A user on HKEPC has posted the first real benchmarks of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 GPU which features the Kepler GK104 28nm chip. The user backed his benchmark with a shot of the GTX 680 running on a LN2 cooled rig.
The benchmarks pit the GeForce GTX 680 against the Radeon HD 7970 and GeForce GTX 580 ? Both GPU?s are NVIDIA/AMD?s current flagship cards. The clocks of GeForce GTX 680 are maintained at a 1006Mhz Core and 6008Mhz Memory clock. Test bed included the following rig:
■Intel Core i7 3960X (Turbo Boost)
■ASUS Rampage IV Extreme motherboard
■8 GB (4x 2 GB) GeIL EVO 2 DDR3-2200 MHz quad-channel memory
■Corsair AX1200W PSU
■Windows 7 x64
Overall we are looking at great performance from GeForce GTX 680 which is not only faster but also operates at a much lower temperature and consumes lesser power than its rival HD 7970.
The GPU?s were benchmarked in 3DMark 11 (Performance and Extreme Preset) along with a few gaming titles, Temperatures were also recorded. You can check the slides below:
