Thread Starter 
So i know i just got my other 580 !

but i was thinking of changing like trading or exchange will not pay more to buy a new card

Like i trade or sell my GTX 580s for a single GTX 680 ?

yes/no

not worth it

pointless

what do u guys think XD

Might be worth saving some money and wait until the 700 series comes out. That's what I'm going to do.

SLI 580's are a bit more powerful than a single 680. (while you may have less vram, it's still a heck of a gpu and not worth it.
