Grapevine grew quite rapidly overnight! Kepler launch expected March 23rd with official details from nVidia on March 15th. Either 680 or 670... Edit: Glad they help John! Was a bit worried of all the colour pollution but what can I do? I'm a sucker for stats/numbers:D |

If Kepler performs as well as the previews would have us believe, they probably won't be able to give away the rest of their 5xx series cards. I anticipate another major price slash after the 6xx cards are released. |

GeForce Kepler GK110 basic specs leaked I'm not sure you can use SLI and TFLOPs in the same sentence though:) Oh! We should have an official Kepler launch in less than 48hrs!

Nvidia I see is going to make installing or removing the pci-e power cables like on the 1st revision GTX295, hard to install or remove as the cables will be facing each other, instead of like on the GTX590... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Kepler is here! http://www.anandtech.com/show/5699/nvidia-geforce-gtx-680-review Edit: It really is a 560Ti die-shrink:( Official page: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680/specifications http://www.nvidia.com/object/graphics_cards_buy_now.html http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/graphics_cards_buy_now_uk.html Also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Nvidia_graphics_processing_units#GeForce_600_Series Well at least it really is rated @3.1TFLOPs http://techreport.com/articles.x/22653/7 (page 7 of 15) ...which means double the compute power per Watt |

Here's a review of what's important to us: Compute performance. Looks like double-precision has gotten *no* love: http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2012/3/22/nvidia-gtx-680-reviewed-a-new-hope.aspx?pageid=4 Edit: also, newegg appears to be out of stock already. |

Mobile Kepler: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Nvidia-announces-Kepler-architecture-and-new-laptop-graphics-cards.72170.0.html http://www.anandtech.com/show/5697/nvidias-geforce-600m-series-keplers-and-fermis-and-die-shrinks-oh-my Careful now, this isn't a straightforward launch. The 600 series for mobile consists of both Fermi & Kepler, both 40nm & 28nm. It's a mess really. I'm starting to believe the 600 series (both desktop and mobile) is gonna have a very short shelf-life... But then again you know what Inspector Callahan says about opinions! |

Guru of 3D posted their review of the GTX680 today: http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-680-review/ EVGA has it listed as: [url]http://www.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=02G-P4-2680-KR&family=GeForce 600 Series Family&sw=[/url] There is also a new Precision tool from EVGA called EVGA Precision X that's geared specifically toward the 680 (ver 3.0.1), but is backward compatible thru the 200 series. This will be the new look of tool as there will no be further upgrades to the legacy version of the tool. I don't buy computers, I build them!! |

The comments didn't speak too highly of the 480's. Heck, with some water cooling, and a huge overclock, they can hold their own.....:D Steve Warning, addicted to SETI crunching! Crunching as a member of GPU Users Group. GPUUG Website |

I have been waiting for the 79xx price`s to fall after nvidia`s 6xx came out, As it says in the article they have taken their time about it, They have to cash in on it if sale`s are good. |
