Those results weren't as impressive as you made it sound Capn. The 3DMark showed a marked increase the actual gameplay wasn't as stellar and tied in some cases. We have to see the price of these cards now to determine who's best and as with everything milleage will vary depending on budget and needs.

Tied exactly in one place, where im led to assume that the game is cpu limited at that resolution since both cards produce the SAME fps...not to mention that mw3 engine is like7 or 8 years old at this point.

I'm inclined to agree with Hard. Historically, competing cards in the same segment from both manufacturers are usually very close performance wise with Nvidia being slightly slower.

This time, the opposite seems to be true AND does so with less total power consumption and lower tdp. Coupled with the fact that I expect that with more mature non-beta drivers, performance will only look better compared to ATI's 'more matured' (insert fistful of salt here) drivers.

I'd say this (if true) is an epic win for nvidia. ONLY thing that would make it fail is if the price delta between the two cards is too great.

LOL @ 'fistful of salt'. I have experienced the best and worst of AMD's drivers, so I know of what you speak.

All of a sudden, the GPU wars have heated up again.

I await the announcement of the midrange kit. (660/670 GTX, maybe?)

More reviews. Comments from ppl in India and Malaysia wanting cheaper prices on the GPU

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #32 on:** March 22, 2012, 12:20:39 PM »

WOW!! This thing TRIPLES the performance of a single one of my GTX 460's!!!

want want want want want

Arcmanov · « **Reply #33 on:** March 22, 2012, 01:50:57 PM »

Wow... dual-GPU cards and all getting a beat-out.

Nvidia strike gold this rounds yes.

If only **heavy prayers** the price could come down to about 450 US, I may have reason to ditch Crossfire/SLI for my next upgrade.

I wonder if two of these in SLI could wine up on three 7970s?

I wouldn't day nvidia never disappoint, but this is definitely a welcomed product. Waiting on 650gtx

Raster and cheeze, nvidia boy waaayyeeeee.
Card keeping pace with my 6990 oui, my word.

Well like i always say, no blasted loyaltee nah, amd could hull they tail.
Nvidia come good boy rass.
More performance than d 7970, Less TPD and less $$, RASS!

One of them cards going toe-toe wiht my current card, i wondering what 2 woudl do.

Any word on when we seeing d GTX 690?, that will be disgustingly sweet, based on how d 680 getting on, and most likely my Next GPU.

(Time to join d green team)

I'd like to see that comparison myself. Going off raw power, woudlnt be able to , but if they SLI scaling better, mite juss be another beat-out.

captainchris · « **Reply #37 on:** March 22, 2012, 06:45:10 PM »

I see 2 of these in my near future

6990 for sale!

unless i can get another 6990 i will keep mine and quad fire

MessiaaH · « **Reply #38 on:** March 22, 2012, 07:12:16 PM »

Only problem with quadfire it doesnt scale well.

2 680s will WTFPWN 2 6990s unfortunately.

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #39 on:** March 22, 2012, 07:18:28 PM »

Contemplating waiting on the 4gb version. With 3d coming in more and more, may need the extra texture storage soon er rather than later.
