NVIDIA Shows GeForce GTX 690 -- Combined Design Card Includes Globe's Quickest Gaming Performance With Smooth, Sexy Design
NVIDIA today declared the GeForce® GTX 690, the fastest consumer style card1 -- with a strong industrial style to match.
Powered by combined Kepler™ architecture-based GeForce GPUs, the GTX 690 is very carefully developed -- within and out -- to produce the most enhanced, elegant and smooth PC game enjoying experience possible.
The surprise statement was created by NVIDIA CEO and co-founder Jen-Hsun Huang during his keynote address at the NVIDIA Game Celebration in Shanghai, which is being joined by more than 6,000 players from across China.
Engineered to reach a new tolerance in game enjoying performance, the GTX 690 also looks the part. Its array of innovative technologies is associated by sleek materials that promote the exotic style of the cards, including:
An exterior shape created from trivalent chromium-plated metal, providing fantastic strength and durability
A fan housing created from a thixomolded magnesium metal, which offers fantastic warm dissipation and shake dampening
High-efficiency energy delivery with less resistance, lower energy and less warm generated using a 10-phase, heavy-duty energy with a 10-layer, two-ounce birdwatcher printed circuit board
Efficient cooling using combined vapor pockets, a nickel-plated finstack and center-mounted axial fan with enhanced fin pitch and air entry angles
Low-profile components and ducted baseplate programs for maximum circulation, reducing disturbance and improving acoustic quality
The GTX 690 is operated by a total of 3,072 NVIDIA CUDA® cores, all working to produce awesome game enjoying performance for ultimate game enjoying arrangements. Suitable for the discerning player and ultra-high-resolution, multimonitor NVIDIA Surround™ adjustments, the GTX 690 provides close to double the shape rates of the closest single GPU product, the GTX 680. Plus, it is more energy effective and less noisy when compared to techniques equipped with two GTX 680 cards2 running in NVIDIA SLI® settings.
"The GTX 690 is truly a perform of art -- magnificent on the outside with awesome performance on the within," said Mark Kelleher, mature v. p. of GPU technological innovation at NVIDIA. "Gamers will really like enjoying on several displays at great solutions with all the eye sweets switched on. And they'll appreciate displaying their buddies how wonderful the cards look within their techniques."
The GTX 690 video cards is developed using GeForce GPUs according to NVIDIA's 28-nanometer Kepler structure, following the release overdue last 30 days of the GTX 680.

NVIDIA NASDAQ: NVDA) awakened the world to computer graphics when it invented the GPU in 1999. Today, its processors power a broad range of products from smartphones to supercomputers. NVIDIA's mobile processors are used in cell phones, tablets and auto infotainment systems. PC gamers rely on GPUs to enjoy spectacularly immersive worlds. Professionals use them to create 3D graphics and visual effects in movies and to design everything from golf clubs to jumbo jets. And researchers utilize GPUs to advance the frontiers of science with high performance computing. The company has more than 4,500 patents issued, allowed or filed, including ones covering ideas essential to modern computing. For more information, see www.nvidia.com.(1) Examining was performing evaluating the GeForce GTX 690 compared to GTX 680, operating at a quality of 2,500 x 1,600. Car owner edition used was 301.10. In the Paradise standard, with 4xAA/16xAF configurations, GTX 690 obtained 58.9 fps while the GTX 680 obtained 31.1 fps. For Crysis 2 Extra, the GTX 690 obtained 57.8 fps while the GTX 680 obtained 32.3 fps. In Dust 3, with 8xAA/16xAF, the GTX 690 obtained 111.2 fps, while the GTX 680 obtained 62.3 fps. For efficiency, a higher variety is better.
(2) GTX 690 sound statistic was 47 dB compared to 51 dB for the GTX 680 SLI. For sound testing, a lower variety is better.
