NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 vs NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 sit within a few percent of each other on our index. Treat them as equivalent in raw performance and decide on price, power draw and — for graphics cards — video memory instead.
| Specification | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 |

| Memory type | GDDR5 | GDDR5 |
| Memory bus | 256-bit | 256-bit |
| Release year | 2013 (better) | 2012 |
| Board power | 230 W | 195 W (better) |
| Suggested PSU | 550 W | 550 W |
| Hardware ray tracing | No | No |
| Upscaling support | Not recorded | Not recorded |
| DirectX | 12 | 12 |
Green marks the stronger figure for that row only — for power draw and PSU requirement, lower is treated as better. Performance indexes are CanMyPcPlay estimates; read how they are derived.
Which should you pick?
- Check video memory, not just speed. A faster card with less VRAM can perform worse in recent titles at high texture settings.
- Check power and clearance. Confirm your PSU and case can take the card — the build checker does this.
- Upscaling support differs. DLSS is NVIDIA-only; FSR and XeSS run more broadly.
