First GTX 670 review(s) up (tt & oc.net) * TT OC review added*

definitely not 299

Does open-up the possibility of a VERY good 660-class GPU for <$300. Definitely excited to see what happens there...

 

[exar333]

Kind of reminds of the points about how close the performance was with the GTX 570 and HD 6970 and were around 349 to 369 when compared to the 499 GTX 580.

Enjoy these kinds of views then defending premiums strongly!

Makes me think a big-K SKU will be released later this year to replace the 680 (maybe 685?). That would be $499-599 and would likely be 25% or so faster than the existing 680. That would be a great product spread, with the 660 likely being out as well for between $250-300.

Has nVidia's efforts with the @Folding folks paid off yet in regards to Kepler?

Reference models should be $380 at launch.

How low is distribution pricing? :biggrin:

Enough to say that our answers should be right and not the $450 some others are quoting. Not even close. If newegg sells at $450 then they are seriously gouging to the point where anyone should run.

Popping up in Europe for &#8364;380 ish.

Found the first EVGA GTX 670 I have seen on the internet here.

:biggrin:

A worthy first post.

Yep, waiting for them to appear as a step-up option..

 

[Skullcrusher1.0]

Is that done through EVGA or through retailer?

Though EVGA. Must have to have purchased an EVGA card from an approved vendor, 90 days to step-up to a new card (if and when one becomes available for step-up). I had free Amazon money so I bought a couple 570's to play with. Currently in 680 cue but I may switch to 670's when they come available.

 

[Skullcrusher1.0]

Does anyone know if there is an approximate release date for the 660's?

MSI GTX 670 In stock apparently and $409 isn't a terrible markup.

Wow wish I had a 600 series gtx xD

 

[Borealis7]

so now TweakTown has posted a review of the O/Ced GTX 670 and from what i see there, there is absolutely no reason to get a GTX 680 now.

but i did notice something weird about their power consumption charts...they say the card consumes 400 Watts at load, but also that the 680 consumes ~450, BUT the Palit 680 4GB consumes only 400! looks like a mistake.

just one more day to reviews?

Found a Galaxy version on AMAZON... no price yet though:

I am still getting the 680 :biggrin:
For some time their power consumption charts are way off,faulty equipment i guess

 

[Rvenger]

Wow, this is hard to hold out. I had the "submit order" button ready from my PSVita at 1am last night LOL. I decided to hold back and enjoy my 7970.

 

[Bubba77]

Get a vita too! I love mine

 

[Rvenger]

Get a vita too! I love mine

Oh, I have one already I was saying that I was submitting my 670 order with my Vita laying in bed. lol

 

[Hauk]

I'll take a stab at 670 TDP.. 165W -170W

 

[ShintaiDK]

Close, its 175W. 915Mhz clock, 980Mhz boost, 256bit 6Ghz memory, 1344Sps, 112 TMUs.

Tweaktown added an overclocking review of the GTX 670.

http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/4...rd_overclocked_performance_preview/index.html

NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 670 overclocking numbers aren't as impressive as we'd hoped and talking to a couple of partners about these OC results, the numbers seem consistent. What we tend to be hearing is that while getting to GTX 680 speeds aren't a problem, moving much higher is a little bit of an issue.

Just a guess, they are really binning the failed GTX 680 parts, it might be pretty sure you won't be getting any massive overclocks on this card (unless your're extremely lucky).

Here is the first "real" review with a review sample: http://www.ozeros.com/2012/05/review-nvidia-geforce-gtx-670/3/

Somebody should open a new topic.

Oh and the length of the card is real...
