Waterblock is in works too, layout is completely different so it needs a new design, on top of that the PCB is huge.

BTW, new waterblock design will be much less restrictive than previous ones.

Have faith, There is no way they would waste all this effort making the gtx680 Classified without voltage control. Maybe the Evga crew can work miracles

I wish I could just buy a 680 period. Hoping 670's bring more 680's into production.

From what I've seen, it's about 90 EU more for the 4GB reference model. And then the $75-100 extra for being a Classified. This is going to be a tough sell (680 4GB's in general.. but especially non-reference models with the added price), as you'll definitely need SLI to push over 2GB of VRAM at 60+ FPS. And even then, you're talking insane resolutions (more than 5760x1080) to hit 3GB of VRAM.

However, if I was solely interesting in gaming with a GPU, this would be the card I'd get.

This looks really awesome, in some ways not as awesome as the GTX 580 classy since it just looked more menacing, but the white color scheme here is still cool.
