Nvidia: "It's coming"

[FunSurfer]

What is coming?

 

[alvine]

wait and find out?

Well, since it's a Geforce logo, I would assume it's something like an OC version of the 680, or possibly the 690.

LOL If we new they would just say it... I doubt it will be a surprise to any of us here but I am a little exited anyway... Still waiting on the 670 TI myself hurry up damn it LOL...

It's the video card to end all video cards , a video card so powerful it can display tall buildings in a single frame rate , freeze frame a speeding locamotive and disguised as a GTX XXX will display never ending FPS for all to enjoy.

Yes, it also appeared in Nvidia's Geforce Facebook account, so it likely to be a new card.

march 5? but today is April 19... Anyway maybe it can be dual card GTX 690 or GTX 680 Ti

I think it can be the 670, 670 Ti, 660, 660 Ti, or laptop GPU 680M, 670M whatever, I dunno. 690 in my opinion is not likely

Maybe the 680?

Maybe the 680?

lol - probably.

"We know we ran out, but we've got a bunch on back order!!!"

AMD: "It's already here... And in stock"

I gotta admit though - NVIDIA has excellent marketing. You're probably right though - most likely the midrange lineup of the 6xx series.

660 Ti for $260 please!!11!! (with no dumb autooverclocking "turboboost" fail stuff).

Why is the boost a fail??? I have not even heard anyone say anything bad about it... Why have a videocard running max unless its needed ... Sounds like a good plan to me.

i have seen a few post on TH about the boost causing a game slowdown for short time. mainly on rts or turn based when you move the camera across the map.

also here is a possible rumor confirming it to be a 690

yeah that be pretty sweet make there extreme high end a single chip. if gk110 is really as powerful as people are claiming, that one chip should be able to hold its water against the 7990 and be cheaper and more efficient. if they did that nvidia would completely steal the show from amd

I would just rather they make it a certain speed, and let me overclock it with my handy MSI Afterburner. I don't like the whole turbo thing....it reminds me of Spinal Tap, "....these go to 11". I would rather have them set it at a convservative speed, that all units could handle easily....then let me roll the dice and hope I get a good one, and overclock the crap out of it and let ME decide how much risk I want to take with killing it. Besides, even overclocked, its still not using all of its potential unless called upon to do so by the game. So I just don't get it I guess. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding how it works. But meh, really I just like playing with the settings and modding it after I buy it. Like putting a new exhaust on your car. Doesn't do much but sure is fun to do .

 

[vilenjan]

an actual supply of 680 GTX?

maybe thats coming?

 

[inzone]

It's going to be the GTX 690 and there will be a paper launch on the week of April 30 to coincide with the release of Ivy Bridge and then the hardware will hit the stores on May 5.
Sweclockers has posted that info.

Would it be too much to sell it for $450, with backplate and high flow bracket?
