i only paid £ 65.00 for the GTX 680 and sold it to a friend at cost, it had a fan controller added but worked perfectly. No-one else bidded for it because of the fan controller mod......:peace:

Benchmark Scores well I've fried a 775' P4 12 years ago, that counts?
Why? One of the worst videocards of the last 5 years, outperformed by HD7970Ghz as of June 2012. Since then perfomrance took a nose dive and now the 680 is lucky to compete with an HD7870/R9 270X, and is even handily outperformed by the R9 380/285/HD7950 V2. The entire Kepler generation turned to be a failure after late 2014 when every GTX600-700 card fell off a cliff. It's gotten so bad in modern games that an HD7870Ghz = aka R9 270X is barely slower than a GTX770, while HD7970Ghz = aka R9 280X is right on the heels of the GTX780, a card that cost close to double in the year it was released with R9 280X.

well was the card i have and served me ultra great, what else i could say?

NV has long forgotten about Kepler driver support/optimizations, and it's prudent o move over to Pascal or GCN for anyone who wants to play games at 1080p over the next 2-3 years. It's why cards like GTX670 2GB sell for $40-50. No one wants them. The 680 was not only overpriced throughout its generation, had no architectural future-proofing built into it, but long ago NV has abandoned driver improvements for it unlike AMD that still supports GCN 1.0-1.2 7970 cards. To make matters worse, 680 couldn't make $ with mining, and was VRAM gimped as most gamers bought the 2GB version. In hindsight for those who bought the 670/680 instead of 7950/7950V2/7970/7970Ghz, these NV cards turned out to be some of the worst buys of 2012.
agreed, but so sad its the true, Nvidia + intel use to forget about older gens... what a shame...but thanks for the great comment indeed, great points there!

Because the 680 was a good card for what he needed. No need to be an asshole.
stop, not offender by a great point and arguments in an open topic, thanks for the support dude indeed!

670 here rekts every game i throw at it unless i am Vram starved.
so it was my 680 but any way! GTX 980 its a completely beast!

Now i paired a GTX 580 up for PhysX this never drops below 60...


PhysX hogs CPU cycles in FO4.
i have been thinking i could use my GTX 680 for physix ... mmm... mmmmm

Being price conscious and performance orientated, GTX 970 is the last GPU i will upgrade to on my Xeon system.



UK prices
GTX 680......£ 130.00
GTX 970.......£ 150.00

when i can afford it im going to get GTX 970
I'd like to buy a used 970 too but I have had such bad luck with used graphics cards that I stick to new only unless its very cheap. I had a 9800GT I bought for $20 that worked well. And a 7800GT that worked for a couple years. Otherwise my used graphics card purchases have been pretty bad. "never overclocked"... LOL right...

What about OC?What is your experience and how that goes for GTX 960 and GTX 1060 and did you tried that at all?
