This is yet another instance of the newest high-end NVIDIA graphics card making the news. Not that I can blame it after this.
And by “this” I don't mean the teaser trailer for EVGA's custom-made GeForce GTX 700 series cooler, though that one was a nice find too. After all, it means that the GT... |

A short while ago, it came to light that a Reddit user posted a BIOS that could, presumably, upgrade a GeForce GTX 680 to a GeForce GTX 770 graphics card.

Flashing BIOSes isn't something that graphics cards makers like to promote, because each upgraded graphics card means one less new adapter bought and, thus, less money for said companies. That doesn't mean the options don't make themselves known though. Case in point, the GeForce GTX 770 graphics c... |

NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 680 was the ruler of the single-GPU add-in-board market for a while, but the AMD Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition and custom-made versions have hurled the title of strongest graphics card into uncertainty.

Unlike Sparkle, Point of View actually made some modifications to the GeForce GTX 680 before launching the GTX 680 EXO.
