is 36 fps (already more than GTX 580 LOL). And my CPU is only i7 950 @3.8 GHZ. That benchmark used i7 3960X!!! Note: If the rumor is true about GTX 660 with 2 GB VRAM, then buying 2 of these would have been a better choice than a single GTX 680 with the same VRAM.

i wonder how well this overclocks. we all know the 7970 overclocks pretty high off the stock clocks. I wonder how close they are to each other once maxed out.

I already know my system and gpu at stock trashed it in the heaven benchmark, 3dmark 11 it only beat my score by a bit, overclocked my system beat it hands down, but im sure if it got oced it would prob beat my score only due to only being able to oc/up voltage so much. Against 2x 580's though a 680 is not as fast as the two cards. Looks to be the 9 series all over again. AMD didnt have much go against the top end real kepler card so to save $$$ on production, along with maxiumum profits NVIDIA is releasing the slowest Keplerthat beats AMD's top card and marking it as the GTX 680... Of course they going to charge a premium for it.

Looks like it's time to replace my 2 480s.
Is there going to be a 680 Hydro Copper 3 or something like that?

your 2 480s will probably out perform the 680 GTX.. unless your planning on getting 2.

Based on the leak benchmarks, I think GTX 680 is around 60% faster than GTX 480. So yeah literally 2-way SLI GTX 480 is still faster, but some games still don't have good SLI performance. Plus a 500 MB VRAM is a bonus, but it's still not enough. 2 GB is just...lame! ehau

I think there will be. $650 - $700 price for sure.

If you don't run several monitors, 2GB is plenty. You could always purchase a 7970 or wait for a partner card with more VRAM. Do you run a multi monitor gaming setup?

Are you asking me, bhk1004, or ehau? For me, I don't have multi monitor gaming setup. But I still think 2 GB is small for $550 next gen card. I mean, this is the card that we'll be using until the next-next generation card is available (maxwell, probably 2014).

Well, I was asking you after your comment of 2GB being lame. I just can't see someone who games at 19x10 needing more than 2GB of video memory. Now, if you game on 3, it's a different story.

Wonder if those claims that the GTX 680 were right about it being 45% faster than the *cough*HD 7970*cough* that I've been eyeing for the better part of the last two months or so. Don't worry, I plan to be loyal to EVGA, and go back to nVidia graphics. AMD graphics were nice when Windows 7 first launched, but right now... It's about time I went back to being a GeForce Junkie again.

You're gonna have to wait until 2014. There will be a delay for GTX 700 series. Guaranteed! 3 - 6 months just like usual. Your 3x GTX 580 will not last that long due to VRAM limitation. Unless u have 3 GB version.
