I'd like to see them release a 7980 (single GPU card competing against the Titan).

Malta sounds a lot better than "titan" no...much more style etc 🙂 really what's with AMD's name scheme. lets have something a little more adventurous no? p.s never been to Malta, isnt it the home of the Knights Hospitaller?

Oh yes we do! 🤓 Unfortunately Titans price tag is WAY out of my reach, so maybe AMD will do something really nice for a reasonable price.

Why thanks (I live in Malta) kinda surprised they even know this country exists, maybe there's a Maltese engineer working at AMD? It used to be until it was lost to the French in the 1790s... and the UK a few years later (nobody liked the French at the time xD), now it's a republic.

Let's see how it performs. The Titan looks hard to beat with a current generation AMD single GPU solution. But if priced right a dual GPU card may outsell the Titan.

Like a new 5970 almost. They coulda done that to start with IMO, down-clock a pair of cherry-picked 7970 chips (for low voltage) and stick 'em on a 300 or 375W board, with 6+8 or 2 x 8 pin PCIe power connectors. 6GB VRAM, that woulda been a killer card a year ago.

Me too and at reasonable price - not that nvidia joke, i mean Titan :P This leaked Sapphire chart with 2304 cores at 1225Mhz could do the trick. http://www.vortez.net/index.php?ct=news&action=file&id=1946

Two 7970 would easily beat titan. but titan is a single gpu this is dual so its not on the same page.

Yo Hilbert, I think "Radeon HD 7790 Rumors" is supposed to be 7970.

Malta, NY is a location of a Globalfoundries fab that runs a 28 nm process for AMD, Qualcomm, and others

We already have 1000Mhz 7970... There was a 6790 as well and considering this quote

This would be a mid-range segment product with performance close to the HD 7870.

I think you are confused. As I recall a lot of people got 6790 and 6970 confused as well.

Indeed. nVidia can also release a Dual GPU Titan and then AMD still got nothing to compete with ^^

And that would cost $2400 most likely. :banana:

Nvidia cannot and will not release a dual GPU titan. They would have to cut down both the GPUs on it, which doesn't really make it Titan anymore. Titan is just a scaled up 680. That's it. If you cut it down, then you just have another 690.
