As the title says, is a 680 still good? I mean, I can get one like this for about the same price as a 750Ti (Portuguese prices  <_<), 160€.

It is better than a 750ti, yes. Possibly better than a 960, but I wouldn't count on it.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

A 680 is still more then worthy of todays games. It can still play GTA V and decent settings along with other setttings.

Wayyyyyy better than a 750ti. If you can get it for that price, no question, go for it.

Its a good card comparable to a 960. Would not sped 160 euros on it but that's just me

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

yeah m8.

GTX 770 uses same graphics chip as 680, so obviously better than 750 Ti.

And GTX 770 is still better than GTX 960, sooooo.

 

My friend still has one and maxes out pretty much all games at 1080p (only rarely he needs to turn down extreme settings, it's still a great card)

I'm still running a 770 in AAA titles. The 680 is a little weaker but not by a huge amount. If you got a good deal I'd go for it.

the 680 performs worse than the 770, it's clocked lower.

It's still damn good, but you have to note these cards got pretty warm(correct me if I'm wrong) but it's not like GTX 970 performance or anything.  For the price, it's great!

I'm playing my Xbone on 3 LG Curved monitors-No one ever

Long story short: Get it, OC it, you'll have more than double of the 750 Ti's Perf.

A 770 is 5-10% faster than a 960, so chances are most 680's could overclock to that level. I'd estimate it's on par with a 960 at stock.

No comparison, a 680 rapes a 750 ti, only thing that may concern some people are some features like Shield or Gamestream, but i'm guessing you don't care for those anyway.
