**GTX 690 @ OcUK!!**

[psychodil]

Its an OCUK "value" one as well. Lol

Not too bad, I take it a pair of 680's are still going to be faster?

yes

Yes and single 680's will clock better too.

 

[subbytna]

It IS a pair of 680 chips...better than the 590 with crippled 570s

 

[no_1_dave]

Same performance (-2.8%) as SLI 680s.
Not bad.

 

[pgi947]

Thats good to know, almost threw a spanner in the build works

Still looks an appealing buy for anyone who doesn't want to overclock, or in need of a single card solution. AMD have their work cut out with the 7990

 

[Broken Hope]

The card itself looks awesome

RRP $999 according to Nvidia. Think I'll take 2 for quad SLI....

Think I'll try to squeeze one of these into a Sugo SG07 ITX case. My current 680 sits snug, but I think I cram cran an extra inch in there. Maybe I'll order and nice new Z77 ITX board and a 3770K to keep it company.

That does sound like a nice rig, I've always wanted a mini pc powerhouse.

Thought that link would take me to the Gibbo post but it's the product page for a Phanteks PH-TC14PE CPU Cooler.

OCUK GTX590 is still in GTX690 product category and there's juts one left . This Nvidia article is worth a read, although the 4GB/512-bit specs looks a bit 'misleading' as it should read 2x2GB/2x256-bit @PCIe 3.0. Bar the impressive specs, I'm more intrigued by the well-designed custom vapour cooling.

In between writing my previous post, I go away to make a hot sandwich and Gibbo beats me to it.

You have to be super rich or a lunatic. 'Investing' this sort of money in to a GPU only for a newer faster card to appear in less than 12 months must be gutting

Thats why I have a second job to pay for my Hardware Goodness

Damn... looks so nice... just a tincy bit out of my price range however... (I say tincy... would cost more than what I bought this morning)

Seems the contradict them selves with Metro here:
The first graph shows the 690 getting over 60fps
The second one shows the 690 getting 30fps and quad SLI getting less the 60fps.
In fact, BF3 and Crysys 2 graphs are inconsistent too.

Funny to see the shader clock STILL being listed.....

I want one of these for surround though... Might have to "make do" with GTX 680 SLI.
