Kepler Nvidia GeForce GTX 780

Umm,,, that is exactly what i was afraid of. Minimum FPS sucks badly. Lets hope thats the fresh drivers issue and not Nvidias new dynamic OC issue. Avg FPS says nothing. Minimum FPS is what counts.

I doubt it has anything to do with boost, AMD cards take the same min fps hit at the same time in the runs as the Nvidia cards and AMD has no boost to blame it on and if it where drivers is it not strange they both have the same exact issue with the same part of the game causing the fps drop.

Yes, but you are missing the key point here. The cap betweeen GTX 680 max FPS vs min FPS is huge, compared to AMD card. Thats why im thinking that GPU boost is not quick enought to react. Average FPS just makes GTX to look better card, but min FPS tells the different story.

You're kidding right, the average fps "is" what makes the 680 a better card, what percentage of your gameplay do you spend at min fps overall...

Thats wrong again. Min fps above 35 is what makes my gaming experience acceptable. Everything above it is not important since human eye can not tell the difference while using IPS screens like i do. Average fps is completely useless stat for me.

So a card that dips to 20 fps once but is above 40 otherwise is worse than a card that dips to 35 often? You need to do some sort of "average time spent below x fps" analysis to get the true minimum.

Wait for Techreport's review. It'll show 99th percentile frame times, that should paint a fairly accurate picture.
