EVGA, Inno 3D, Club 3D, KFA2, Palit, Galaxy, PNY, MSI, ASUS, Zotac and PoV all launch reference GTX 680s

On a day like this, with Nvidia launching such a highly anticipated product in the form of the GTX 680, naturally every single Nvidia board partner wants to tell you about “their” GTX 680. But at the end of the day, everything released today bar a few exceptions is going to be a reference design with a new sticker or colour pattern. And so today we have GTX 680s from the likes of: EVGA, Inno 3D, Club 3D, KFA2, Palit, Galaxy, PNY, MSI, ASUS, Zotac and PoV. It’s possible we missed someone out and yes Nvidia does have that many partners. Anyway, the long and short of it is they are all releasing the new 28nm GTX 680 built off the Kepler architecture.
