Maybe more demanding games since new consoles are coming but still, a single 690 will eat all the new consoles combined sevenfold.

Not to mention cards back then were rather weak compared to todays tech. This is the first generation in a while a single GPU card can play any game at 1080-1200P since crysis.

With that being said they will become oputdated but not nearly as quickly as the GTX 295.

It has 111% of the Adobe RGB gamut and has among the lowest input lag of any IPS monitor on the market. Check out the review at http://www.anandtech.com/show/3754/a-new-30-contender-hp-zr30w-review

Looks like the first ever 30inch worth gaming on. Thats really exciting!

That post is 2 and a half years old lol, have they seriously not released anything new. I woud like that higher res over my 1080 but selling my 690 seems less future proof. But also it sitting on my bed seems less usefull than that. I seriously do think those monitors are overpriced though. I mean if costs more than a 690, a 3960x, basically any computer component out there. The shimians are real cheap, even though people say they are apple rejects, I would take that as a compliment as I find apple trash, no offense to egotrippin. But if I go that route i might as well get 3, but 7860x1440 would probably be the demise of a single 690.

I read somewhere that HP should be doing a refresh on their Z series soon... but even though it's over two years old it's still among the best out there and you can get one used for around $750 on eBay.

Apple rejects should be a compliment because Apple usually represents the apex of technology so being just shy of their quality guidelines means you still have an excellent product. Unfortunately, their target market isn't gamers and their products aren't cheap so I know there's a lot of resentment out there. The GTX 690 is supported with the release of Mountain Lion so it looks like some of those compatibility issues may be starting to go away.

I'd rather buy a U3011 over a ZR30W any day, but I decided to go with the crossover just for the price range and I don't regret it one bit, and honestly I went the eyefinity route and hated it when it came to gaming, way to many problems, IF I ever where to try it again it would be years from now when the bugs are ironed out, and when they have higher rez screens main streap like 1080p and have super slim bezels till then, I'd rather own a bigger high rez screen any day.

And if you were planing on doing 1440p/1600p eyefinity/surround buying 2x gtx690's was a bad purchase due to limited vram. A gtx690 is perfect for any single screen setup, and I learned my lesson with 4way xfire/sli when I had my xfire 5970s its been proven in several benches 3way sli is the best as usually the 4th barely adds much performance.

Will there ever be a 690 with 8GB vram?

 

Qu1ckset pointed a great fact.

 

690 is truly a beast and YES 2GB of vram per core is enough, but how come there is not a version of 690 with 4gb vram per core?

 

I hate the marketing scam of Nvidia's dual core GPUs.

 

My previous 590 was advertised as 3GB of vram, but it was 1.5GB to be honest.

You are the second person to comment on the advertised vram for dual gpu cards, this is nothing new and ati/amd do the same thing, its been like this since the birth of dual gpu cards.... I knew this when buying my 5970 when I was newb to computers..

And no they won't release a 8gb 690, unless you count Asus Mars III which will come with a huge price tag and only be in limited production..
Keep your fingers crossed if the release a 790 wink.gif

Man your posting this stuff in the wrong thread, post these kinda of questions in the Intel build section or ssd section, and to answer questions
For 128gb ssds go for the crucial m4, Samsung 830, or ocz vertex 4, pick what ever one has the best price.

And for ram if your just gaming there is no need for that speed of ram, it does nothing for you unless ur benching and stuff, both are good sticks pick what evers cheaper IMO

And no they won't release a 8gb 690, unless you count Asus Mars III which will come with a huge price tag and only be in limited production..
Keep your fingers crossed if the release a 790 wink.gif

 

I wonder if in USA a customer can actually sue Nvidia or Ati for wrong advertising. Afterall 2+2 is not equal to 4 in this case.

 

Anyhow. It sux that they wont release a 4GB  per core (a.k.a. 8GB) version of a 690.

 

So much power in that GPU, even better than 670 SLI, but you might hit the Vram wall evantually.

 

When I had my 590, I was playing BF3 very smoothly around 100+fps with my older 120hz monitor, but suddenly my FPS would drop around 40. I never checked it back than as I didnt know the importance of Vram, but I am sure i was hitting the 1.5GB vram barrier back than. 

 

590 was not a great GPU. a 570 SLI would easily get better results than a 590, but in 690, a 670 or 680 SLI setup is barely or exactly equal to an 690. Hence I can not understand the vram being stuck at 2.

 

Don't get me wrong guys. I DO love the 690. This was not a rant or a hate thing. Just, things could be different.
