Nvidia Strikes Back: GeForce GTX 680 2 GB on “Kepler” Graphics Architecture

Abstract

Kepler is a codename for the new Nvidia graphics architecture that is coming to replace Fermi used in contemporary GeForce 500 family. Kepler graphics processors will be manufactured with 28 nm technological process.

The new architecture is expected to have significantly increased computational efficiency and 3-4 times higher double-precision FP performance-per-watt. Together with the promised enhanced programmability, Kepler should be more efficient for GPGPU tasks. Kepler based gaming graphics accelerators should become GeForce 600 series.
