As I said on our forums: while this is a hard launch (availability when the etailers' staffs update the product pages), don't hesitate if you are thinking of buying one.

I'm thinking they won't last long.

[RSC]

Amazing card. The Asus DCU II version is making my wallet itch.

[AFQ]

damn, amd is now is some real trouble. Those who bought 7950 and 7970s at launch must be crying.

[PatRaceTin]

damn fast!!!

i wish to sell my 6990

[Mungri]

Who needs reviews for this card, just shut your eyes, ignore any 'common sense' and buy buy buy!

Gigabyte Windforce and this KFA2 EX OC are both full length PCBs, lovely premium build quality, and 8+6 pins.

Thinking of asking any questions? No, stop thinking and just buy one (or two / three) now!

[labs23]

I always have a good feeling for this card - well its easier to say it out loud now.

What'dya know, some good things happen. LOL!

[hokiealumnus]

For those that want to snag one, EVGA has them on their site:

Vanilla GTX670
GTX670 Superclocked
GTX670 FTW

There is also a Galaxy card @ TigerDirect: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...312&CatId=7387

They aren't up at Newegg yet that I can find. I've seen some talk of availability at Amazon too.

These things are tiny little beasts.

[Pantsu]

You can already find 7970 for <400€ in Europe, so it's a tough pick between that and the 670. I suppose 670 is the better choice for 1080p and 7970 for higher.

680 is suddenly starting to feel quite overpriced.

[[XC] Synthetickiller]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I find it odd nVidia finally put out a high and extremely high end (670 and 680 respectively, obviously) with the same amount of vram. It seems that the 670 is not even a neutered 680, it's just a slightly younger brother that easily holds his own.

I wonder how gtx 480/580 sales would have changed if the 470/570 had the same vram as the others (yes, I know there's a 2.5gb 570).

Unless you're benching, I see almost no reason to get a 680 unless you need the 4gb version (and that extra 2gb has yet to be needed, unless there's a review of it w/ 5760x1200 out somewhere).

[Mech0z]

Anyone seen a version that has short PCB and short cooler? (For miniITX builds)

[Mungri]

No but there are small aftermarket coolers already planned for the reference. I already had a pair of Zalman VF950s lying around that are better than the reference cooler, but I cant tell if they would fit now as the KFA2 EX OC was just £30 more, and well worth it to me. I was originally thinking of getting a reference card and putting on a Zalman cooler, but at £30 more I'd rather have the beastly KFA2 or Gigabyte Windforce.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I find it odd nVidia finally put out a high and extremely high end (670 and 680 respectively, obviously) with the same amount of vram. It seems that the 670 is not even a neutered 680, it's just a slightly younger brother that easily holds his own.

Also when the cards firs appeared, this 4 Gb EVGA version was initially priced at £361 (Ithink they made an error and thought it was 2 Gb), then it went up to £399, and now £419.

So for around the same price as a referrence GTX 680, you can have a 4 Gb GTX 670.

Like it or not, the GTX 670 still produces a good amount of heat. A short cooler necessitates an axial fan design which in turn would dump that heat into your case. IMO, that's not something I would want in a small ITX case....

[Mungri]

And like it or not, for the 'good amount of heat' that the GTX 670 produces, the reference cooler is a piece of garbage for anyone wanting the best overclocks:

Theres nothing recommendable or good about this garbage stock cooler at all.

I totally agree with that. I would call it "sufficient" but then again, that's why most manufacturers went with custom designs.

Nice ...

[kaktus1907]

availability kinda sucks

[Mungri]

They dont have any KFA2s pictured in that castle .. I mean, pyramid either, and maybe dont have some of their others. But then no one else in the UK got that much stock, the second largest E tailer only has 4 different cards available:

Aria only have the palit refference, and dabs had nothing.

[GoldenTiger]

Ok, that castle errrr I mean pyramid, is awesome!

Will properly get a 660 anyway, 670 is too expensive for me (Unless I get the student programming job I am going to interview for tomorrow )

honestly WTF..... any chance I could get one of those in my basement?

on topic.... this card looks amazing... really nice to see that Nvidia decided to keep the full VRAM on the card as it makes multi GPU and high res setups very appealing...

[hokiealumnus]

Newegg's selection is up!
