Brilliant! With the amount of wtfpwnage rumours im beginning to think that Nvidia have a flop ready .

If those specs are right then the 690 is simply two 670's, seems a bit silly as this time they shouldnt be held back by the TDP like last time . I like the performance comparisons in the second chart, 45% better than the 7970, it will interesting because the fact is the 7970 has so much untapped speed available, at 1100mhz core it increases performance insanely, i think thats why AMD havent released with high clocks, they are using this time to test the waters and see how to improve the process while Nvidia is taking their time to release kepler because by then if the 680 is better than the 7970 then AMD will simply launch 1100mhz+ core clocked 7970's and that would be the end of it .

One thing that seems baffling is the memory, sure the 690 is using the 670 but surely Nvidia should know that the raw power from two would benefit from a wider bus? I have a feeling its going to be a mars type price card!.

A lot of hype for these hopefully not too much to make it a bulldozer disappointment.

SLI 680s yes please
