NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Launch Video Leaked: World's Fastest GPU

An alleged marketing video of NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 680, slated for after launch, got leaked and uploaded to YouTube by an Italian-speaking YouTube user (going by the Italian used in the description). The part that makes it look genuine is it features NVIDIA's VP for Corporate Marketing Ujesh Desai, holding the graphics card, and detailing it. He claims that NVIDIA set out to build the fastest GPU - "and accomplished it." The entire bouquet of new features introduced with the GeForce GTX 680 has been disclosed in the video, to great detail.

Watch the video (embedded from YouTube) after the break.

bencrutzwill it?
assuming GPU Boost already took an advantage of that 'headroom', i kinda doubt OCing it further will result in great performance scaling like on tahiti. ah, can't wait for wizz's review :banghead:
Well from the reports it can boost up to 1200 core, and I doubt that's the hard limit. There's bound to be some more after that, and when you factor in voltage tweaking its not unreasonable.

"The performance really is quite amazing and you can see that at times it has no issues competing with the dual GPU Radeon HD 6990 video card from AMD." -tweaktown

I too noticed they didn't use 300.99, which afaik are the proper drivers for GTX 680.

nvidiaintelftwlooks like tweaktowns is up! its a bit lackluster though. no BF3 benchmark, overclocking benchmarks, multi monitor, and somehow the card uses 50w more then the 7970. Also they are using out dated drivers.

Thanks!

AFAIK, Tweaktown never put their overclocking reviews together with reference clock reviews. They always do separate overclocking reviews.

yeah 300.99 brought some significant performance enhancements. this GTX680 is a lot of win though
