Post GTX 680 - who else has/is getting one?
I just ordered one, was curious how many other of you nigs have one or are looking to get one. Nice little chunk of cash to drop, but it should be worth it!

I have one and it does exactly what I've wanted from it.

I run three monitors in 2d surround and it's marvelous, though Nvidia's surround software fails in comparison with ATI's Eyefinity software it does what I want it to do. I've really had no issues with mine except for some issues with Metro 2033 not running as optimal as I would like but it's primarily the Ukrainian's fault I assume. I run FXAA strictly enabled and I use the adaptive Vsync technology and disable most games current AA. I run BF3 at 5975X1080 at Ultra all down the board with 16X filtering and at a solid 50fps. I'm happy with it and I am excited to see how the drivers will develop on this baby.

I'm not even mad they already shat out the 690 as with this card I am content and it does what I tell it.

Mine is the EVGA Superclocked model which if I want I can pony out another 500mhz if need be.

Well, that's a big enough stamp of approval for me! Think this one's definitely gonna last at least a good solid couple of years. And yeah, I had heard from benchmarks that it was running Metro 2033 at like a solid 40 fps. Not the best, but from the sounds of it Metro 2033 chews up a lot of shit and spits it out.

Yeah, the thing is actually BETTER on power consumption and runs cooler than the previous generation of cards. It's kind of neat.
