GeForce GTX 780 Ti review





In this review we test the GeForce GTX 780 Ti. The GeForce GTX 780 Ti is NVIDIA's all new high-end graphics card based off the same chip that is the GeForce GTX Titan. However, NVIDIA probably figured, save the best for last as NVIDIA unlocked the GPU completely meaning all 2880 Shader processors are available. That combined with increased core and memory clock frequencies and nice overclock potential will make this the top 699 USD flagship product to purchase for the Christmas holiday season. So yeah, this means it is based on the GK110 revision B GPU and has an whopping 7.1 Billion transistors. That makes it a nice one of the fastest graphics cards available on the market today. We test the product with the hottest games like Metro: Last light, Battlefield 4, Medal of Honor Warfighter, Hitman Absolution and many more.

i just read the review, the 780 TI is an excellent card indeed.
but still i feel good that i purchased the gtx690 back then.
aye.


Yeah you dont need to buy anything yet if you have a 690, you will get less performance and lose more money, pointless. Still king of the hill after 19 months, quite a legendary gpu just like the 295 before it.

yeah i would go for 780 ti but money is tight atm. perhaps better to save...
p.s said that a few times as advice to others but dunno if i can hold out. perhaps best to hold off till after xmas..n try not to spend 2 much on the booze..

I will give the 780 Jetstream another chance and I PRAY that I get another 74-75% ASIC or higher and hopefully be a good clocker as my last one.

The 690 (like the 295 before it) is not a single GPU. It is not 'standing up' to 780/780Ti/Titan SLI which would be proper comparisons in that context.
Then there is the VRAM limitation which has been discussed before.
Nice card, no doubt, but too many people make these apples to oranges comparisons and even though it is technically one card, it is 2 GPUs which constitutes SLI, thus it must be compared to other SLI configurations.

I am aware of the 295's as i had them in SLI with Dual PCB and Single PCB when they were in there prime and cost £500 each.
Dont matter to me its still a single slot physical and its still expensive. You talk about SLI, even if i SLI 690's it still beats them in performance. I know its quads but its still 2 physical cards and it still costs as much. All people care about is performance and the days of stuttering with dual gpus are gone because of Hardware based frame metering. Only weakness to the 690 is 2GB ram but this only really applies to enthusiasts who use custom AA flags otherwise its fine for 90% of games atm. For a card that came out 19 months ago its still king of the hill for performance even if it is a dual card.

Great performance but wow that's alot of money...
Said the guy that once bought 2x 470s for the same price...
