Nvidia GTX690 query

[Glen Orpheus]

I'm just after finding out what difference there is in gtx690 cards from different manufacturers other than the very varied prices.
Your opinions and knowledge will be gratefully received.
Thanx in advance.

The more expensive ones could possibly you a high grade of components or a better warranty.

690?
No...
All cards are identical They're all made by Nvidia themselves, then companies like Asus just box them up with accessories and sell them on.

They may offer different warranties, but I expect they'll be pretty similar.
I'd just get the cheapest...
Although you'd probably be better off with SLI 670s and save like £200 at the same time.

thanx, that's exactly what i needed to know.

not really interested in 2 x 670's or any other card combo's, as i'm after a single card with 3 screen support, low noise and low heat output without having to mod the card with an external water cooler.etc.

A single 670 or 680 fits that too. What are your goals with this ie what games will you be playing and expected frame rate, monitor res etc.

You may not even need a 690.

well im not fan or something but as tom said in review 7990 from power color beats 690 and u might find one for 800pounds i gues maybe it will interest you if your fan of nvidia then i probably offer 680 (some custom one) for oc or something as you wish even if u use 32" with 2540x1440 you might find 680 with 4maybe 6k memory well it depends how you gonna be using that card gl m8

There are NO difference apart from whats in the box and warranty.

690 is a very good card but 3 screen support? Please tell me not for gaming?

i´d get a evga card they´ve got a great customer service

Couldnt have said it better. EVGA all the way. Even if it costs a little more. If something goes wrong their RMA policy is stellar.
