It seems there's some news regarding nVidia's new GPU, the GTX 680. Apparently it's due for release either today, the 22nd of March, or some time very soon!

Here's a marketing video for it that was leaked only several hours ago:

All my PC components love news about new fancy graphics cards. All except my 570, who is now sulking thinking that it isn't good anymore. I mean I gave it reassurances, but the thing is so insecure its not funny!

A truth is now known; graphics cards are female :) *hides from Rakk*

I did a configuratron thingy, and the 680 came out about 40 squid more than the 580, but about 200-300 less than the 590 :)

I was reading a review but I think it was 350w and lower power consumption than the GTX 580 1.5 GB

It has a TDP of 195W so a 600W PSU will be adequate, perhaps a 750W or above for really high end systems.

I would not put anything in less than a 650w corsair. Watts matter but Amps is important and the 650w corsair tx is single rail with plenty of amps to go round.
If you plany on adding a second 680 at any time in the future than 850w minimum.

Ruben,

Please bear in mind that the issue we have discussed previously about drivers and stability will probably be even more acute in a brand new gpu release such as the gtx 680. It will probably be some months before the gpu is stable in all games etc after many, many driver updates.
