    Hi all,

    I’m looking to upgrade my system’s GPU. Right now I have the 680 and the quadro 600. I’m thinking about buying one GTX690 now, followed by another one in a few months. Does that sound like a good plan? Is one 690 my powerful than a 680 and quadro 600?

    If your 680 has 4gb ram keep it

    Is this because the 3072 cores are split in 2?

    The 690 has more cores and is seen as two GPUs by Resolve, but the 680 with 4GB ram is a good card and you are likely to get even better performance than the 690 from soon to ship new GPUs so if you dont need to change this month, just wait a little longer.

    Thanks Peter (and Paul) for the responses.

    What soon to ship GPUs should I keep my eye on out there Peter?
