I think I have one:

Look at the difference between the two GPUs in terms of
Stream processors: 2048 vs 512
Texture Units: 128 vs 64
Texture Fillrate: 118.4 Gtex/s vs 49.4 Gtex/s
Memory Bandwidth: 264 GB/s vs 192.4 GB/s

Except for the Memory Bandwith, the 7970is more than 100% percent powerfull than the 580GTX.



I admit, I started showing signs of weakness....I was holding one 7970 in my hands today...

Hold on brother, the wait is coming to an end....Hurry up Nvidia!

ROFL Editor, nice one!

I am afraid the NV cards we need are the models planned for August (the GK110 core), not the GK104 core NV will introduce now.


@Flanker: How is the noice of the 7970? I see that this was a point of misery in the tests...

S!

I find the 7970D quite quiet. It idles at around 30'C and under load seen figures like 60-75'C. The fan has not gone near 50% ever. I play with headphones so can not hear the computer next to me anyway.

Is the 680 released this month a Gk104 or Gk110 and if not which ones are earmarked to be Gk110

Apparently, this month is a GK104 and the GK110 is expected after August.

Ok I know it is all speculation but I have read in a few places that the 680 is a gk110 and it might be out in February
