Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 Ti Pictured
Here's the first picture of an AIC partner-branded GeForce GTX 780 Ti graphics card, by Gigabyte in this case. The card appears to stick to NVIDIA's reference board design, which is practically indistinguishable from the standard GTX 780 and GTX TITAN, except for the special markings. Specifications of the card appear to be consistent with older leaks. Based on the 28 nm "GK110" GPU, the GeForce GTX 780 Ti features 2,880 CUDA cores, 240 TMUs, 48 ROPs, and a 384-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 3 GB of memory. Its core is clocked at 876 MHz, with a maximum GPU Boost frequency of 928 MHz. The memory is clocked on par with the GTX 770, at 7.00 GHz, churning out a stellar 336 GB/s memory bandwidth. NVIDIA is reportedly targeting a $699.99 price-point with the GTX 780 Ti, which would be $150 costlier than AMD's Radeon R9 290X.

as for your claim that nvidia is doing this to generate sales for clueless consumers, that can be said for either side, are you saying that AMD doesn't want to claim it too? so your argument doesn't hold water, it's the consumer's responsibility to do their research before doing any major purchases, and the goal of any successful company is to generate sales, is that why they are selling these reference cards stressed to max out of the box?
"AMD owns all price points from 550$ down to 250$" did you really just make that claim? this is unbelievable. Who are you?
I love it and all when people quote the MSRP prices AMD gave, but what utter non-sense, have you actually tried buying this card???? how many people actually got it at those price? I'm asking a honest question here, because one of my coworkers actually tried to get one the 290x, for one thing, hes out of luck since they're all out of stock, and another, they are selling $100-150 well above their quoted price.
In my country (and I'm sure for many countries around the world) 290x is actually more expensive than the gtx780, the 290x is selling well into $700~750 while the gtx780 is selling for around $650. So don't be going around spreading this BS that AMD is winning on price war atm.
one thing to learn from this, AMD doesn't control the prices at the moment, market does. and truthfully, not many people was actually able to grab the card since launch, there seem to be some severe quantity issues, it sounds to me AMD is just throwing a bone at the crowd that got everyone all riled up, and everyone got all nuts and crazy about but none to had for themselves. but hey, who cares, market ploys work, troll will continue to troll, whats new?
A 780 TI with G sync will blow the noisy hot 290X with AMD drivers out of the water. Nvidia still owns the elite high end.
2 R290s in Crossfire at $800 will beat this card by over 60-70% while costing only $100 more. CF scaling on R290 is 90% or more in most games. Also the shuttering is gone since there is no CF bridge. And the 4GB memory will make the two card playable at 4K. Cheers!!
and if you are investing in a pair of water blocks you are adding about $300 on top, which runs you something well above $1300 for a pair of these cards. so nope, these are not cheaper.
Both company play catch up,i suppose you didn't forget nVidia Fermi wood screw edition do you?They were "late" in the game that time.But hey,they manage to score a performance crown again later on.And for "Nvidia 6 month head start NEXT generation" of yours,do you realize first Maxwell will be on 28nm?You put this as the game of chess,why put nVidia on white and AMD on black?Ever think otherwise?Like i don't care about the fastest single card,i'm playing duo since master-slave era of X1800XL.If they toying with me,let them have it...i'm willing to pay.
One question,do you have GTX780/Titan/780Ti ?

rofl. enjoy your jet pack.
That what was said about the GTX680 when it showed... It is the circle of life my son!
;)
Come on people, please don't say ridiculous things like this. It makes us ALL look bad.
I'm also seeing arguments that have gone back and forth since the implementation of the GPU. Minds aren't going to be changed.
GK110 Titan had no competition 9 months ago and as such sold for a 1000$ because why the f*ck not, but as at least you can appreciate things move on. Now nVidia have taken their full fledged yet ageing and coming to the end of it's life GK110 chip to 700$. So despite the tears there is progress to price vs performance. PS thanks for showing up AMD.
Fact is the majority of those moaning about the price have/had no intention of buying one anyway.
Great news for AMD fans. Those overpriced cards days are over. Get your moneys, your car key and go get the performing you wanted!
There now children, happy now?!!! Now, STFU and thank both companies bringing these awesome technologies:rockout: to you.
