Looks like some benchmarks leaked out early from Tomshardware for the GTX 680 2GB card. And it seems to beat the Radeon 7970 3GB, but not by much. And I'm kinda wondering if the 2GB memory could be holding the 680 back at the 30 inch resolution in a couple of those tests (since the GTX 680 was winning and lower resolutions then fell behind at the highest resolution).

I own the 580. This doesn't justify the cost.

All I see is the previous generation AMD card (6990) beating the brand new nVidia child in many benches...

It's a $700 dual GPU card that has been next to impossible to find for most of it's life as well.

And AMD has a 7990 dual GPU monster coming as well.

The 7990 is a dual card. Put that up against 2 680s...

Currently in the MMO unemployment line.
Can I get $15/month for not playing them?

NewEgg leaked the price. The GTX 680 starts as low as $499.

I am still looking to replace my 5670 card LOL. i was thinking the 560ti/560ti 448 or maybe 6870/6900 series? I really hate spending more than 2-300 on a card.

So when do the GTX 660s and other versions that might actually make sense to spend money on come out?
