Going to buy one, but I'm waiting for the 6gb versions. Anyone here think they will hit the market before the game bundle ends?
Most likely tomorrow afternoon sometime, but you never know.
The performance crown is no longer up for debate, this thing will distance itself nicely for being on the same node.
GIbbo @ UK OC is saying 1300mhz on stock cooler is possible, and it OCs much better than Titan due to something he cannot talk about until tomorrow.
Maybe $649 is in order......come on NV, no $699!
GeForce GTX 780 Ti Power Balancing for overclockers
NVIDIA equipped its GTX 780 Ti with a new feature called Power Balancing. Without this feature power drawn from: 6-pin power connector, 8-pin power connector and PCI Express interface would be balanced across these three sources respectively depending on the current load. However if user overclocks the card power delivery becomes unbalanced, thus card draws more power from one source than the others. To fix this problem NVIDIA came up with an idea of Power Balancing. You probably see where this is going. With this feature enabled GPU can steer the power from one input to another. This will improve overclocking capabilities in comparison to GTX 780 or the TITAN.

Is there a given time when the NDA lifts, or when they will appear in stock?

"To fix this problem NVIDIA came up with an idea of Power Balancing."
so they screwed up on the $650 -$1000 cards and then fixed it , then call it a feature?
I'm excited to finally see the official numbers on this. The last few weeks have been fun in the GPU space, with all the back/forth. If this is the final hurrah for this gen for Nvidia, I'm curious if this is going to have their "all" in it.
The bottom one was mine. See that ugly pen mark I put on it?
So what are you thinking price wise, $649.99 or $699.99 for the 780ti? Are you going to be going SLI with them? I probably won't get one because last week I found out I am going to be a Dad.
the bottom one was your card, no I don't see the pen mark, you messing with me?
Not sure about Sli yet. I think I would like to but that is a lot of money that I'm not sure I want to spend again. I only went Sli with 780's for educational purposes. I do it every gen to see how the tech progresses. I can honestly say that I'm very impressed.
Congrats on being a dad, I got #2 in the oven right now. #1 just got out of diapers so I'll be getting about a 6 month break before I have to start doing that again. =) Good luck.
Expecting twins?, WOW....good luck with 3 kids under what will it be 3?...Jesus, your poor wife!
Noise levels are on par with the R9 290X under load.

Negative. Not even close by a mile. I posted the video in my post above.
So,the decibels measured in the article are not true then?? They state 41 against 43 decibels. Must be a typo then.
