Can't see anything official though?

Well, there's a supposed official slide in the 2nd link a few pages down. 1006 MHz core clock with turbo to 1058. 6GHz on memory.

And the benchmark slide is interesting. No wonder why Charlie was confused.

What's the chance of a GTX680 with a high core all functioning parts and a fairly high TDP, then a GTX670 with all functioning parts but much lower TDP, then a quick release of a GTX670TI that looks as good as the GTX680 but for less money, then possibly a GTX660(TI?) to use up parts with non functioning shaders and a slower core?

Isn't that basically GF110's story?

Eh? What would the 670ti be, why would it look as good as a 680gtx but be much cheaper exactly?

Though you have a point, Nvidia might not be able to make very many cards that do 1056Mhz, it might be the equivalent of a 7980 with 1200Mhz at stock, heavily binned, very few, priced through the roof to prevent people wanting to buy it and a lower TDP, lower clocked card for significantly cheaper available in higher quantities, and a lower card again with bits disabled.

It is looking for all the world that the 680gtx is just a heavily preoverclocked part, vs a 7970 which is a stupidly underclocked part, and I still say a 7970 overclocked to a safe but high level(1150-1200Mhz) with a higher TDP will easily beat a 680gtx which will likely have little to no overclocking headroom.

AMD are being utterly stupid though, just for the love of god release a 7890 with 30% higher clocks while dropping the price on the 7950/7970 a bit BEFORE Nvidia launch and make them look completely stupid, releasing a high end part they've claimed beats AMD easily... after.... more expensive.... slower.... same TDP or even higher.


One of those is suggesting that a 670gtx uses around the 7970 type average gaming power, while a 680gtx uses 230W, which is basically exactly where a 1200Mhz 7970 would be, which would likely blow GK104 away with that clock speed.

Pretty much what I was thinking, release the uber GTX680 get lauded, but because very few of the GK104 dies do those clocks, release a GTX670TI that has all shaders etc. but has slower clocks, and is more available from binning.
