The base clock speed of the GeForce GTX 680 is 1006MHz and the typical Boost clock speed is 1058MHz. The memory subsystem of the GeForce GTX 680 consists of four 64-bit memory controllers (256-bit) with 2GB of GDDR5 memory.
For those looking to save a buck, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 has the same core with some functionality disabled and lower clock speeds on the CUDA cores. To be specific this card has just 7 Streaming Multiprocessor (SMX) units, which means it has only 1,344 CUDA parallel processing cores and 112 texture units. The base clock speed of the GeForce GTX 670 is 915MHz and the typical Boost clock speed is 980MHz. The memory remains the same, so you you still have 2GB of GDDR5 video memory, running at 6,008MHz over a 256-bit memory interfaces to seal the deal.
