Nvidia Announcements: GeForce GTX 780 Ti, G-Sync, And More

[wdmfiber]

And enough of the rebadge fanboy complaints.
It should be common knowledge all modern GPU's, either NVidia or AMD are all 28nm TSCM chips. And the technology dates from late 2011. The next generation will be 20nm in 2014. TSCM branding should be on them all. And a small sticker software(drivers) by AMD/NVidia. lol...

Many foreign content Mutual Funds(Asia), are made up of a lot of TSCM shares.

The Titan has 7.09 billion transistors, vs. 4.3 billion for the 7970. Yet it only has 200 more gigaflops of processing power(4500 vs. 4300). It would be interesting to see the performance of a fully functional GK110 GPU.

You already can, it's called the Quadro K6000:

How are they even going to make this worthwhile even if it's just $100 more than the GTX 780? Double the memory? Big whoopie. How will it compete with the high-end Titan that is barely 10% faster at stock speeds and costs $1,000? Without a price drop on the GTX 780 and the 780 Ti taking its pricing place I can't see why anyone would buy it for a higher price when they can already do a small tweak on a $650 card and beat a $1,000 one.

This, is like this card was born dead, I don't see a reason to get this if it is in between the 780 and the Titan when the pricing on the 780 will drop and is well known how you can push it to match its big brother.

"double the memory" Lol...
Just "google it". There are other articles.
But in your defense Tom's really didn't give much info.

A GTX Titan is a broken Telsa K20X. There is room for more performance; if say the 780 Ti was to harnesses all 2880 processors, vs. 2688(Titan) and 2304(780). Plus nVidia could enable that last SMX unit(or 2 in the case of the 780) and/or raise the clock speed.

The Titan has 7.09 billion transistors, vs. 4.3 billion for the 7970. Yet it only has 200 more gigaflops of processing power(4500 vs. 4300). It would be interesting to see the performance of a fully functional GK110 GPU.

I would assume it would use a lot of power and generate a lot of heat.

I like how I can save $1000 dollars on it now. I mean considering that at normal price its about 4x what I spend on average for my total PC.

And is also 384 bits for that 12gb of vram.

That might be true, but I'm thinking you're just about the last person who would need one. Sooo...

A geforce 780ti only reason I can see for its existince is if it is faster than a titan or just as fast and they are going to discontinue the titan to make a faster one which still makes little since. But if it sits between the 780 and Titan then nvidia that is full blown retarded especially since the 780 galaxy hall of fame edition is the fastest single gpu out faster than the more expensive titan...

Seriously new monitors for gsync??? They should find another way for an otherwise incredible technology

 

[Roger Rogers-1382392]

GTX 780 Ti

Nice announcement.

Amusingly (to me), I predicted the GTX 780 Ti (as a 4Gb card) on a few sites last week (including this one) as my Graphics card desire.

 

[ubercake]

The G-Sync sounds incredible to me...though I cant be ditching my current monitors in response 🙁

G-Sync is just another name for v-sync (sound familiar?). G-sync is simply the equivalent of limiting a video card's refresh rate to the monitor refresh rate. This technology has been around for decades. Nvidia must be running out press releases to advertise the re-invention of a technology that has been around a while.

I think many people here completely misunderstood what g-sync is, it is like vsync, but instead of having a fixed refresh rate, the refresh rate is variable to whatever the graphics card FPS is outputting. So its not re-inventing, its refining. So instead of the gpu waiting for the monitor to refresh to release a frame (vsync), the gpu just releases its frame as it normally would with vsync off but that dictates the monitors refresh rate, so you get all the benefits of having vsync off, with no tearing.

So a GTX 780 TI ok but the G-Sync is DOA

It is? How so?

Any gamer worth is salt is running a 120/144htz screen and turns off V-sync.

G-sync targets systems that regularly dip below the 60hz threshold, and costs over $100 at the moment. When you're buying/building a system, do you spend that extra money on a better card so you never have the problems it corrects, or do you buy g-sync?

Maybe it will get life from the big spenders in the high refresh rate monitors, but its gonna take a lot of production to push that price down. The people who need this the most are the ones that are least likely to afford it.

You're funny if it was an AMD technology you would have dismissed it like your doing with Mantle!

Tearing is present on 120Hz+ monitors, but it's harder to perceive (to most) because of the quicker refresh rate.

Another article focused on G-sync indicates these G-sync monitors will operate at 144Hz. That means no tearing all the way up to 144 fps (if I understand this tech correctly). That's pretty substantial, even for we who have 120Hz+ monitors. Even smoother video with G-sync.

This monitor tech should definitely be something universal. Nvidia should cash in and license this for use everywhere.

I own AMD and Nvida and I usually lean towards Nvidia. It's nice to finally see their hand. A Ti version of the 780, G-Sync etc.. sounds great, but they need to lower their prices. My guess is if they do, it will most likely be marginal at best. The r9 290x won't sell to well if Nvidia's gtx 780 (NON Ti version) sold at $550. This is just speculation of course and I'm not very optimistic about Nvidia GPU pricing... The r9 280x will sell very well for awhile (considering what you get for $299). Who knows what will happen until it happens but I still haven't upgraded my 560ti or 720p monitor and It's nice to be a perfect candidate and consumer in the price wars!

The GTX 780Ti sits between the GTX 780 and the Titan correct? Judging from the benchmark @ 4k the 290x has a 23% performance edge over the GTX 780. Even a fully enabled GK110 would not be able to beat the 290x.

The 780Ti is nothing more than a Titan with 3GB Vram for how much ?? $700.

AMD has a real winner here

The 290x's performance was said to rival the Titan but it's benchmarks where more along the lines of "between the 780 and Titan" performance. The 780Ti's specs haven't been announced, so it actually doesn't sit anywhere yet. Any talk about performance before benchmarks is a bunch of crap. If you've read carefully you would see that I'm talking about which cards will *SELL* the most. A descent sized price cut for the 780 non Ti would sell more than the 290x. The 280x is the best value card and it will continue to sell great. (if you weren't smart enough to tell, I'm a budget gamer, not a fan boy) As for the Gtx 780Ti vs r9 290x; I don't really care about trivial flame wars pertaining to unreleased cards

Great another proprietary piece of Tech from Nvidia, don't get me wrong they make some great products, but there starting to shoot them selfs in the foot with all the high prices and limiting there consumer base with proprietary based hardware etc.

Well they have had their 3D monitors around for some time now and PhysX is also not a new addition and there doesn't seem to be any sign of bankruptcy yet so how long are we going to have to wait to see your prediction come to fruition?

It's there current trends with there high prices and rebrands etc, that will start to deminish there consumer base, that's just fact. Not many people are willing to fork out $600+ for a single video card, at least not the average gamer, not to mention if you plan on going SLI or Crossfire, then it Really gets spendy lols. An I never placed a prediction, all I said was is that there starting to shoot them selfs in the foot with all the high prices, there is no definite predicition 😛.

The money looks set to head towards the PS4 this holiday season.

Unless that GTX 780 Ti overwhelms me.

Yeah, NVidia is definitely screwing themselves with their prices. Video cards are getting so high I might as well continue to save into next year for Maxwell! Maybe the price to performance ratio will be better, but who knows.

Screwing themselves? No. Screwing customer? Might be. Ultimately nvidia is profit making company. So the primary goal is making profit as much as they can

Ha! I'm pretty sure companies that post profits are the ones that stay in business. At least that's what people tell me. I'm not so sure AMD is all that altruistic either. Their 7970 pushed the price of a flagship video card up over the $500 mark when it was first released.

Nvidia could've lowered their prices, made profit, and kept return customers. Screwing their fan base is screwing themselves.

Research and development! pffff please... That's a lame excuse, and so is "profit making company". Except that doesn't make any sense because customer retention is more cost effective than acquisition.

You can continue ignoring the obviously high prices. If you need an explanation or diagram to figure it out i'll try not to use big words next time.

I choose to buy what I can afford, and I can afford to buy Nvidia. If you want to do the same but can't then I understand your pain.
