As far as nForce 680i SLI's go, the XFX performs a bit better, with a lower latency as well, even when running our "normal" 3-3-3-9-18-1T memory timings.

Everest tells a slightly different tale, with the Inno3D beating the XFX on all accounts, although not by much. The XFX seems to almost equal the cheaper EVGA nForce 680i LT SLI board instead.
