NVIDIA launches first GeForce GPUs based on next-gen Kepler architecture

NVIDIA today launched the first GPUs based on its next-generation Kepler graphics architecture, designed to deliver dramatic gaming performance and exceptional levels of power efficiency. The result of about 1.8 million man-hours of work over five years, the Kepler architecture's first offerings bring unprecedented technical capabilities to both gaming desktops and Ultrabooks. For desktop gaming, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 GPU provides a faster, smoother and richer experience. For notebooks, the new lineup of GeForce 600M GPUs puts the "ultra" in Ultrabooks, enabling smaller, more powerful designs than were previously possible. Both are available immediately.
