Is it my turn now? I'm going to do you a favor and save you the embarrassment of showing crossfire frame times unless you really want to see it.

No one is disputing that CF has issues, so go ahead and show us what we already know and already seen.

totally agree. 13% voted $400 or less. I mean what kind of dream world are you guys living in?

I personally voted 450$,but even those 13% guys are right on their own logic.A 780 of $649 is only 16-20% faster(techspot review of gtx 780) than over a year old 400$ 7970 with 4 latest blockbuster games for free.So it's not bolt from blue that 13% voted 400$ or less.The whole pricing policy of nvidia is rubbish and they are getting away with it coz of **///
for an ex.-
“Even we were surprised just how popular the GeForce GTX Titan was and still is. Titan sold a lot more than the GTX 690, for example. It's still selling very well,” said Ben Berraondo, the senior PR manager for GeForce at Nvidia,

Looks like people are speaking with their wallets - the 780s are selling out faster than NVIDIA can make them! :awe:

Well I bought one! But they're all in stock at newegg and tigerdirect? :confused: Not that I care about who's buying them, it's just silicon to me. ;)

Newegg/Nvidia hard launched with 9 models at newegg and they are not all still in stock. It seems they had hundreds or more at launch. Newegg business showed 20+ for all models for a time. With a max of two(per sale). So there could be thousands, it's impossible to know. Other than the GK110 has been in production for almost a year, so plenty of time to grow 780 candidates.

At EVGA's home site, there are 4 version gtx780's available, 3 models are sold out.

I was mostly being facetious in response to his statement "the 780s are selling out faster than NVIDIA can make them" since they clearly aren't sold out - but you are correct, an item being in stock or out of stock isn't really indicative of whether it's a popular seller unless you have access to full sales data and quantities. The 690s were sold out instantly basically but then again, there was little stock at launch...it's hard to judge such things without having full data. 7990s were basically sold out instantly too but I highly suspect quantities were miniscule.

So pretty much, no one here knows what the hell is going on, but that won't stop anyone from trolling with grand statements about X/Y card selling or not selling. Then again, who cares really... It's just silicon, it shouldn't really bolster anyone's self-esteem to see X or Y card sell or not sell. Shrug.

Anyway, I personally bought a reference Asus model. I may actually not open the box at all and return it in favor of an aftermarket card, though, after seeing the GTX 780 WF3 benchmarks. Looks like a killer card.

I have no idea, why you need to cite the obvious. This is a discussion forum. We discuss these topics.

Oh, okay. After seeing 20 posts trolling about how "poorly" the GTX 780 is selling in the reviews thread (which I don't agree with at ALL, by the way), I think the entire thing is ridiculous. But, if you feel it's a valid discussion point when nobody knows what the hell is going on, and nobody has complete data, more power to you. ;)

This would be a valid discussion with concrete data. But with speculation on top of speculation, it's mostly worthless with people on both sides trolling about it.

Well I agree , we don't know. Other than there were a good amount of versions/models launched. Gigabyte, MSI, Galaxy, EVGA, Asus in USA, and more other places.

I own a bunch of Nvidia stock, so GTX 780 sell through directly impacts me. I also don't want to see the high end GPU market die for personal reasons, as I am an enthusiast.

Those that picked $550 or under are dreaming.

There's absolutely no reason for nvidia to price it's high end consumer-grade card $150 more MSRP than it's last two generations' launch MSRP's.

Video card pricing is well out of hand, regardless of the "technology" they put in them. At $649 your wallet is getting raped for no valid reason.

He voted for 750 dollars in the poll....I am shocked that people want to pay that much for a 780....
