EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Classified 4GB with EVBOT review
We'll test the EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Classified today. A product that is 100% customized from PCB to cooling. Software voltage regulation works, but obviously as well is limited to that 1.175V. EVGA however does have an alternative for the Classified model as tested today, you can hook up a small piece of hardware to it called EVBot, which controls the voltages directly at hardware level, and thus bypassing the NVAPI software limitation.
Hi-hoo 1400 MHz, here we come ! Read the review right here.

The afterburner GPU core clock was up and down and all over the shop when the OC gadget was used, how about some stability?, nvidia, is overclocking our cards a no-no now?, GPU noob-boost? Uhh, i hate the 600 series and the route nvidia is going down these days.
Anyways yeah, these models with the bigger vram capacity are the real 680s IMO, i agree with folks in general that the vanilla 680 is nothing more than a 670 ti -same vram capacity too lol.
*folks i'm not a amd troll, never had an amd card ever, just very dissapointed consumer.

cost alot of money to get voltage with this card,two more bills you can have a 690 or for same you can get a pair of 670's.
EVGA once again too little for too much,seems like they went have as3ed about it.
55% fan speed max? 1.35v all done? There is throttle,you kidding? really why bother evga.

This time around, the AIBs are in the clear. You can thank Nvidia for adding in the power limiter on these cards.

Has Nvidia responded why they are so keen to keep OC/OV/Power Target within certain limit?
Even on AIB custom cards...
