The GTX 680 only has one HDMI connection
Not always appreciably faster than competing AMD card. Blocks an expansion slot. Requires a hefty power supply
Expensive (Although Priced aggresively)
Additional Considerations for Overclockers
Still pricey
Less onboard memory than comparable AMD cards
Expensive
Dynamic OC can't be turned off
Manual overclocking more complicated than before
Noisy in 3D
Voltage controller has no software voltage control neither monitoring
