Thats a killer price right there.Time to switch my gtx580!

saladthieves3831d ago

This?
Doesn't stand a chance against my laptop's GT230M, rocking 48 stream processors. Still going strong! XD

what do you play games on, wireframe mode O_o

Pain_Killer3831d ago

If the GTX 780 Ti indeed comes at $649 and has performance on par with R9 290X then im going with NVIDIA. Not saying AMD is not a good choice but i need downsampling support which isn't available on CCC.

Aside from that, their digital vibrance engine is a great feature. There are various small things that make GeForce cards a better experience for me.

Digital Vibrance engine??

Letros3831d ago

Increases color contrast levels, makes things look a bit more colorful even if it is inaccurate.

MadLad3831d ago

I have a 680 and the thing still tackles all the new releases without gimping on the settings.
That said, my friend is looking to SLI and really likes my card. If the 780ti does indeed hit at that price, I would gladly sell my card to my friend and grab the 780ti.

Studio-YaMi3831d ago

A noob question !

Is the 780ti better than a 780 SLI ? and if so,is the difference big or small ?

Thanks in advance !

SnakeCQC3831d ago

i bought a 670(because of its close performance to the 680) and it got pwned by hitman absolution :( Those intensive games always make me wonder; if i should bother with gpu upgrades when theres always some new game only months that will reduce me to playing at sub 40 fps.

MadLad3831d ago

Honestly, I had no issues running Hitman Absolution. Stuck at 60 with barely any dips. This was with some fair CSAA assistance as well.

Wyesvin3831d ago

If this is correct i'm definitely getting one of these. I already cancelled my ps4 preorder so that will help the payments. I'm one of those that doesn't care about exclusive games.

lonz3583831d ago

But you care about graphics and spending way more money? Just asking..

Irishguy953831d ago

Cares about FPS/Gameplay

MidnytRain3831d ago

You say that like people who are buying the PS4 don't care about graphics.

lonz3583831d ago (Edited 3831d ago )

@irishguy how would you know what he cares about? 60 fps isn't enough?

I never understood spending so much just to have good graphics, then have to upgrade every few years. Just my opinion.

webeblazing3831d ago

dont console gamers brag about gfx alot. dont yall upgrade to different consoles every couple of yrs. maybe he want more games, but than again its not about the games

SnakeCQC3831d ago

@ webeblazing its around 8+ years to a console cycle

webeblazing3831d ago

@Erudito87
its going to be less this gen and more than likely pcs today will still be able to play games for next console mp just turn down setting. pc gamers have no problems turning down gfx settings.

The stock market have been kind to me. So I'm getting both...and a new house.

Wooohoo!! 2013, best year, ever.

Back on topic...I'm dying for a G-sync monitor. Come out already!

Studio-YaMi3831d ago (Edited 3831d ago )

Respecting your choice but seriously you address that you don't care about exclusives .. what ARE exclusives anyways at the end of the day ?

Games ! and they are games that you might even wanna play and enjoy.

I am in the process of building a gaming rig,I only have a gaming laptop at the moment with a GTX780M.

That being said,I found that steam library and PC games in general lack two genres I really like a LOT,JRPGS(and mostly games that are made in Japan that don't see a PC release even if they were going to release in NA or Europe) & 3rd person action driven story games(although the was rectified this past gen with games like DMC,Castlevania & Dark souls coming to PC as well).

I'm not going to give up on buying a Playstation,at the end of the day,it's the games that counts & not the number of pixels(although I do appreciate good quality & high graphics).

webeblazing3831d ago

some people don't care about exclusive just playing games. and jrpgs been lacking period for all platforms

Kleptic3831d ago

Interested to see where this goes...considering some OC'd R9 280x's have been all over the 780's performance the last few weeks...at almost half the cost...its good to see nvidia responding...

Its all on what price the 290x drops at...$650 is still well out of a typical build budget...but if a 290x drops around the rumored <$600...and has equal or better performance to a 780ti (so far, they seem to be nearly identical)...AMD seems to be aggressively asking Nvidia where their pricing figures are coming from...

I'd love a 780, no doubt...would probably be my go to card...but with the sapphire 280x sacrificing roughly 5fps across multiple games...but at $300 less...i just couldn't see the point...of course now, after i ordered stuff, the 780 is coming down in price...so thats fantastic for me haha...

xKugo3831d ago

Really? I hadn't heard of that.
I looked up how they compared when it first came out and it was getting crushed by the 780 and Titan, but that happens with most cards. Kinda hard to believe that just overclocking made up a 25+ frames difference in performance between the two. But, I'll definitely check that out.

Kleptic3831d ago

yeah look up benchmarks of the sapphire R9 280x Toxic edition...on nearly every game averages between that and a reference 780 were within just a couple frames...and in some cases the toxic would beat the 780 by a frame or two at some resolutions...

granted...thats a reference 780 vs. a 280x OC'd pretty much to its limit...so an OC'd 780 will start to walk away again...but its still $300 less...and PLENTY for any game at 1080/60fps maxed out right now...

LAWSON723831d ago

If GTX 780 gets dropped to $500 I would buy one, but I dont see it happening.
