Well guys, a bit of bad news.It seems I won't be getting a ASUS DC II 680 after all,it will be a reference one(They said DC II is in very short supply ). I have a ASUS DC II 580 already.What do u guys think about the purchase?Mark u have spent quite a time with the reference 680 already,is the noise and heat manageable during low to medium overclocks?

Don't worry about it. Noise is much lower than a reference GTX 580.

Who is the "they"? Your work? Why are you not getting a T10 this month instead? For programming, right?

They mean ASUS guys
I currently work on quadro 5000.We have Tesla for our datacenters.They plan to upgrade to the new quadro Kepler when available.

So the GTX 680 you are getting is for gaming? T10 is available later this month, i believe.

The reference GTX 680 is very decent and the fan is quieter than the reference GTX 580's.

Yup its for gaming.Here it comes

So now inquiring minds want to know ..
----What do you think?

Congrats, it's a very nice card.

Thank you.
Actually Diablo 3 is holding me to install this card,I gotta find time.damn addiction

You certainly won't need it for Diablo III

How is the game treating you as far as the original server issues it had? i am guessing that you like the game.

Would 56K Dial-up qualify as an always-on connection?

I am having a blast I only had one occurrence of connection outage.There is very little data movement but u need a good ping.My ping is currently 254ms.
