I am wanting to change my GTX 470 to GTX 680, but it depends on the update of the Octane Render.
Octane's Team have a prediction of improvement in the performance of GTX 680?

No, it is hard to predict how well Octane will eventually perform on the Kepler cards. Various sources on the internet claim Kepler is more optimized for gaming, and less for general computing. We need some time to figure out how to run Octane efficiently on these new cards.

This is terrible! This will only force the Refractive Software team to work faster and harder than ever!
Nvidia needs to give better support to solve these performance problems!
The Iray from Mental Images (loses badly to Octane) works well on a GTX 680? I doubt it!
Soon they will have to do something, I hope! :o
