One of the industry's most esteemed desktop graphics cards, the GTX 680, has at last received laptop equivalent, using the very same 28nm Kepler architecture. While NVIDIA currently holds the crown in the high-end GPU space, it's no secret that arch-rival AMD continues to pose a strong presence in the laptop scene.
