Geforce GTX 780, 770 coming in May

no one knows - the rumour is that we are getting info on the 22nd May, or possibly even on the 16th May, though normally Gibbo comes on the forum and give us a ;) when it's only a few days away so I highly doubt the 16th
 
Gotta love the aggresion, Why do people get so narky about this stuff.

If i had a 6xx card then yes it maybe wouldnt be worth looking at..... BUT I have a 560TI and as such id be foolish to buy a 6xx card now and not wait to see what the 7xx offers and the prices.

If the 770 is the evolution of the 670 the the price should be comparable shouldnt it? maybe a small bump for "newness" that will decay over 6 months as the none refrence cards take over the high ground.

Im going to compare the 770 with a AMD card for the same price and see where they stand once some real benchmarks area available.

Hell a 680GTX is double the FPS of my 560TI in some games nearly already and thats before a 10-20% and some OCing.
 
I'm sort of interested in a 780, but if they rock-up at £600+ I'm probably going to skip it and wait for AMD's next move, or even Maxwell. I already have an overclocked 680 so the 770 would be a sidegrade.
 
It will be nice to see what the next generation offer, though I'm really in need of an upgrade in CPU. 15 fps in Arma 3 :'( and maybe I suck at overclocking, but I get BSOD when attempting it.
 
+1, ^^^ you need a very overclocked Intel CPU just to get Min playable Frame Rates in the Arma games

Horrible game engine, shockingly bad.
 
You can get a GTX 670 for £289, which would translate to $359 before tax (that is the actual price in the States too). It's more than likely that GTX 770 (that's supposed to be an overclocked GTX 680 GPU) will come down under that price point, although it's all speculation at this point, as how I explained it earlier, there's no such thing as a UK RRP and prices will be adjusted based on the US market prices and a number of other factors, which is why it's more sensible to discuss those rather than what the UK launch price will be.

From what we know so far, it's a given that the prices of GTX 670/680 equivalents (so GTX 760 and GTX 770 accordingly) will be favourable compared to the current prices, and hopefully they will be priced that way.

For comparison, the launch prices:

GTX 570 - $349
GTX 580 - $499
GTX 670 - $399
GTX 680 - $499

If the GTX 780 is actually a Titan LE, and all sources so far point to that, there will be quite a price gap between the GTX 770 and GTX 780, possibly as large as $200.

So say GTX 770 (slightly faster than the current GTX 680) comes down at $399, we might expect the price to be around £319 after VAT, which is quite reasonable considering the current generation's prices, but disappointing when you take into account how long we've waited and the small performance increases for money.

That would put the GTX 780 at $599, which is around £469 with the current exchange rates and inclusive of VAT.


If 770 gets launched for under £300, I'll eat my hat.

It's an upgraded 680 with a Titan cooler.

No way is that **** gonna cost under £400 XD

I expect pictures of you eating your hat if it's less expensive than GTX 680 today (can be had for £360).

I'd eat mine if it's more than the GTX 680 on launch ($499), but sadly, I don't have a hat.
 
Any confirmed news on what memory the 770 and 780 are shipping with?
Thanks.
I would expect the 770 to be in the £370-450 price range and the 780 from £560+.
 
If the 770 gets priced the same as the GTX 680 it's terrible tbh, but if they price it at the 670 price point then really it's just like a price dropped 680 with a better cooler :P.

There may be better overclocking potential on the 770..
