It looks like Nvidia is ready to release quite a beast to enthusiasts. That’s right, this graphics card will be more powerful than a Nvidia GTX Titan. The GTX 780 TI weighs in at 2880 shaders (compared to 2688 on the TItan), 3GB of GDDR5 RAM now clock at 7GHz, and a core clock of 876MHz with a boost clock of 928Mhz. Here are the known specifications:
| R9 290x | GTX 780 TI | GeForce GTX TITAN | GeForce GTX 780 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU | Hawaii XT | GK110 | GK110 | GK110 |
| SPs / Cuda Cores | 2816 | 2880 | 2688 | 2304 |
| TMUs | 176 | N/A | 224 | 192 |
| Core Clock (Boost) | 1000MHz | 928 MHz | 876 MHz | 902 MHz |
| Memory | 4GB GDDR5 | 3GB GDDR5 | 6GB GDDR5 | 3GB GDDR5 |
| Interface | 512-bit | 384-bit | 384-bit | 384-bit |
| Price | $550 | N/A | $999 | $650 |
| ROPs | 64 | N/A | 48 | 48 |
| Bandwidth | 300+ GB/sec | 288.4 GB/sec | 288.4 GB/sec | 288.4 GB/sec |
It’s going to be interesting to see how much of a boost this really is over a GTX Titan and AMD R9 290x, not too mention the astronomical price that will follow.

Nvidia Preparing for Slimmed Down Titan GPU?

Current rumors are putting it around the $700 mark.
Personally I don’t see it having the performance needed to truly upset the 290x. It’ll be too expensive at single card to justify (imo, and when aftermarket 290x’s hit, and since a single 290 can manage 4K) And for 4K mGPU solutions, AMD is plain better unless Nvidia gets their shit together.
Check out HardOCPs 290x crossfire review. It stomps all over 780/Titan SLI at 4K and tri-monitor setups. More importantly they even say that on the Nvidia setups they had trouble getting every game to run at 4K. Sometimes getting the desktop to run at 4K.
They have an uphill battle. And funnily part of it is on their Drivers.
Yeah, price is going to be the deal breaker here. The only way this can be somewhat competitive is if it is the same price or cheaper than the R9 290X. If it comes in at $700 then they really aren’t doing themselves a favor.
Wait, they’re making a bigger-than-titan card that costs less than a titan and you guys call it a deal breaker? The same people that bought titans will buy these. It’s all normal stuff.
We just gotta accept that instead of us buying Ferraris like we used to, we’re going to have to limit ourselves to BMWs from now on. Or at least I think that’s the sort of hardware economy they are trying to create here.
Its fine by me, so long as the BMWs we get have Ms on the back 😛
yeah only problem is we are buying BMWs at Ferrari prices
I didn’t say that it was a deal breaker. The fact remains though that AMD made a “bigger-than-titan” card that costs less than a titan already. And will cost less than this card. I’m just personally doubtful that this card will beat the 290 throughly enough to justify the price.
What’s more is if Nvidia keeps trying to push their “Only way to play 4K” campaign they need to get their shit together so that 4K displays work without shitty work arounds. Like running windowed, changing the resolution to 3840×2160, and then switching to fullscreen to keep the game from crashing.
You want car analogies, Titan is a Ford GT and AMD dropped a 290x Corvette in the market for the price of a 780 Mustang. Nvidia is rolling out the 780ti Shelby Mustang line. But it’s still just a churched up mustang.
It will definitely beat it in heat management (without any special cooling from manufacturers) and it will also have physX.
Nvidia fans will consider those benefits worth the premium.
And I agree with you on the car analogies there. The price/performance is out of this world. I was only trying to make a point about the economy they are creating.
And Karambiatos, I bought my M5 (5870) some years ago and it’s still going well. Battlefield is giving it trouble but that’s mostly because of my cpu. It was priced right if you ask me (300 euros) and I still think it’s been one of my better purchases along with the enermax psu (which unlike other psus I’ve bought has been going strong for 7/8 years now I believe).
The “Ferrari” recently appeared in the market, with the titan. Until recently it was dual cards that costed a boatload and that boatload was practically the cost of 2 cards, which made sense.
