I'm sorry I find it very hard to believe that this card is as good as 3 x 580's. Nvidia have never released a new card that was more than 25 to 30 percent better than a single previous model card. If this card lived up to the hipe/media dribble been bantered around no one would buy a ATI card ever again. IMO

Dunno where ya hear that, but the card is not much more than an update as the 7xxx serie is. It is on a new architecture and has the power of 2x6950.

Here a few benchmarks and graphs you can discuss about.
Due the hot,hotter,the hottest promises Nvidea did again for the Kepler (6xx) before release (as with the Thermi...eh Fermi), I expected a far superior card to the Thahiti (7xxx), but well , I guess I will stay for my plans on investing into ATI.At high resolutions is absolutely cranks down, and tesselation doesnt seem to be its advantage.
For sure it needs a few driver optimisations, but this cant be the excuse for an end resulkt, that doesnt equals Nvideas offisial announcements ... again.

I guess I will have the possibility to test 2 x 680 vs 2 x 7950 coming week at work.

Nice to see that Nvidia has some tricks up their sleeve still. AMD has been dominating the Price/Performance spot for so long they've been getting complacent. With new generations of "super cards" that means that todays affordable cards can only get cheaper.

Nice to see that the GPU market is still competitive, unlike the CPU market.
