When the GTX 680 was released, no one had any doubt that a dual-GPU version was in the pipeline. The question left in everyone's mind was what kind of sacrifice in terms of performance and feature would be needed to cram two Kepler GPU's onto one PCB. Traditionally, a dual-GPU card often has its clock speed lowered and a few processing units disabled in order to meet the power and heat requirements. With the GTX 590, NVIDIA packed two fully functional GF110 GPUs but had to dial down the clock speed; each GPU was significantly lower than they would be on a GTX 580.
