Our first graphics card review of the year is going to be about something special. TGT sent us their GeForce GTX 680 BEAST Low Leakage Selection. Apart from the triple slot cooler and the Low Leakage Selection chips the card features quite an impressive factory overclocking. TGT upped frequencies to 1'163 MHz with a typical boost clock of 1'228 MHz. Lets see where this card stands against the other GTX 680 we have tested.
On the following pages we will show you the
strenghts and weaknesses of the TGT GeForce GTX 680 BEAST LLS.

Technical data / Specifications
With the TGT GeForce GTX 680 BEAST LLS you get a factory overclocked
card with a close-to-reference PCB design cooled by a huge triple fan cooler. The ASIC quality
measured on our sample was 75.7 %. It's above average but it's
nothing really special.
About ASIC quality:
Looking at clock speeds we see that the GPU runs at 1'163 MHz with a
typical boost of 1'229 MHz. In comparison, the stock designed GTX 680 runs at
1'006 MHz with a typical boost of 1'058 MHz. Like most of the GTX 680 out there
no factory overclocking has been made regarding the GDDR5 memory which stays
clocked at 1'500 MHz (6'000 MHz effective) following nVidia's recommendations.
As surprising as it may sound our card was always running at a fixed frequency
of 1'241 MHz under load. Like there was no boost and the default clock speed was
1'241 MHz just like our DirectCU II Top that was always working at a fixed clock
of 1'201 MHz. We like it!

Looking at specifications, the BEAST LLS is the same card as the
GTX 680 EXO from Point Of View. The PCB seems to follows the
reference design but is slightly different. It's so close to the reference
designed PCB we had in our hand that I believe it's a newer revision of it. POV/TGT added the full number of components
to the power design unlike MSI on the
Twin Frozr OC
for exemple. Therefore you get five phases for the GPU and two for the memory.
The voltage regulation chip is the same like on the "old" reference design:
it's a
Richtek RT8802A.
TGT's graphics card also features two metal plates. The front metal sheet covers the memory chips as well as the power design area
to spread the heat in a more efficient way while the backplate is here so the
card is more stylish you know.
The cooler that keeps this card at adequate temperatures seems to have
certain certain similarities with Arctic's
Accelero Xtreme. We believe this one is being manufactured by Spire. The cooler
has been made from of a copper base plate, five 6mm heatpipes
and a lot of aluminium fins. The fan in the center measures 90 mm in diameter, while the other two
measure 80mm. It is really easy to remove the whole plastic part to clean the entire
cooling block. The left side of the plastic shield has a perfect spot for a logo,
but it was left empty. The manufacturing quality of the cooler is very good even
though the plastic part looks cheap.
TGT chose to attach the cooler with four screws to the card. We tried to move
the cooler from right to left, even applying force didn't help moving it,
which is a good sign. Also the pressure on the graphics core is very good.
The memory chips used, are made by Hynix and carry the model number
H5GQ2H24MFR-R0C. They are specified to run at 1'500 MHz (6'000 MHz effective).

Delivery
About the delivery we have to say that there is almost nothing in the box.
You will only find a manual and a disc with the driver and oc software. We would
have loved to see a DVI to VGA adapter or any other accessories.
The card ships well bolstered, that it's almost impossible that something will
be damaged during transportation.

Conclusion
General |
|
+ |
- |
This BEAST LLS from TGT has definitely been able to convince us. Thanks
to the factory overclocking the card is eight percent faster than the reference
clocked ones.
The cooling system proved to be very good too, it was noiseless in idle
and managed to keep our card cool under heavy load remaining noiseless
which is quite an achievement. Furthermore we ike the Accelero
Xtreme-like design, since it offers massive cooling performance.
We could blame POV/TGT for using a reference design PCB for such a graphics
card but we won't because they equipped all the power stages with
component and a
custom PCB design would have made the card more expensive than it is
already.
Still there are two things we would love they had been done in another
way. First of all there is the "bundle", which is almost inexistent.
There is only a manual and a driver disc, there isn't even a DVI to VGA
adapter. The second thing concerns the memory overclocking. But this is
something we criticize other manufacturers too, which offer factory
overclocked graphics cards. TGT didn't overclock the memory although it
wouldn't have been a big deal increasing the clock speed by 50 MHz. It's
not much but it would make perfect sense with such a premium product. |

Thanks to the factory overclocking the
BEAST LLS is eight percent faster than the reference clocked GTX 680.
Although there is a massive overlocking regarding the GPU it's not able
to outperform the EVGA card we tested. The reason for that lies within
the memory, since EVGA overclocks it and TGT doesn't. Still the factory
overclocking on the GPU is everything but shy. Another interesting fact,
which is related to the factory overclocking is, that our sample was
working with 1'241 MHz all the time. It appeared to not make us of the
boost feature. 1'241 MHz means that there is a factory overclocking of
183 MHz over than reference boost clock.
When it comes to the cooler, this was the best one we've ever seen, that
comes shipping with a card from the factory. After one hour of FurMark, the highest temperature
measured was
61°C with the fans locked at 30 % (noiseless) which is excellent. At 50 %
we measured 54°C max but in this case the noise level isn't good anymore. Indeed
at 50 % fan speed the cooler was as loud as the reference one. Be
careful the cooler takes three slots, make sure you have enough space.
The power consumption was on a good level too. In idle it was drawing 9
Watts less than the DCU II Top. Under load it was consuming 2 Watts more. |

We recommend this graphics card to people who
are looking for a factory overclocked GTX
680 which features a very good and silent cooler. This card is about 70 € more expensive than the cheapest reference GTX 680,
therefore you should be really sure that this is the exact card you
want. |

We gave the TGT-680-A2-2-BST-T
the almost perfect award of
4.5 out of 5 stars. |
