ZOTAC Working On a GTX 680 at 2 GHz GPU ?

Source in english here:
http://www.techpowerup.com/162935/ZOTAC-…lock-Speed.html

Speaking at a conference of AIC partners, ZOTAC (China) General Manager Mr. Kwai claimed that his company was working on a "Godly" GeForce GTX 680 non-reference design graphics card, with 2 GHz core clock speed. The card will be designed to demonstrate ZOTAC's engineering potential with non-reference designs. It will be ready by mid-April, 2012. Then again, there could be a catch. ZOTAC China has, in the past, designed certain bleeding-edge graphics cards exclusively for the Chinese market, which never made it to Europe and the US. ZOTAC is an NVIDIA-exclusive brand backed by OEM Goliath PC Partner, which also holds AMD-exclusive brand Sapphire Technology.

You should have seen my eyes when I read 2 GHz! It's a wonder that they're still where they should be!

I mean ... hell ... if this really is the potential of this card, then NVIDIA did an aboslutely awesome job!

Zotac has been releasing extreme cards on the chinese market for a while now, but those never make it to the US or EU.

Example:

GTX580



GTX560 Ti



GTX260



Dual GTS250



Dual GTX460

Yeah I know this. But 2 GHz as default for a card that normally clocks at 1 GHz ... This is kind of another league ...
