Is there any issue installing GTX680 on 64bit win7?
Evrething seems ok, cuda drivers 4.20 version 4
Board shows up at available Cuda Devices, but when I load a scene and click to show the interactive render it comes up with a cuda device error on the status bar?

Anybody else have this problem???

Search the forum and you will find a couple threads about this.
The 680 is a Cuda 4.2 card, octane uses cuda 4.0.
So octane doesn't support this card, there is a cuda 4.2 build but your 680 will preformce like a 460 (the build isn't optimised for cuda 4.2).
Second nvidia 680 cuda cores are a bit weaker then the 580, the 680 isn't very good for computing task, it's mainly good for gaming. Sorry to disappoint you.

What about other GTX 600 series cards, does anyone know if they are all going to be like that, not very good for computing?
