Hope so... would take some of the sting out of likely not getting my 2x eVGA 680's until Monday since they didn't ship last night .

Yep. I ordered them last night from newegg at around 7:30pm Eastern when they were available for a couple of minutes. 2-day shipping means unfortunately I likely won't receive them until Monday at this point, though, with shipment today.

EDIT: Wow, I'm liking the sound of the adaptive vsync feature!

I quess its fair to say that its 1:1 now.

Perfomance 1920 or above is slightly better.
Total power consumption on average is pretty much identical. (+3W to GTX680)
Perfomance per watt is slightly better also on high resolutions.

AMD will keep up if they drop their price just some cents below this newborn green.

this is a really strange card very very strange results. i dont know i am giving it to the premature drivers but they say it is not fundamentally different fermi so. numbers are so strange.

AMD was beaten at their own game Price, Performance & power!!

Good luck AMD, in finding someone to buy your overpriced GPUs now. I'm glad i waited.

I guess this was done by this guy.

6,739 words later... I'm done.

You guys can read my review soon. :P

[kromosto]

ahahaha it is branded little more then 1000 usd here. it is just for the start but this means it wont go under 750 usd for a long time

[Vardant]

Order it somewhere else? It's around $575 here in Europe.

[kromosto]

i will in germany in may maybe i grab it from there

[kromosto]

it is expensive here right now from 590 and 6990

Newegg dropped the price on the 680's I ordered by $10/ea (20 total)... thankfully they have agreed to give me the price difference as a gift card . Relatively small difference given the overall cost of these, but hey, $20 is $20 especially since they hadn't shipped yet even.

I just submitted my order in newegg, 2x EVGA GeForce GTX 680 2GB, over night shipping

Cant wait to play with these cards

Really? I didn't get that impression at all. In my tests, the GTX 680 wins handily (on average) at every resolution and only looses in a few situations. Minimum framerates are much better as well.

5-10 percent give or take not a game changer thats for sure

by the way why nobody compared oced 7970 with oced 680 ? seems weird to me

From a purely performance standpoint, it was never meant to be a game changer.

Where it changes the game is price for performance of a flagship product. If NVIDIA had continued the trend set by themselves and AMD for years now, the GTX 680 would have been $600+, regardless of the core's GK104 code name.

bought mine from the egg, got a promo for free shipping and they were out of asus, so i picked up the zotac one which looks like it comes with free assassins creed games (which i dont own)

[Mad1723]

Well, here we go. My 5870 goes to retirement, my GTX680 is ordered and should be here monday (friday if I'm very lucky!). BF3 will be ran at max res and will be enjoyed as such! :P
