NVIDIA's Kepler GTX 680 blows away the Radeon 7970 (Benchmarks inside)

[QUOTE="ronvalencia"]

[QUOTE="04dcarraher"]

Quit whining and trying to grasp straws, Who cares about Open CL performance on a Nvidia gpu, they tend to use CUDA and the 680 is a gaming card not a focused on Gpgpu so much at this point and time, then tests prove that the "GPU boost"does not work correctly for all games and they are only the first set of drivers. NVIDIA has put absolutely no time into optimizing their Kepler compiler for SmallLuxGPU So quit bashing the card.... Its faster and cheaper then AMD's offerings the field it really counts "gaming", just wait for more driver updates which will optimize their drivers for better performnce on all fronts.

Quit whining about me and address the issues at hand. Also be consistent with a range of workload types like with CPU vs CPU PC benchmarks.

Techreport did a better analysis than just those "push button" benchmarking websites.

Driver optimizations can go both ways. Please be consistent. For example, AMD's Catalyst driver already provides GPU load values and ability to change core clockspeed. Direct3D frame rate counters can be linked to V-Sync settings. 3rd party overclock tools already has access to these values.

forget benchmarks, here is why im getting a gtx680 over previous Nvidia and AMD graphics cards.

TXAA - 8x msaa with just 5% performance hit GPU Boost Tech - dynamic oc when you need more fps.

Adaptive Vertical Synh - eliminates screen tearing for the smoothest gameplay possible.

Frame Rate Target - eliminates screen tearing, eliminates stutter, etc.

so while you kids fight over frame rates ill be having fun with these new features.

Did you read techreport.com frame render latency and stutter?

On "GPU Boost Tech", I have successfully overclock to 1GHz with two 6pin PCI-E power connectors.

Right, I said that the last one was the only one where they showed they overclocked.

That's the last pic in the link :P

ronvalencia

its not 30 percent overclock, don't you know how to do math? 706*1.3 = 911

706x=1006?? whats x

Uhh 706 * 1.3 = 917.8

42.5%.~

[QUOTE="savagetwinkie"]

[QUOTE="ronvalencia"] They all show 1006 Mhz core i.e. 30 percent overclock over 706 Mhz core.Inconsistancy

Either way, it's not overclocked, because 1006 is default clock...

So this is what next gen consoles will be like. Nice.

Why are you laughing? 720/ps4 are likely arriving in around 2 years. That seems very plausible to me.

Certainly not blown away. But without a doubt GTX 680 is better. Performs better in most games and draws less power (which I found was the biggest improvement on this series, given that in the mid-high end segment, AMD has been beating nVidia over the last couple of years). And the prices is just icing on the cake.
