Asus 680 good card?

probably the same as every other 680, but with better cooling.
 
Kind if pricey, do you specifically need the 4GB version?
 
I've got their vanilla 2GB card and it overclocks by 200mhz (400mhz on memory) in 10 seconds with no additional cooling or tweaks needed. This one looks to have better cooling than mine.

Overclocking (gtx 6xx) is hit and miss and being you can't touch the voltage it's seemingly a real lottery because many are close to the limit.

This is one of the reasons I made the switch to 7970 (after owning a 670 for some time). Voltage control just allows for so much more headroom if you've got adequate cooling. The 670 DCUII version was a beautiful card, and build quality was superb, but I wasn't getting the core overclocks that I was hoping to get, although memory OC'ed through the roof on mine.
 
thanks. so what you guys are saying is there is no difference between this and the other 680s?!
