The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 graphics card has finally hit the web and it's pretty damn good. Our review paints a positive picture, detailing its class-leading performance and rather lovely power-draw figures.
NVIDIA intimated to us that there would be 'plenty of stock' in the channel for launch day, so let's put the firm's bullish assertion to the test.

Pricing correct as at 14:15.
There's certainly no shortage of choice. While only available in reference form, per the review card, 12 of the listed 19 cards are showing as being in-stock, ready to buy.
£420 is the cheapest from our four listed retailers, though the card is up on pre-order for £399.99 at Aria.co.uk. The GeForce GTX 680 has a recommended price of $499.99 over the pond, so we hope to see more cards pop up at the £400 mark in the coming days. Word on the grapevine is that around 1,100 GTX 680s made it into distribution for launch day, representing reasonable availability for the premium GeForce card.
