    before you ask, my tags have been like that since end of 2010.

    So tempted to go and buy another 1 of these at the end of this month, but I really need to pay my holiday off only got £300 left to pay.

    Grr I miss SLI and the scores it would bring from all the benchmarks.

    Either that or Ivy Bridge cpu and a Z77 board.

    I dont miss the power consumption. Up to 620w on BF3 or crysis 2. That was with 2 x 560ti.

    Exactly the same, I think CPU and Mobo are next there not that old but apparently it's holding my GPU back. :/

    Then another 680 :)

    No way is that CPU holding that GPU back!

    (unless you want it to so you have a reason to upgrade)... in which case you need to upgrade mate, otherwise you aren't getting the most out of your GPU.

    Well ethier my fps meters lie or my gtx680 is half asleep.

    But it could be some games limit the fps?

    In WoW i get 40-60fps on ultra

    Yet I have seen someone get the same fps but using surround on 3 40" tv's.


    Somthings not right...

    Sounds like wow is fps limited rather than the GPU. GPU would be working ok as will your fps meter.

    P. S.

    Can I join the 680 club and do I get a free copy of Dirt 3?

    Shhhh mikey, the annoyance of being at work for 12 hours and only having a phone to go on the internet with :) also technically I am not allowed in this club anymore, oh well :)

    and dead beat, nice blocks :thumb:

    what sort of overclock have you got on them?

    VERY nice indeed! I see you are using the 'danger couplings' as I have termed them. :D

    I hate you so much right now :D

    Really, really are tempted to just blow £650 - £900 this month on a 2nd card and waterblock's, rad's, pump's etc etc.

    I need to win the lottery, but I suppose I should play it 1st lol.

    Really looks nice :thumb:

    You git, how dare you watercool yours before me! Very nice BTW! :)

    I'm sitting on the line of whether to buy a Third GTX 680 2GB, or just hold out for the 4GB cards, and do TRI SLI with them...Just hope they will have waterblocks for the 4GB versions, as I plan to go for a custom PCB.:)

    That looks great, dead beat! Don't think I'll bother with w/c. Although I am tempted to get a third eventually.:D


    Alternatively you could join the 5Ghz club?

    /Queue excuses ;)
