EVGA GeForce GTX 690

The product reviewed today originates from EVGA it is a 100% reference model though. Let's start off with packaging. Simple, dark, we like that.

once opened up the GTX 690 appears. The all to familiar card is 11-inches long, that's give or take 28cm in the metric system. Though not the longest card in the book, please do make sure you have plenty of space inside your chassis. There is no EVGA branding on the product whatsoever.

Included in the bundle are the card, the regulars like converters manual, driver CD but also two 6-pin to 8-pin power headers. Nicely sleeved in red which looks great if you use them. Included as well is a posted, which we used to photograph on.

Where the GeForce GTX 680 has a 1006MHz Base Clock and 1058MHz Boost Clock the GeForce GTX 690 clocks in at 915 / 1019Mhz speeds.

If we rotate the card a tiny bit we can see one SLI connector, yup -- that means two cards for quad-SLI GPU mode is supported. With the card already having two GPUs you thus can literally activate four GPUs. NVIDIA however has never really recommended and actively supported quad-SLI. But for a handful of benchmarks and sheer e-peen, it will work fine.
