GeForce 680GTX released
 

Seems like it has the edge over the 7970 and has a similar cost.

Let the price wars begin!

Mine got shipped today so i'm getting it tomorrow. Gonna be fun checking out the new features, especially the turbo boost :)

S!

Seems to be a nice card. Would be nice to see benchmarks from simulators and both cards on a PCIe 3.0 specced Ivy Bridge system :) Good to have choices, both cards are strong ones more than adequate for gaming today :)

Ordered one today too but I'll likely not get mine until Monday.

I will put out some numbers from IL2 COD and ArmA 2 w/Ace sometime tomorrow night.

S!

Raggz, please do with settings used! Really waiting for the results! :D

Will do. Just received sms from postal services that my package will be delivered tomorrow afternoon.
I will run tests on IL2 COD, Arma 2 and Red orchestra 2 and i will make a comparison with my current gtx580.

judging from the reviews/bench it's clearly below HD 7990 and a bit under GTX 590.. i'd say it kinda fills the gap between the GTX 580 and GTX 590

Here is a review (sorry, I am reading the German one).

Oh, Trvdi was kind enough to find an English presentation of the card and I admit, his comments about adaptive Vsync technology seem to be good news:

As I had posted last month, this is supposed to be the intermediate card (the real high performance core will appear in August). For this reason it has only 2Gb :(
Despite that, the performance is a big improvement compared to the GTX580

~S~

There is more to this card than all the talk about performance.
Turbo booster which helps removing bottlenecks in the core when it's needed, adaptive v-sync, hardware FXAA and the new TSAA which will be available in upcoming games. It also has a better cooling system. These and the PCI 3.0 support are the main reasons i trade in my beloved gtx 580.

And for a single gpu card to be almost on par with the dual gpu cards available is definitely a good sign :)

Guru3d has released their gtx680 review. Looks good :D
