The worst part about that is it will be some guy that just does benchmarks.

Yeah that's the sad truth, I wonder how many of these "benchmark guys" actually sit down and enjoy a good game of anything.

Hope there's some good Surround mode updates, that's always something that needs refinement.

Surround with the 6 series might not be the same as they changed how it works a fair bit. You might find sport drop off Guyber.

I still have my 400 series cards, so I'm guessing they will tailor the drivers to better suit the later cards then.
I'm installing them now and looks like I have missed a couple of updates because I was still on 301.something [MOG]

edit:

Got a bit of a scare then when it said something about driver install fail and everything was squashed onto the one screen. Sorted it out though and will try some games soon to see if there's any improvement or if we've gone backwards.

Didn't know how versatile the GTX680 is www.geforce.com/...
I knew it could run 3 screens of one card but didn't know it could run the 3rd one off the HDMI port, I thought it would have to be a display port effort like Eyefinity. The only time you need to run a 3rd screen off the display port is if you are running 3D Surround, well that's how I read that. Also a 4th "accessory" screen can be run as well off that card, that's pretty cool [Derp]

Yeah they have integrated an active third clock signal right into the card. Really cool to see that, it was a rare feature before.

Been using a GTX680 for a few days now, just got a single card configuration for now, it is water cooled but not overclocked yet. Got 3 screens plugged into the one card, pretty happy that it uses 2 x DVI + 1 x HDMI to do that and not that stupid display port.
Tried a a couple of games in Surround mode and I'm actually impressed that this one card managed to run this mode on its own. For games with PhysX I have a GT620 helping it out but apart from that it's working solo and it's doing well. I do have to wind down the detail settings especially the AA to run in Surround mode with a decent frame rate. Lets see how well it goes with some overclocking.

This is apparently pretty true, a lot of the manufacturers are hinting on a release very soon, or at least details to come out. I don't think we will see the card until April though. Sounding pretty epic!

They're supposed to be just under a 690 in performance, WILL support quad SLI and may be as much as $1300 here in Aus.

Very strange a single GPU card will be retailing that much but yeah.

Now we wait for some rich kid to do a quad SLI setup...
