Hi

Did some tests with 680 vs 670 on same hardware.

Run FSmark11 with rex and addons, and with kostas tweak

Res was 1650x1050 and 5040x1050 nv surround.

If you run fsx up to 2560x1440 and have à clock less than @4.9 SB , @4,7 IB.

The diff was less than 0.5fps!!!!!!!!

You only gain 2-3 fps at 5040x1050 with the [email protected] and 0,5 fps at 1680x1050

It was the same with IB @4.9

Its only à recomendation for you that thinking to uppgrade to 670 or 680

Buy à 670 if you have à normal clocked PC and Buy some good rams for the price diff

And you have à faster one than with the 680.

Cards i tested Evga 670 OC 4gb, Kfa2 680 OC 4gb

WOW! Great post. Good information for an upgrade to the 600 series.

Good to know. I'm curious to see how much the extra horsepower of my Asus 680 clocked at 1275/7000 comes in to play when running at 7960x1440. Might even get some higher clocks once I get my full water cooling setup installed, hopefully over the course of the next few days. Been so busy lately I haven't had any time for FS or tweaking my PC.
