NVIDIA outs GeForce GTX 670 GPU: it's Kepler without the mortgage

NVIDIA outs GeForce GTX 670 GPU: it's Kepler without the mortgage

NVIDIA has just unveiled the GeForce GTX 670 graphics card. The company aims to bring Kepler to gamers who don't have off-shore bank accounts, with a price tag of $399 (or £329 in the UK, and €329 in Europe). What sacrifices will be made to reach that bracket, compared to the flagship GTX 680. A loss of 192 CUDA cores, for starters, plus a slightly slower 915MHz base clock speed, which will no doubt have an impact on benchmarks.
Nevertheless, you'll still get the same 28nm chip architecture and 2GB of DDR5 RAM, along with NVIDIA's GPU Boost technology that autonomously overclocks the processor to make use of available headroom.
