GTX 780 (overclocked) vs GTX 780 TI

[Na Zori]

Hello, I'm new in IT world and I was wondering, is it true that an overclocked GTX 780 can perform better than GTX 780 ti (not overclock) ?

even 780 is overclocked then also 780 Ti will be better

If I overclock GTX 780 to the max, can it be as powerful a GTX 780ti?

Not really because the 780 ti 2880 cuda cores all unlocked and the 780 has 2304 cuda cores some locked it maybe 10 percent slower

There isn't a big performance difference between an overclocked 780 and a 780Ti, not worth the price difference. The 780Ti is at best 20% faster than a stock 780, so if you get a good enough overclock on a 780, that 20% would almost disappear. But keep in mind that you could also overclock the 780Ti, and the fact that overclocking performance is not always guaranteed. The 780Ti is basically a standard 780 with a performance boost, just like any other Ti card compared to their non-Ticounterparts. But it doesn't deliver enough extra performance to justify the 40% price premium over the standard 780. Get yourself a good aftermarket 780, like the ASUS DirectCU II, EVGA ACX, or MSI Gaming
