Geforce Titan rumours.

[Kaapstad]

Why is everyone calling RetroGamerX a lucky bugger? they're only going to become cheaper. One can buy a 690 at anypoint, can one not?

What makes this afternoon such a great point to buy a 690? what am i missing....

Because he got it for a good price

@RetrogamerX I think you will enjoy your new card, they are the best all round cards I have used.

I really like the way that ALXAndy is constantly berating Nvidia... and then buys their stuff anyway, yeah you showed them real good

To be fair to Andy he does it to AMD as well. He hates them both equally which you have to respect.

Any time is a great time to buy a 690. They'll become cheaper but not because of Titanic

Going by the performance in real world terms (IE one screen 1080p) Titanic is worth about £500 tops on price to performance.

I'd be utterly devastated right now if I had

1. Sold my GPUs hoping for it to be better.
2. Paid any more than £500 for it.

I'm not biased I hate everything equally.

 

[RetrogamerX]

I've no idea. But if you can't beat them, join them.

Retro you lucky boy. Nice deal on the 690.

Thanks matt

you know full well that any of the people expressing a genuine interest in Titan is not running a single screen, or even 1080p

for those of us running proper PC resolutions and not 5 year old console resolutions, a new card that can be SLI'd to an extent not possible with any other graphics card has "value", whether or not you choose to see that

mindlessly insulting people who can afford a better PC setup than you is rather childish

You have a great price and a great card. Enjoy.

I think I believe these,

That's the resolution I use so I'm not impressed, £499 maybe but £700, no way, Think this card is for the minority 3 screen setup boys Pity I was really looking forward to this

 

[Gregster]

Greg - I would buy an Ares II mate.

Haha, good one. You moan and moan about how bad AMD drivers are and tell me to get a very expensive AMD card...Haha you funny

I don't need 3 screen resolution. I'll be very happy with my 1080p set up thank you very much

Greg your 8800GT is watercooled ? hehe you cute.

 

[RetrogamerX]

You have a great price and a great card. Enjoy.

Thanks simulatorman. I had a feeling Titan wasn't all that. I was waiting for real stats on the card and once I knew I bought the 690 that min. It comes tomorrow can't wait. Very excited Bought the Gigabyte version to match my Gigabyte board

I think the figures look about right as well. They may not be as high as some of the claims made but for a single card they are still impressive.

 

[andybird123]

I don't need 3 screen resolution. I'll be very happy with my 1080p set up thank you very much

then yeah, I'm not sure why you expressed an interest in Titan in the first place

6GB of VRAM would be somewhat wasted on 1080p, as would the potential of Tri-SLI-ing them

Because I was thinking about going 2 screens, but after this I'll wait a while. MY 690 will be good enough for me for a year or 2.

 

[Suarez7]

Hmm I don't think so man.

Titan doesn't beat them so what's the point in dropping the price?

As soon as Titan releases the 690 automatically becomes even better value for money going on £ to performance.

How do you know TITAN doesn't beat it for triple screen gaming? Have you flown into the future and seen the official benchmarks?
