edwin Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Hi All,Have been using the NVidia GTX 570 1gb for over a year now and its been a really good card. However I've been seriously considering upgrading to the GTX 680 2 GB. Any of you folks using this card for X-Plane as I would really appreciate absolutely 'Any' feedback. (I really want to stay with NVidia)Cheers All & G'day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kallinen Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Have a Zotac GTX580 Amp2 3gb and love it. Works great for all my sims. So the 680 should work even better. I believe Cameron has a 680 from previous post. Maybe he will get you some input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwin Posted October 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Cheers Jim. As a matter of interest how much of the 3Gb can X-Plane utilise at any one time? Ive been told theres a limitation of 1.5 Gb that the program can use & that the rest isn't used?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it does help with over all running speeds and graphics look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
