GG AMD.

That 650Ti looks like the best deal there. Wouldn't even bother looking at the 500 series after these drop.

Also doesn't look like the 7870/7850 are going to be a match for the mid range cards either. Oh well. Nvidia FTW!

Saw a similar article a couple weeks ago, still waiting on more concrete evidence instead of these rumours.

Still, without a doubt, a GTX 680 with my name on it has secured a place in my rig soon after launch day...to start.....

Like everything I take with pinch of salt. OFFICIAL pictures or it DIDN'T HAPPEN. I have no problems giving whomever is better my money. My mobo supports both SLI and Xfire so whomever has the best card for my money wins. Plain and simple.

^ With you on this one!

Also, until my 6990 cries out, I see no need to upgrade.

phoenix31tt · « **Reply #6 on:** February 13, 2012, 04:14:51 PM »

bleh... as with previous nvidia releases... i'll wait till its actually out and benched..

still not upgrading for awhile doh

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #7 on:** February 14, 2012, 09:43:54 AM »

likewise, not upgrading for a while....but keenly interested in the development of this line.

More than likely most ppl CPUs will be the bottleneck here.
Also considering it's PCIe 3.0, most ppl may have to upgrade their boards as well (I know i will), if they want to unlock the true potential of the card (i'm talking about the GTX 680).

I will not be upgrading for a while...

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #9 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:59:11 AM »

bottleneck or not, you'll be playing games at blistering speeds. That's for sure.

and that's the more important thing imo, lol

Berzerk · « **Reply #10 on:** February 14, 2012, 12:03:42 PM »

hmmm glad I en upgrade in awhile.

W1nTry · « **Reply #11 on:** March 08, 2012, 08:39:42 PM »

So it seems that waiting could pay off... after seeing the successful launch of the 7k series AMD gpus, I figured, hey why not at least WAIT to see what the green team has to offer... interesting times...

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Kepler-Samaritan-GeForce-GK104-gpu,14927.html#xtor=RSS-998

In case you're too lazy to read that RATHER SHORT article... it basically says, Nvidia kepler is able to run (in real time) an EPIC Games Demo on ONE kepler card, that took them 3 GTX 580s to run last year.... unless its a GTX 690 which is technically 2 GTX 680s then i'd say the increase in performance is HARD to ignore.

A DOWN PAYMENT on a SECOND HAND CAR is NOT a good price... (u ask how is this possibly a down payment? we just sold a PBD elantra for 13k so YEAH 4K IS A DAMN DOWNPAYMENT) I does MARVELL at ppl that willing to pay thousands for comp parts and say 4K is a GOOD PRICE... or a phone, or a ANYTHING that isn't actually a life needed necessity... that being said, I also know if you have it spend it, but many ppl spend copious amts of money on FRIVOLOUS things and cyah even pay rent or food bills, or baby fees...

Sorry bout the rant ppls, I just can't let it be said that 700USD is a GOOD price.

captainchris · « **Reply #17 on:** March 10, 2012, 04:12:43 PM »

That can never be a good price!!

NEVER, not for a start up price at least.
Tell me you plan to let it sit for as least a month or 2 before you spend 700US x 2 ....

Arcmanov · « **Reply #18 on:** March 11, 2012, 01:31:39 AM »

700 US getting two midrange cards that will pwn one of those so-called 'high-end'.

I not even willing to pay 400 US for a card, so 700 is absolute mind-lossery.
