March 23, 201214 yr Source in english here: http://www.techpowerup.com/162935/ZOTAC-Working-On-GeForce-GTX-680-with-2-GHz-Core-Clock-Speed.html Speaking at a conference of AIC partners, ZOTAC (China) General Manager Mr. Kwai claimed that his company was working on a "Godly" GeForce GTX 680 non-reference design graphics card, with 2 GHz core clock speed. The card will be designed to demonstrate ZOTAC's engineering potential with non-reference designs. It will be ready by mid-April, 2012. Then again, there could be a catch. ZOTAC China has, in the past, designed certain bleeding-edge graphics cards exclusively for the Chinese market, which never made it to Europe and the US. ZOTAC is an NVIDIA-exclusive brand backed by OEM Goliath PC Partner, which also holds AMD-exclusive brand Sapphire Technology.
March 23, 201214 yr Yeah. That's what we spoke about on CeBIT. Zotac has been releasing extreme cards on the chinese market for a while now, but those never make it to the US or EU. Example: GTX580 GTX560 Ti GTX260 Dual GTS250 Dual GTX460
March 23, 201214 yr Yeah, have never heard of non-reference design able to push 100% jump in clocks. 200/300/400Mhz at max I say......
March 23, 201214 yr Side-question..... Who has access to these non-ref cards? I would be interested in trying a few I imagine their GTS250 X2 is quite fun
March 23, 201214 yr 2GHz ? Sure. How many tequila shots did they have before saying that ? 1.4GHz with proper cooling & voltage is more than possible. But 2GHz ? Yeah right.
March 23, 201214 yr maybe they are talking about a dual gpu card and made the mistake to add the GHZ 1+1=2 SOUNDS LEGIT! :D
March 25, 201214 yr that was misinterpreted, they are working on 2 GH capable card, but only under LN2 ... default clock will be 1200 MHz
March 25, 201214 yr so they 'guarantee' 2GHz clock under LN2 or it is just a marketing prediction based on one super-duper-cherry-binned card ?
