** KINGPIN HAS ENTERED THE WEBSITE!! **

:p

It is worrying though, I don't disagree. A lot of that price rise has been due to AMD being uncompetitive with performance. NVIDIA had the TITAN out for almost a whole year unchallenged. 780 had a good run too before the 290's started emerging. AMD need to get faster with their counters, and we'll see better pricing.

The rather substantial drop on the 780's that happened when the 290's came out is a fine example of NVIDIA's 'premium'.

Although it should be said, basing pricing on the extreme luxury version of the 780 Ti (which this Kingpin is), is not the best of benchmarks. This is only for record breaking.

Because they can't. It has to be either 3GB or 6GB, and 6GB is harder to overclock than 3GB.

Thanks for the update Ben.

I wonder if the OCUK guys can confirm how many pre-orders will ship?

I am just waiting for confirmed numbers for the UK at the moment I should have this tomorrow and so then Gibbo can confirm how many are coming in to you and how many backorders he can ship.
With Chinese New Year fast approaching this might be the only stock for a few weeks so I will try and get as many as I can for the UK.

Thanks

You mean 290x Lightning? Or are MSI making a 780 Ti Lightning also?

Also, all the best beating Kingpin :D
