A true heavy weapon for serious gamers, the Galaxy 68NPH6DT6EXZ GeForce GTX 680 SOC White Edition graphics card delivers monstrous game-changing performance to dominate the most intense competition. Based on the fastest and most power efficient GPU ever built by NVIDIA - the 28nm Kepler architecture, this card features 1536 CUDA Cores with 2GB/256-bit GDDR5 memory. This Super Overclocked (SOC) edition is substantially factory overclocked to 1202MHz Base Clock/1267MHz Boost Clock – roughly 20% higher than reference specification, bringing you greatly improved gaming prowess without costing too much. No need to worry about the cooling even under so amazing frequency, quad nickel-plated heatpipes with custom triple-fan ensures efficient, quiet cooling that allows you to game in complete peace of mind. With support for all the premium GTX gaming technologies such as NVIDIA Surround, 3D Vision, PhysX and SLI, the Galaxy GeForce GTX 680 GC 4GB gives you more than one way to elevate your experience.
GeForce GTX 680 SOC White EditionBeyond NVIDIA's reference card, the Galaxy 68NPH6DT6EXZ GeForce GTX 680 SOC White Edition features 1202MHz Base Clock/1267MHz Boost Clock which is about 20% higher than reference design of 1006MHz Base Clock/1058MHz Boost Clock, achieving a remarkable performance boost you can feel in actual gaming. The fully-redesigned white PCB makes your card stand out immediately, and quad nickel-plated heatpipes with high-efficiency triple-fan cooler keep your video card running cool and stable even during the most challenging condition.
NVIDIA GPU BoostUp until now, GPUs have operated at a fixed clock speed when playing 3D games, even if they have the potential to run faster. GPU Boost intelligently monitors graphics work load and increases the clock speed whenever possible. The result is that the GPU always performs at its peak and you get the highest framerate possible.
NVIDIA Adaptive Vertical SyncNothing is more distracting than framerate stuttering and screen tearing. The first tends to occur when framerates are low, the second when framerates are high. Adaptive V-Sync is a smarter way to render frames. At high framerates, V-sync is enabled to eliminate tearing, at low frame rates, it's disabled to minimize stuttering. It gets rid of distractions so you can get on with gaming.
NVIDIA Surround with Up To Four MonitorsNothing is as breathtaking as playing your favorite games across three monitors. At 5760 x 1080, the expanded field of view fully engages human peripheral vision and provides for the most immersive experience in racing and flight simulators. Add in a fourth display to keep tabs on chat, email or web while you are gaming.
TXAA AntiAliasingAntialiasing helps to smooth out jagged lines in games. Existing techniques like MSAA are effective at removing jagged lines in still images but struggle with crawling and shimmering artifacts when the player is in motion. TXAA is a new antialiasing mode that combines MSAA, temporal filtering, and post processing for the highest edge quality and minimal shimmering during gameplay.
NVIDIA 3D Vision ReadyNVIDIA 3D Vision brings a fully immersive, stereoscopic 3D experience to the PC. A combination of high-tech wireless glasses and advanced software, 3D Vision transforms hundreds of PC games into full stereoscopic 3D. Get up to 2x monitor and keyboard brightness with NVIDIA 3D LightBoost technology. In addition, you can enjoy 3D movies and 3D digital photographs from 3DVisionLive.com in eye popping, crystal-clear quality.
Pros: Per description should be 1267 Mhz on boost. I'm hitting 1320 Mhz out of box without any additional OC'ing. I can only imagine how much higher i can push it. No other card out there is able to even touch that on manufacturers OC. White sets it apart.
Cons: Runs at 79*C under 10-15 minutes of full load, although fans were only at ~50% not sure how high it will go up after a extensive gaming/testing session. Fans are very loud at 60%-100%.
Overall Review: Having played around with this card for only couple days i'm blown away be the level of OC and the speeds that this card can reach. It's definitively a cherry picked gpu. Visually not much to look at, a white board and 3 huge fans. Can be a bit loud. 3 Mini-HDMI connectors on the back but no normal HDMI one, comes with a connector thought
