The GTX 680 versus the HD 7970 is a classic confrontation which began in 2012 that BTR revisited 3 years later.  Codenamed Tahiti, the then new AMD flagship Radeon HD 7970  launched in January, 2012 at $550 and was about 20% faster than NVIDIA’s Fermi flagship, the GTX 580.  The Kepler flagship, the GTX…

The HD 7970 vs. the GTX 680 – revisited 3 years later

The GTX 980 versus the HD 7970 was a classic confrontation that began in 2012 that we are now repeating 3 years later.  Codenamed Tahiti, the then new AMD flagship Radeon HD 7970 was announced on December 22, 2011, and it launched the next month at $550 with disappointing drivers which only placed it originally about 20-25% faster than the Nvidia Fermi flagship, the GTX 580.  However, the primary…

REVIEW: nVidia GTX 680 OC

When it comes to graphics cards for gaming, few can argue the nVidia hasn’t dominated the arena for the last few years. Their cards keeping coming out bigger and stronger than previous generations and the development of their CUDA core smashes processing and compressing at unprecedented levels. All-in-all, it’s been the best bang for the buck. The GTX 680 has over 1500 CUDA cores making your game play and video rendering experience and absolute blast.

Whether you’re playing games which don’t require huge video card output like World of Warplanes or you’re blowing through something intense like rendering entire MMORPG games, the GTX 680 was built versatile enough to handle a broad spectrum of loads. I personally use it to run 4 monitors in extended desktop as well as a number of different games like Skyrim, Elder Scrolls Online, Need for Speed, Crysis, Starcraft II and more.

Installation of Accelero Twin Turbo II on refens GTX680 with native heat distribution plate

Installation of Accelero Twin Turbo II on refens GTX680 with native heat distribution plate

From the previous video card Palit GTX 560Ti 448 I was very lucky – Accelero Twin Turbo II was fully compatible with its heat distribution plate (Pictures are clickable)

But with the new card – EVGA GTX 670 FTW (the essence of the reference GTX 680) needed a revision of a file. Disassemble the cooling GTX 680 (picture overclockers.ru)

Had to cut out a piece of the frame around the chip.
