** CRAZY 780Ti DEAL: PERFECT FOR SLI UPGRADES!! **

[ubersonic]

Only if we get a deal on 780's, nothing we can do with our current inventory.

I'm not trying to insult you or anything, it's a genuine question but why is this?

I remember seeing some retailers trying to sell 580's at > 670 prices despite them having less RAM/performance and more heat/power consumption, etc. When they finally gave in and dumped them on the cheap they must have lost a lot more than they would have by dropping prices at the start, it just made no sense to me.

Because we can sell them all at current price, we build over 1000 systems a month, many of which will still be 780.

Thanks for the honest reply Gibbo bud.

There is very little in it witht he 970 using far less power and to all accounts clocks like a demon there is no REASON to bother with a 780ti especially being £100 more after price cuts

Cheers for that, but without any evidence its still not very clear as to which card performs better in games.

They are about on par.

 

[Gibbo]

Over 50 pre-sold, people still love a 780Ti when its a bargain.

HMM a bargain less ram more heat /more power and on par roughly and £100 more as they say fool and money

Good choice, fast, great cooling and sweet LED lighting, what more could a gamer want.

Nope, 780Ti wins when overclocked!

For those who want to SLI, this is a superb deal as 7xx and 9xx can't be SLI'd together!

Hi can be sli'd 970 and 980 together? thanks

 

[garymcq23]

would be tempted if the 780 Classified price was slashed

 

[havenrl]

Very good deals on those cards, wow

No.

But this doesn't affect the 780ti?

But this doesn't affect the 780ti?

Presumably Gigabyte did them a deal in order to enable this price.

 

[JimboJet]

Well Gigabyte have just given me a truly insane deal on 780Ti and 780Ti GHz!
