    AMD launched a clean line up in a timely manner, although the price wasn't the best. The 680GTX is really a neat card, so I totally agree with you. Some are complaining because the 480 was 60-80% faster than the 280 it replaced, but they forget about how botched Fermi was initially. Very hot, very loud, and very power hungry. I'll sacrifice a few % for a quiet, cool, and efficient card packed with features any day.

    I'm most excited about nvidia now supporting over 2 monitors on a single card. I'm also very curious to try out the adaptive V-Sync, which turns off at low FPS to allow for higher minimum frames. They also have FXAA available from the control panel now, so I can have FXAA in all my games. Add in the dynamic GPU clocks and it looks to be a real step forward.

    DisplayPort on a reference nvidia as well!
