I don't remember saying that, but okay.Not blaming you or anything, just saying blaming AMD isn't going to lower the price of this card.
I think Microsoft and Sony have lifelong patents on both of these though.and pixie dust plus the secret sauce.
This isn't a successor to the 680, it's something different.Me: ''I'll wait till the GTX 680 drop the price a bit, maybe when a new gen will come''
Papersleeves: ''Nah, you'd be better buying THE new gen.''
At 900$?! No fucking way, I'm still aiming at the GTX 680 at this point...
People who buy it also have too much money to throw at stuff anyways.

I spent £700 on two 670's last year
Worth it
Excuse my ignorance, but isn't GTX 680 4gb sli better than one GTX 690? The 690 is sli setup so it's technically 2gb each? Or did I understand that wrong? For the same price of a 690 you can sli a 680 4gb.
Wow, I can get about 3 680's for the same price today
lol wat, where do you live? 3 gigabyte 680's here ( Sweden ) costs ~2000 USD.
I'd laugh at anyone with a 4 way SLI rig, regardless of which cards it uses. 3 extra frames of input lag is not my idea of a good time.4-way Titan SLI: US $3596
LED lights: US$ 6.99
The look on the faces of the other guys at the LAN party when they see my Über rig: Priceless

But I need two GPUs to upgrade my SLI rig.....
Lets see.....two times $899.......hmmm.......1798 US dollars!!
Thanks, Obama
I will never get the lure of enthusiast parts, but hey, whatever keeps the companies in business.
quad sli for crysis 3 dx 11 at 240 fps 3d on 3 1440p screens mi rite?
Awesome a 900 dollar piece of hardware that has no real purpose...
$900 Are you fucking kidding me? Interest gone. Clearly this being marketed to the folks buying 2 680's for their gaming rigs.
Time to ditch my 2 x 680s 4GB for two of these.
Please tell me what possible use this could have in gaming in the next say 5 years? Much less 2 of them?
I know right. I only have 2x 580s in my machine, but playing BF3 on a 120hz monitor at 120 fps, all Ultra settings, is a sight to behold.
Bulletstorm in 3d is impressive as well.
Go big or go console.

Not totally accurate, as the frame time would also be drastically reduced. But I get what you're saying. This is a portion of why going above 2 cards is silly (outside of hacking passwords and running synthetic benches, ofc).I'd laugh at anyone with a 4 way SLI rig, regardless of which cards it uses. 3 extra frames of input lag is not my idea of a good time.
Not for Dennis, he'd just invest the performance into more IQNot totally accurate, as the frame time would also be drastically reduced.
Im sure the cool kids all like throwing money about.Jealousy is an ugly thing.

But yeah, 3 or more GPUs just isn't a good idea for gaming, with either vendor. Personally, I think even 2 isn't worth it.

Isn't quad scaling also pretty shite with Nvidia these days?
Im sure the cool kids all like throwing money about.
Yes. It's atrocious. It's purely for e-peen. But e-peen is so, so, tempting. Hardware pr0n...it's awesome. Seriously though, most devs (i.e. the people that make the games that play on these things) don't test past 2-way card setups. I almost cried when I was sending twitter messages to one of the devs on BF3 and he said DICE did not have a 4-way setup in house. This is DICE...the maker of the #1 PC hardware pushing game in recent history. AKA NO ONE CARES about the 2-3% of folks that go cray with hardware - it's all up to nvidia...and they know we're nuts no matter what!
Believe whatever you want I guess. I didn't have to spend $200+ on it and it still gets decent frames.

Yeah, but when do we get to see pics of 4-way Titans in your case?Yes. It's atrocious. It's purely for e-peen. But e-peen is so, so, tempting. Hardware pr0n...it's awesome.

This is why AMD's struggles are bad for everybody.lol, people aren't jealous. If anything, they're just disappointed that consumers will probably end up justifying Nvidia's decision to raise their video card prices.
Expensive but not unreasonable! 80%+ GTX690 performance, what the heck are you guys complaining about?
I just don't understand why you would intentionally try to be misleading, what purpose does it even serve?
I would guess 780 would be a touch above the 680, say 30% or so. It is doubtful that it would outperform it as it would still be a Kepler GPU but without the crazy additions Titan is meant to have. That said it will probably be $200-300 cheaper too and the gap in performance won't be as great depending on what you do. (stuff like the much larger bandwidth matter more when doing 1600p across 2 monitors etc)So we should assume the GTX 780 won't sniff the Titan's performance?Seriously, because it ain't hard to look up GTS 250 benchmarks, is it?

You sound extremely jealous.
[Clark Gable];46770088 said:People going hungry in the streets and people tossing money around like It's going out of style. Yeah, I'd sooner drop $900 in a charity than spend it on a gpu which will last a year and a half max.
You sound extremely jealous.
lol 5GB or 6GB for a single GPU is so ridiculous outside of using it for a realtime GPU render engine.
So if I buy two 6GB VRAM Titans I will have more VRAM than most people have regular RAM in their PCs let alone the next gen consoles.
This appeals to me.
fixed
I still have a GTX 280...it's lonely down here, and poor.
