    Hey does anyone know how good the Gainward GeForce® GTX 680 Phantom 4GB is I can hopefully get one at a really good price but cant find any proper reviews on it.

    Or is it better to just get a stock 680 or 7970?

    I can get all of them around the same price

    Thanks

    If running in single a 680 would be better, however there are 7970x2 (A single card with two tahiti chips) variants which can be better than a 690.

    You dont need the 4GB version unless you are running on 3 monitors.Get the
    Gainward Phantom 2GB, if you already havent got something.Or the MSI Twin Frozr III.
    If you mean to OC get the MSI one.
