GTX 780 Ti Specifications Leaked – Full Blown Gk110 Core with 2880 SP

All this does is point out how great value the 290 Pro is in all honesty, its only slightly slower than a 290X, which in turn isnt that far off a 780Ti. And the 290 Pro is almost half the price..

Something tells me the winners here will be people who buy 290 Pros when it comes to power per pound spent, factor in the Non Ref cooler versions that will come out, NeverSettle Bundle being added and then Mantle in the future, im still not convinced Nvidias showing is better.... thats my 2cp

Coil whine, high power usage, 90c heat even with 3 fan cooler, noisy, some games still have issues with CF/SLI.

No thanks Jeff.

No coil whine on mine, high power usage, its dual gpu what do you expect, that's a given with any dual card. Loads at around 85c for me, as for game issues with crossfire ive yet to encounter any as of late. :)

The 290 is definitely great value and when aftermarket coolers come in will be a real winner however people buying 780Tis won't give a monkeys about power per pound spent, they care about having the absolute best single GPU bar none.

A 7990 user with zero coil whine? You're a very lucky chap then.
 
£100 more (reference model) and £150 more (non-reference) and 20 % faster than 780 , and has better O.C ability from both Titan and 780 , and almost reach the performance of dual GPU
i think is worth it
