I'll cross that bridge when it comes. If the bug is there I'll just physically move the card to the 2X slot, leave the 3X slot unused and use the other SATA ports. I only have two hard drives and one DVD which I never use anyway.As I've said, that bug affects/can affect both the Gigabyte Windforce 3x GTX 670 and 680. But only in combination with Z77 motherboards and Ivybridge (When PCI-E 3.0 are utilized).
I spent some time on the Gigabyte forums and the only threads I saw revolved around the 670 cards. Hopefully it's lesser in the 680 series.
I wonder if down clocking the card some would help the problem. I do have Z77 and I do have a 3770K
I pray it just works fine. I just had to RMA a MSI Twin Frozr 7950 because it wouldn't run any 3D app for more than a few moments so maybe I'll get lucky on this Gigabyte card.
