    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    All said and done the 680 / 670 will not win against the HD 7970 / HD 7950 when all cards are overclocked. At best they trade blows. But if you want to avoid the OC topic then thats fine. Anyway I have spoken to users who have used both HD 7970 and GTX 680 OC'd and their opinion is different...

    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    People can think what they want. About my comments on the games I am clear. I have played Batman Arkham city in DX9 when it came out. I enjoyed it. fantastic game. played it once more. I could not play in DX11 (when the patch came out) because of stability issues. I just didn't really feel it...

    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    Next you are going to complain that its unfair that AMD released HD 7970 before GTX 680. I can't believe this line of argument. When improvements happen and its seen why would anybody object. Until that its speculation.

    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    I think you are trying to get away from OC results because its not to your liking. You believe that a press sample of GTX 670 is the same card as a retail sample. I have to say you are naive. Nvidia can easily send the best GTX 670 samples which have the best Turbo speeds and the best OC speeds...

    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    I am talking 670 OC to HD 7950 OC from another site. If you have objections fine. But its not that the comparison is invalid. they are priced at the same point. so OC perf comparisons are not to be ignored. not at all. In fact taking games which favour NV too will not change the OC performance...

    Benchmark methodology discussion for NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review

    My complaint was the general tone of the conclusion from the GTX 670 review is not reflective of the true competitiveness of AMD HD 7970 / 7950 vs Nvidia GTX 680 / 670. "With performance that comes awfully close to a fully enabled GK104, the GTX 670 poses a nightmare scenario for AMD. Fresh...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review Comment Thread

    I have a slightly different opinion. Nvidia and AMD have been making their GPUs more GPGPU friendly. Nvidia GF100 / GF110 clearly indicate that. Its just that there is no Nvidia GK100. Maybe the same efficiency concerns (perf /watt) and heat concerns will be there with a similar GPU (compute +...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review Comment Thread

    I have a HD 6950 and to some degree can understand what you say. I faced problems with Rage on launch and had to wait till 11.11c to play the game completely. AMD needs to improve their driver quality. They need to work much more closely with developers and have robust launch day drivers. I feel...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review Comment Thread

    Nvidia terminated GTX 580 production in late Q1 it seems. So I don't understand how stocks could dry up when HD 7950 launched. Both of us don't know newegg stocks for each of the GTX 580 cards. So I would not speculate. Nvidia terminates GeForce GTX 580 production NVIDIA Stops Production of...

    we all know who sound like Nvidia PR HD 7970 Price Cuts? Don "Through a few well placed sources in the retail chain we hear that backorder queues for the GTX 680 are filling up faster than AMD can sell HD 7900-series cards. " So you now have become a market research company like NPD...

    You talk about karma to me a Indian Hindu Brahmin. I know my religion and my philosophy. FYI the concept of nishkam karma is work with complete devotion but without attachment to results or material gains. The more the attachment with results the more the pain/pleasure and more easily the person...

    I have looked at hardocp and they have a good way of benchmarking with fraps recording gameplay sequences. Their BF3 results are much closer than what I see here. They do a benchmark of "Operation Swordbreaker" which is the most difficult level in the game HARDOCP - Battlefield 3 - NVIDIA...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review Comment Thread

    BF3 is similar on HD 7970 and GTX 680 when both are OC'd. I guess for you Alan Wake is a game no one plays because Nvidia does not do well on that. :biggrin: Yeah I get it. Alan Wake for PC released in Feb 2012. On Valve Steam it was a good seller. The game was a critical and retail success. I...

    A reference GTX 680 with Turbo boost is doing 1050 - 1100 Mhz. MSI HD 7970 Lightning is at 1070 Mhz. Clock for clock they HD 7970 are GTX 680 are close in BF3. Funny how you chose to neglect the 1280 Mhz scores. maybe this is called perception

    Are you denying Turbo Boost feature in GTX 680 ? Google Translate the review shows two different GTX 680 cards have different Turbo boost. the better sample is boosting to 1110 Mhz. Press samples of GTX 680 cards can definitely be hand picked to give the best turbo boost. HD 7970 OC (950) -...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 2GB Review Comment Thread

    I have nothing against Nvidia. They are the dominant graphics company with a great track record of excellent GPUs like G80, GF110. My opinions are that the GTX 680 can be made to look better than it really is. All it needs is careful selection of games and benchmark scenarios. Rcapitulatif des...
