The new cards will be out within the next 2 weeks, here's a screenshot to give an idea of the different major brands, prices, etc. on the new 680 gtx's.




When these launch, I will be PMing and e-mailing everyone with guild links, so if you planned on buying, we get some credit.

Remember the far more efficient 660gtx will also be the next big seller, coming in at around 250-300 dollars. If your wanting to max GW2 in WvW with 100+ players on screen, you're going to want one of these. (assuming you have a decent quad-cpu).


Be excited!

When will this be released? The same time as the 680?

680's already launched, as for 660 it will be available starting in early-mid april for asia, NA should be around the same period I think.

680s are sold out T_T

No worries, you can always wait for 690 :DD

OMFGBBQ Look at that thanggggg http://www.techpower...-Treatment.html

Wonder how this compares to my ATI 5970...

[Fatalis]

Gonna be waiting out for a 660 or a 670, a 680's too extreme for me.

Just a rough estimation for performance.

Goddamn it scored a lot lower than I anticipated... It's still more than enough to run GW's 2 maxed (and then some), but still... I think I'll giver an upgrade next year. Thanks for the link.

[Guinsoona]

It's not a very accurate list but it gives you the rough idea of the performance. Cheers

Guess what!!!!

I will wait for that cooling system to be avail and then buy it

These cards look sweet, but they are way out of my price range. I'm still using an ATI Radeon HD 4800 series card. I need to get a new card sometime, but I think I'll hold off getting one till next year. Most of the games I play I can run at max or high settings still anyways.

I'm excited. I hope the prices come down a little and they get more in stock before GW2.

Notice the 580 out scores the 680?

I worry about pass mark sometimes. It is good for a price/performance reality check though.
