I understood Jason had a cuda 4.1 multi beam app he was testing, maybe it just needs a polish and can be released fairly soon?

The currently released x41g_cuda32 does work on Kepler, so no rush to get something new out.
Jason intends to put out a more targetted CUDA 4.1 app in due course.

Richard Haselgrove:
Though he told me that 'in due course' perhaps depends on when cuda 4.2 is released - and he didn't expect that to be available for public distribution until the GPU Technical Conference, May 14-17 in San Jose.

Odd, I haven't seen anything about 4.2 in the usual places, but an NVIDIA employee has posted links to a 4.2 RC: http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=225731

glennaxl:
Any preliminary benchmark numbers?

Pizzadude:
With the current generation of Seti apps the GTX680 is about the same as the GTX580 - however the clever bit is that the GTX680 achieves this whilst consuming 20% less power, good news if you live in the UK where electric prices have shot up in recent years.  Perhaps the next generation of apps will squeeze a little more performance from this baby.
