ok, but what is the Y axle and why are all ATI cards suspiciously capped at 1.0 in every instance?

the 7970 was used as a "baseline" so whatever the 7970 got was ranked as 100% (1.0) for each test

talking about bad graphs ;) yea its old news anyway (a few weeks old)

0.8-1.0 so the RED is tiny...then cranking it up from 1.0-1.5 3 times the hight....lol nvidia is desperate

The sad part? ppl fall for it Shocked.

OMFG! The GTX680 can render vertical green bars so much faster/better/stronger than the AMD cards!

OP, can we get a graph with the price per green-bar-rendering performance breakdown?

Yeah, a really nice scaling of the Y-axis. Very subtle indeed Roll

why extend the graph lower? its balanced the graph goes as low as it needs to go and goes as high as it needs to go it counts up by .1 it counts down by .1, how much more unbiased do you need it?????

or do you want the 1.5 to be where the 1.1 to make it look less biased? not their fault it runs 43%~ better than 7970 for BF3 (well it is)

Tom's Hardware review of the 680: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-680-review-benchmark,3161.html

Summary:
Quote:
GeForce GTX 680 is now the fastest single-GPU graphics card, and not by a margin that leaves room to hem or haw. Making matters worse for AMD, the GTX 680 is priced right between its Radeon HD 7970 and 7950. Providing that Nvidia’s launch price sticks, both Radeon HD 7900s need to be significantly less expensive in order to compete. I'd expect to see the 7970 drop $100. The 7950 would have to slide $50 to leave some room between the 7870 and 7970.
...
Given our benchmark data, power results, a distinguished list of features, and a competitive price tag, the GeForce GTX 680 is easily a better gaming card than Radeon HD 7970. And because Nvidia finally supports more than two display outputs, I can consider Kepler for my own workstation.

That is, of course, if I’m able to part ways with $500. Budget-constrained gamers should remember that the Radeon HD 7870, which AMD previewed earlier this month, just recently showed up on shopping sites. Sitting right around $360, I consider it a smarter value than both of the 7900s. It trades blows with GeForce GTX 580 in the benchmarks, and it sips power. Don’t let today’s GeForce GTX 680 news completely overshadow availability of what we consider to be a far more accessible piece of hardware. Kepler is cool, but it’s definitely pricey.



If you're after price per performance, wait for the expected ATI price drops. If you really want to shell out 500 USD for the 680, look at the games benchmarks and make sure the 680 is actually better for the games you play. Plus, don't forget that Nvidia will mostly likely release improved versions (more memory, better optimized, etc.) as they perfect the chipset.

You're a funny person, aren't you?

Your chosen avatar name is 'Hired Assasin' [which is a complete misspelling] and you chose the word '****' to describe some kind of ownage.

I hope you take a different road before you arrive at the destination known as scary-creepy-ville, twinned with narcissist-town.

OT; The 680 will be delivered to my new computer once Ivybridge hits the shelves and I place an order for it to be built.

It really is a nice card - Cysis2 maxed out with no overclock and no SLI?

Yes please.

BF3 @ 60 fps maxed out on Ultra?

Yum.

And...it's just a mid-range card. Staggering performance.

And welcome to the internet Grammar N***, kindly do a search for "Hired Assassin" you will understand why my name is like this, even though half the people don't even notice.

also yes it is an amazing card, im hoping to buy the 690 when it comes out.
