In the afternoon of March 22, 2012, Mr. Kwai, the General Manager of Zotac (China), answered one of the most concerned questions raised by users of NVIDIA GeForce GTX680....He confidently expressed in the press conference that Zotac will release a non reference GTX680 with frequency reaching an unprecedented 2GHz....by mid April.
I know factory overclocks are stable, but this sounds pretty intense... the binning will have to be perfect to find wafers that can hit these speeds, while being 100% stable.
On another note... if Zotac could get this thing to 2Ghz, I doubt I'd be able to keep on a clean pair of pants in it's presence, out of sheer head-smashing awesome-sauce-ness.
Really, this just makes AMD's "GHz" edition look silly.

The gigahertz barrier has been broken. Armed with a stunning 1GHz GPU based on the revolutionary GCN Architecture, the AMD GHz Edition is quite simply engineered to reign supreme.
I agree, anyone who thinks a gpu will clock at 2GHz on air is silly to say the least. LN2 is needed for 1.9 for gods sake.

It is not lost in translation as Chinese is my native language.
I have asked a moderator to move this to the Rumor section until I can dig deeper into this news. I am wondering if Mr Kwai's words might be taken out of context by some 'reporter'.
Does anybody even click the sources anymore? They say it will REACH 2GHZ.. not that it will be factory clocked at 2GHZ.
That's not an unreasonable statement to make for a non-reference board considering that, like everybody said, the world record is already 1.9.
