NVIDIA is prepping a Tesla 3000 part based on the GeForce GTX 690. This new GPGPU card will reportedly feature two GPUs with 4GB GDDR5 memory per chip for a grand total of 8GB GDDR5, accordiong to BSN:

Every GPU is paired with 4GB GDDR5 memory for a grand total of 8GB, a world record for a GPU. Our sources warned us that this product is also suffering from the GPU Compute choices the company made with GK104 chip, and the new Tesla C3000 Series part will follow suit. We've been told to expect good SP performance (IEEE 754 "binary32" Single Precision), and GeForce-specific weak DP FP (IEEE 754 "binary64" Double Precision). According to the sources, "the big daddy silicon" is still not ready, while there is a lot of market demand for Kepler-based SP FP applications.

Given that Kepler GPU architecture increased the amount of SP FLOP (Floating Point Operation) from 64 to 96 in a single cycle, we understand the market demand for SP. While HPC customers will probably opt to wait for GK110-based Kepler boards, there is a large amount of customers that said that they don't give a "rat's behind" for DP and that they demand a Kepler part for their computational needs.

EVGA announces full details on the EVGA GeForce GTX 680 FTW. This card offers several enhancements over the standard GeForce GTX 680 including an 8 Phase PWM design, an 8+6pin Power Input and Vapor Chamber cooling. EVGA is even offering a version with 4GB of GDDR5 memory.

Both cards utilize EVGA's Signature board design. The 2 GB model has clock speeds of 1110 MHz (core base), 1176 MHz (core boost), and 6.20 GHz (memory, effective). The 4 GB variant get however has the memory clock speed default at 6 GHz. Both cards draw power from 6-pin + 8-pin power connectors.

The EVGA GTX 680 FTW 2 GB is priced at US $569.99, while the EVGA GTX 680 FTW 4 GB w/backplate is priced at US $629.99.

KFA2 is set to launch two new GeForce GTX 680 graphics card, the GTX 680 EX OC Series, and the GTX 680 Limited Edition OC with an all white PCB -- very sexy.

The GTX 680 EX OC will become available in 2 GB and 4 GB versions and will get a factory clock of 1110 MHz (core base) with a nice 1176 MHz on the core boost. The memory will remain reference clocked at 6 GHz memory. The card will get a custom design dual-fan cooling solution. See below.

Where things get really interesting is the GeForce GTX 680 Limited Edition OC. As per branding this will be a limited volume product. It will have an expensive white-colored PCB (white for whatever reason is the most expensive thing to do with a PCB color), and a triple-fan cooling solution that both Galaxy and KFA2 already used on some of their most premium graphics cards of the previous generation. 

This LTD OC card is factory overclocked toward a whopping 1202 MHz (core base) with 1267 MHz (core boost), and that my guru's is very high. The 6 GHz memory remains untouched and stock clocked. The card  packs 2 GB of memory. According to KFA2, will include a display output layout of two dual-link DVI, and one each of HDMI and DisplayPort (diverting from the photo).

We review the Palit GeForce GTX 680 4GB Jetstream edition. Why 4 GB ? Well some of you like to game at extremely high resolutions or have 8xAA as a bare minimum. If a graphics card runs out of graphics memory it'll starts swapping frames back and forward in that framebuffer which decreases the overall framerate. So today we'll look at the 4GB model, we'll specifically place a focus at some tests at 2560x1600 with a good chunk of AA enabled to see what difference the extra 2GB graphics memory will bring us in terms of performance.

Check out the review here.

More and more rumors surface that AMD may be preparing to launch a GHz edition of its Radeon HD 7970. Current stock models are clocked at 925MHz, but recent chips seem to be able to hit 1.25GHz without struggling.

According to Australian site Atomic MPC, the company has revealed that the manufacturing process of its next-gen GPUs has improved to the point where the same average voltages can yield much higher clock speeds. Recent chips can reach 1.25GHz without struggling, which means a conservative "GHz Edition" of the 7970 can now safely be rolled out, of course with scope for much higher overclocking on third-party boards with more robust coolers. By the time the battle between Red and Green reaches full-swing, it might not be so easy to call a winner.

The new HD 7970 GHz Edition will come with reference core clock speed of 1050 MHz.

Legit came across a picture of a single-slot GeForce GTX 670 video card from Galaxy.
It's an odd looking beast, with the power connectors almost in the middle of the top edge of the card, plus a very long length to allow the slim cooler to have enough cooling capacity to cool the GK104 GPU and surrounding components. It also appears to have a power LED near the backplate, which might prove useful in troubleshooting situations.

We have shown it before, but Inno3D introduces the iChill HerculeZ 3000 GTX 680, a mouthful for a new GeForce GTX 680 with a custom cooling solution. The card features five heatpipes, over 100 aluminium fins, three detachable fans (for easy cleaning), and a detachable cover.
Inno3D now brings you the iChill HerculeZ 3000 GTX 680! The daisy chain architecture of the cooler design allows for multiple customizable configuration to suit your style. The latest HerculeZ models has 9 scythe blades on each of its fans that work actively with the Herculez Ball Bearing to keep the temperature cool under the hood at all times.

The HerculeZ is made up of a large heatsink with several large heatpipes protruding from the side. The reflective cores indicate a well lapped heatsink as the flat and smooth surface provides better surface area for heat dissipation. Looking at the underside you get a good look at the large heatsink fins which are quite dense and have been designed around the shroud as they fit it very nicely.

Heatpipes are an efficient way of moving heat from one area to another and are usually used to connect the high density block of the cooler with the large surface area fins.

You have probably seen it on a couple of other selected websites already (our sample arrived a tad late), but NVIDIA is sending around the GeForce GTX 690 in a rather original way.  A week prior to shipping out the card some press (including Guru3D) received a crowbar. To use against zombies or .... was marked on it. 

Once we received the package with the card it all made sense, the card came in a wooden crate. Honestly I'm a sucker for for these things, and absolutely loved the idea. Though I doubt the crowbar made is through customs for everybody :)

A little while ago we already reproted about this card, but coolaler posted some more photo's on this product.

The card will eat up 3 expansion slots in your system. The cooler itself is vapor-chamber plate, which draws heat from the GPU and memory chips. You'll spot four 8 mm-thick copper heat-pipesconnected to a huge heatsink in a closed loop where there are five 40 mm fans located.

The back side of the card is also visible pn the photo's and comes with a back-plate and four NEC Tokin proadlizers, have a peek:
