GALAXY Achieves World Record With GeForce GTX 780 Ti HOF V20

They are made for benching and the guys who competed at GOC.

I doubt very much this will ever see the light as a commercial product. It cant pass green light no way. Like 780 ti Lightning. I will ask though.

To be honest its massively over engineered for anything less than LN2.

I know, I am going to go sub zero in May when my university closes for the summer and I can use all the free LN2 I want! This card and the KPE really beg for LN2/DICE.

Too bad about green light though, I feared that may be the case.

Edit: Thanks guys, it was fun. I would have loved to get faster RAM for the SuperPi and HWBOT Prime stages (3rd was XTU benchmark) but I am happy with #5.
 
They work on the basis that a large % of their customer base are ignorant to it. Seems to work for them. Although that % grows smaller by the minute, they still make the better rounded solution IMO. The ref 780ti is still a cracking card and great overclocker. It's just wrapped in cotton wool and sold as as low power consumption and unbreakable. Even the Classified is hampered

If there were no greenlight issues and they made say, 1000 pieces, how many do you reckon would sell at a given price? Like £800?

Theoretically these companies save a certain % of their advertising budget by getting WRs but I wonder if these restricted cards could ever be profitable in the open market.
 
lol, that would go down well with some. Well people paid for the Classifieds before realising there were still OCP issues. I don't think I would pay that much over the odds for the pleasure of overclocking it. I push my reference cards, but I bought them to game on. I wouldn't of paid much more for the Classifieds, and in fact I did order them and cancel because I realised then, for me it wasn't worth it (considering the reference cards clock so well) Wouldn't mind just the one though.

So you know the answer to that :D

Of course but a complete nightmare for me, as I will need a bigger case as well. There is no room between bottom rad and PSU as it is, let alone adding a bigger PSU :(

Something I will do but probably not till my next build and I would like to add another rad as well, so will be getting a bigger case for sure.

No one can do Commercially available cards without being in Green Light!! Nvidia would stop allocating GPU to board partners which would hit them very hard.

For sure none green light say a run of a thousand would sell. This card would be priced £800+ . But it wont happen. For none marketing purposes its simply not Nvidia's bag!!!
