Well it only has 16 ROPs ...


Meaningless statement. A 680gtx has less ROP's than a 580gtx, yet it's a third more powerful.

Hummmmmm...

GTX 580: 48 ROPs @ 772MHz
GTX 680: 32 ROPs @ 1006MHz *1058MHz boost*

We are talking here about 32 vs 48 with a big increase in clock for the 32... in any case the 48 is less than 5% faster than the 32... overkill for 1080p in both cases.

Now 16 vs 32 with the first running with 53Mhz more clock... seems like the 16 is really a bottleneck if you ask me for 1080p games.
