As we’ve seen throughout this article there is a bucket load of new technology to be found within the depths of the GTX 680. I can imagine that there a few people out there who will say that this all means nothing and that the card is not all that. What I will say here is you have to see it to believe it. The technologies all together work to take the GTX 680 to the next level pitting at the top of the graphics leaderboard.
In the next coming weeks we will be taking a look at range of cards from Nvidia’s partners and whilst from the onset some will be branded reference design cards, we have already seen that manufacturers are already coming up with their own discrete cooler designs including water cooled variants and naturally as we always see, factory overclocked and probably even superclocked versions. On top of these reviews we will be delving into the reigns of SLI and how the cards perform in two, three and four way configurations. along with how they fair against the competitors.
Until then, as promised, you can find our interview with Tom at Nvidia where he does a live demo with the on the fly overclocking and GPU boost and to top this off heres a link to our Palit GeForce GTX 680 2GB graphics card review.

Being able to play on a big screen LCD HDTV makes multi screen seem way overhyped than it should be anymore. Now you just need a good hdmi cable.
Good HDMI cable? an HDMI cable is an HDMI cable at the end of the day – its either works or it doesn't
I'll finish my statement this time, for 99% of the cables out there, the performance difference is as near makes no difference incomparable as a HDMI cable carries a digital signal (ie 0's & 1's). Thus if there was a drop in the signal the picture would go completely – the signal is either there or its not.
We've pitted a £2 cable against a £50 cable before and there was no difference between the two, the audio and picture was identical. If it was a VGA or DVI cable that I was looking at then yes i would look to get the slightly 'pricier' option but for a digital cable – I'm good.
There are some really pricey ones that use gold wiring instead of copper, but the performance difference is negligible like you said.
