Great 5% increase over the 780ti with a gazzillion gigs of vram for the snobs to cream over for a nifty price of $1000+ dollars. No thank you I'll pass. But then again people on these forums want their 12 gigs of vram to future proof... Well here's your chance. LOL

I doubt it. TiTi(LOL) or so called Black Edition would have to come from Nvidia itself.

You let your AIB's earn their money, but you want media thunder for yourself ("Nvidia unleashes bla-bla")

Maybe its a higher tdp version of the 780ti with 6gb of vram onboard, a 300w tdp card wouldn't bother many people assuming the card has stock clocks to the heavens.

Interesting... Even if it is overclocked 780TI, I think it is pretty much "ultra enthusiast" product designed to milk them late in product cycle.


The rest are waiting because of the following: on 40nm, GTX580 had 512 shaders (double pumped, but still, area is limited). On 28nm, GTX780TI has 2880 shaders.
Even if scaling is borked on 20/16nm gen as rumored, how many shaders big/small Maxwell will have? 3k for small, 5k for big?


Now that AMD has big chip and will produce it's derivatives on 20nm, buying "ultra enthusiast" part so late is bound to end up bad?

A dual GK110 would be fun to read reviews about.

Won't be a 6GB 780ti. Nvidia has told AIBs they can't make such a card.

Of course it won't be. Such a card would actually make sense, and they realize this so they banned it.

More product on the market can only be good!

My prediction is Maxwell is much further along than some seem to think, but is still far enough away where a new card may attract an audience.

Jacob from Evga claims it isn't a dual gpu, Groove says a 6gb 780ti can never be so a Titan rehack or Maxwell?The classified 780ti has already been confirmed .............

Jacob is awesome, but something tells me he isn't awesome enough to be the one to leak a new node launch :p

I think they banned custom 6gb models, but if this is an 'official' Nvidia card with 6gb of ram it would make sense.

Seems the interwebs are leaning towards Titan "Black Edition", or "Ultra", etc.

Makes sense....2x8-pin, up to 12GB graphics.....might need to update those 4K reviews!

The Softpedia reporter says that he was tipped back in September, at a closed door meeting with Nvidia reps during IFA2013, that “we know reviewers will say it's awesome but too expensive, but we expect that because those 1-2% who the card is aimed at will buy it anyway, because money is just no issue for them”.

http://hexus.net/tech/news/graphics/62917-nvidia-geforce-gtx-titan-black-edition-pictured/

This also seems to make sense, because reviewers were getting leaks about a BE "780" with 6/12GB of VRAM a few weeks ago. Unless they have announced this card and I don't know about it yet.

http://n4g.com/news/1385307/gtx-780...ill-come-in-6gb-12gb-and-alleged-no-tdp-limit

Sources have just leaked the existence of the rumored GTX 780 Ti Ghz Edition and the fact that it will ship with a Black Reference Cooler as its Unique Identifier. The GTX 780 Ti Ghz Edition will ship in 6GB and possibly 12 GB variants. Some sources also allege that it has no TDP Limit. (NVIDIA, PC)

it would have to be tremendous in order to battle the rumored dual 290X (Vesuvius)

You cant put 2x Hawaii XT on a board that AIBs will sell. That rumour got started because Charlie saw the name months ago in the driver log, but most believe it could have only happened on 20nm as originally planned. But that could have its own thread......?

Maybe the Titan refresh is real, and this time they allowed custom coolers.

I really hope so. There's no way the price will be worth the performance (for gaming anyways), but I got stuck with a real dog of a 780ti, and I would love to step up and get rid of it.

Well, the cooler is black, and the Titan refresh is the Black Edition...and if this a new GPU...then yeah it is probably a full GK110 with higher than 780Ti clocks with 6GB of RAM.
