Been waiting for this, shows the fans of the 7970 TOXIC what NVIDIA can do
Great review thanks. Great to see that you've picked up on the graphs and times per frames that people had asked for. I loved the 'Table of Doom' and the new info. Congrats.
Interestingly, despite the rather odd fanboy above, this actually makes the 7970 a more attractive prospect rather than less. I can have a 7970 that beats even this giant in some games for nearly 40% less of my hard earned.
Admittedly, if I was building this week, I'd get a 680, just not this one. At this price it looks plain silly.
Society's to blame,
Or possibly Atari.

thanks we have buy-links coming up!
I'd say that £492 constituted £500 territory.

Just goes to show that the 2GB on the standard 670/680s is plenty for triple 1080p gaming.
Don't know why you dropped the last gen cards from the benchmarks, cards like the GTX580/570 and 6970. A lot of people own these cards and looking at you reviews gives them no indication of how much faster these newer cards are and therefore no clue if it's a worthy upgrade.
AMD and NVIDIA change drivers at an alarming rate, often providing an extra '40 per cent' in key titles with a new iteration of Catalyst and ForceWare. We try to pit graphics cards against their immediate competition, showing you just how they compare on the latest, or near-latest, drivers.
This review drills down on the per-second and per-frame performance, examining whether the 4GB framebuffer makes sense on a GTX 680 and on three screens.
You can find a fuller comparison of the GTX 680 OC against a bevy of other cards in a recent review of the Gigabyte GTX 680 OC - http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphi...-rides/?page=3
