Fairlady-z So its going to be 700-800 dollar single GTX680? Since the lightning is 600 bucks, and considering that this is a specialty block it is going to have a premium price. Hmm not sure if id not just get a 690 at that point.

I myself am quite happy with the fact that ekwb will be releasing this block. I am the proud owner of 2 of these gpu's.But just to put your statement in perspective (i only know prices in € so i can only guess what it will be in usd) you are talking about 1 690 against 1 680lght. you are right that its a lot of money for 1 gpu, but you are forgetting the fact that a waterblock for 690's are premium-priced as well. with blocks included in the price you are talking about 750 vs 1250 usd. thus your arguments about buying a 690 for more bang for buck are quite invalid.grtz
