GeForce GTX 680

Alright, here we have the GeForce GTX 680. Overall a good dark looking card. Let's look at the card from several different viewpoints. The GTX 680 card is quite good looking with the black colored monitor connectors and then that updated cooler.

The card is equipped with the GK104 GPU that harbors the new Kepler architecture we just spoke about. You get the basics like the graphics card, PEG converter cables, manual and a demo and driver CD, though bundles will vary with AIB/AIC partners.

The GeForce GTX 680 will come with two GB of graphics memory, that's definitely enough if you are a hardcore gamer with a monitor resolution of 1920x1200. If you plan to game on triple monitors then later on a 4 GB model should become an option as well, that would definitely help you out in the uber high resolutions and hefty AA combinations.

Here we have the PCB itself is based on a 4-phase power design with two added phases for the memory subsystem thus that's a 4+2 phase design. The card is PCIe gen 3.0 compatible. Going from PCIe Gen 2 to Gen 3 doubles the bandwidth available to the add-on cards installed, from 500 MB/s per lane to 1 GB/s per lane.

The GeForce GTX 680 is a good looking cards and NVIDIA will definitely pimping themselves if you have an chassis with side window :) The card is 26 cm in length by the way.
