GeForce GTX 680 compatibility review

Overall, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 680 has exceptional performance. The levels of performance that can be reached with this graphics card are in fact far and beyond the acceptable ranges when running the latest applications and games. The graphics card is over 2 years old, meaning it is based on aging technologies. The level of driver support available from the manufacturer is pretty good, which means new and recent games are being continually optimized.

With an effective SPU count of 1625, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 680 processes shading and special graphical effects with no trouble at all. The GPU is quite power-hungry at 195 Watts, however. With a memory bandwidth of 192.3 GB/sec, this graphics card is extremely effective at processing detailed textures in modern applications and games.
