GeForce GTX 680 is a high-end Graphics Card based on the 28nm, Kepler architecture.
The Kepler architecture allows more SPUs but the Fermi SPUs (used on the 400 & 500 Series) are clocked twice as fast as the Kepler architecture. Therefore, don't let the large amount of Pipelines fool you, as the 1536 Pipelines are equivalent to 768 Pipelines, of the Fermi architecture.
GeForce GTX 680 features a 1006Mhz core-clock that can automatically set itself to 1058Mhz using a technology similar to the one used on Intel GPUs. Another huge surprise is the TDP that went from 244 Watts, to just 195 Watts, as two SPUs of the Kepler architecture consume 10% less power. However, the amount was doubled and so the power save is not as high as it could have been.
GeForce GTX 680 was the fastest single GPU of the world until Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition was released.
All games will run on the maximum settings smoothly.

mine?
GTX 1060 vs GTX 680 ??
Not even a fair comparison. GTX 1060 exceeds 680 in every way except for used market availability.
Gtx 1060 is about 60% faster.
May be you can gtx 1060 vs gtx 680 sli
in my recent researchs, most of the sites said that the 2GB frame buffer does an enormous performance bottleneck in this GPU (for 1080P and beyond) and this is the reason for its poor performance on recent games against lower-end radeons (with 3-4GB) or even the 4GB 960.
dont think its only factor there is also dated architecture its strong gpu when you look specs but nvidia cripled this card also they dumped support for kepler architecture.
This is why i took 280X instead.
this or R9 380?
i think you should buy a gtx 680
i took the 280X, soon i will update GD Rig.
can i use this gpu with my current cpu?
thanks in advance
yup. no problems here.
Yes. You can even crossfire them no problem at all.
lol 2% better
33% better :p
gtx 680 is better then gtx 770 ? haha :D i really hope you are tweaking these numbers again…
Came out for over 2 years ago - still a beast card.
For now, his brother, GeForce GTX 770 is better … :D
Yes, but the 770 didn't come out for two years ago…
Yuhu … :D
There was hardly any change in gfx last 2 years so yeah it still beast
Is buying one of these for £200 refurbished a good deal. I getting a new rig and i cant decide on a gpu.
Not really, my GTX 770 new was £229, plus it's a better card. From pixmania.co.uk
4% better, not bad :D
298% worse, not bad :D
300% worse here, really bad, actually … :D
No diff with my card? It says 0% diff :/
