Kepler news and discussion

i know about afterburner and i also know the older version of precision. the new precision x has something new such as frame target. does the latest afterburner have something like that?

I don't know, Haven't really used afterburner lately. You should find out yourself/search on the web, Sorry

I believe MSI has released their newest version of Afterburner. NVIDIA's new drivers mention'd Frame rate target, using their 3rd party partners software

 

[renz496]

i've already go to msi site for after burner and it seems that even the latest beta are pretty much like the older afterburner though with some feature added to it. just asking if anybody here have more clue about it

 

[Rockdpm]

MSI might have not changed the UI like EVGA did with precision

http://www.techpowerup.com/163889/NVIDIA-GK106-GPU-Detailed.html

the gk106 is

28 nm, around 210 mm² die-area, Kepler architecture
Two Graphics Processing Clusters (GPCs), four Streaming Multiprocessors (SMXs)
768 CUDA cores
64 TMUs, 24 ROPs
192-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 1.5 GB or 2 GB memory
PCI-Express 3.0 bus interface
Around 130W TDP
Speculated performance comparable to GTX 560 Ti and HD 6950, competitive to Radeon HD 7800 series

looks to be the same size as pitcairn with performance just below it.

i have no idea what evga did with precisionX. after i installed it and set my best overclock from precision, 1066 core clock on my 550ti, i go 2 minutes into benching with OC scanner before it "trips" and sets the core @ 450 and stays there unless i reboot 🙁
i watched it and my temps hit 68c . .

Sorry been away for a little while and was reading all the pages here and the rumorville before...infant keeping me busy So the 680 is the Kepler Gaming Beast? I had to get rid of my 4890 (AMD) back in January and couldnt wait for Kepler. I was thinking of doing the switch over the summer to Kepler as that's when I will switch to Ivy Bridge (got a i5 SB basically half off).

I think there are some geeks that will buy that overpriced **** xD. I hope they will drop in price since I do want a 4GB GTX 680..

 

[lostcard]

here is some extra rumors on a 680 gtx variant

another light read have fun

 

[lostcard]

btw i dont know what is in their cofee or tea but i do know it must not be good for the brain with those prices

 

[Ironwilly]

This Zotac is back in stock if anyone is interested.

[lostcard]

by the time i took a look sould out 😛

 

[Ironwilly]

Yep. I should have posted it earlier. For some reason Tom's won't let me edit the post to say it's out of stock again.

The company I'm working for shows we'll be getting 2 of the EVGA cards in this week, but it's the reference cooler. We normally get shipments Thursday. We'll see.

One thing is for sure, all these issues with supply are costing Nvidia money lol. And I want my cards... in fact, the longer it takes, the more I'm leaning towards waiting for the GK110. Actually being able to purchase a non-reference 680 would probably make a huge difference in that decision though.

i found this review a short while ago seemed kinda interesting

http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/4662/msi_geforce_gtx_680_twinfrozr_2gb_overclocked_video_card_review/index.html


a few non ref cards have been tested kinda hard for me to understand why even fewer have no release date yet 😱
kinda hoping abit that the non ref cards will fill a good deal of the hunger people have for them atm

 

[Ironwilly]

Nice review. There is some very good overclocking headroom in these cards it seems. I just don't quite understand their power consumption graph:

Either they are using old information in this chart, or the information is conflicting with everything else I've seen. I'm upgrading from a pair of 570s to a pair of 680s. From most of what I've read, the 680s should consume less power, but this chart shows them using more. I don't trust this chart... Am I incorrect in thinking the 680s are less power hungry than the 570s?

 

[lostcard]

the last few reviews i have been reading on that site have their benchmarking all over the place

 

[simon12]

The chart also shows a 7850 using less power than a 7750

 

[mikeny]

Is the 680 the top of the line or are others coming? (not including the duel model)

 

[esrever]

others are always coming out.

 

[Rockdpm]

There's that Bug again............

 

[JAYDEEJOHN]

What bug
Ya know, I have a few pixels out in this wierd pattern

 

[Guest]

i got bug spray . . . really i had to go to the store and get some because my computer "area" has been getting invaded by ants lately . . .
