The new edition ups video memory to a 4GB GDDR5, which is twice the previous allotment. It updates DirectCU II thermal design with new SSU-shaped heatpipes, and offers the stability, longevity, and enhanced overclocking of ASUS DIGI+ VRM and Super Alloy Power. The card includes the GPU Tweak utility and game Assasin’s Creed III is bundled in. The redesign signifies a move by ASUS towards high-end cards with 4GB GDDR5.
Vinay Shetty, Country Head – Component Business, ASUS (India), said, “The redesigned ASUS GeForce GTX 680 DirectCU II doubles memory to 4GB and its redesigned cooler employs SSU-shaped heat pipes for improved dissipation.
