@ TheRealdeal, I guess you have not looked at the benchmark threads then ;)

No need as both these cards were running on the same machine so it's a better comparison. Stock amd cooler v a decent gtx780 cooler. I also seen that the r9 290 has broke a few record's and it's only release day. I am very confident it's a more powerful card than a gtx780 core wise. It's more on par with titan imo. We shall see though as it's early day's.

Sweet.
 
Was it confirmed the 780Ti will be 3GB?

I'm still looking to go tripple 1440P screens which means titan territory.

The 290X doesnt appear to stack up amazingly. I mean its good but in SLI the heat output must be pretty stupid.

I'm starting to think that I'm best sticking with gaming on 1 screen at 1440p, getting a couple of 780s/780Ti and just using that until the next gen, when people start pushing for 4k performance more (and thus, tripple 1440p setups will be more achievable)

While the titan would suit me, its hard to justify spending so much on 2 cards, that will be outperformed by overclocked 780s for cheaper. and its simply the 3GB of ram holding it back at that rez.

But i tihnk 3GB will be an issue, already on my 3gb 7970, most games on a single 1440p monitor are using 2-2.5gb of VRAM. :/

Best to just stick with single screen gaming, and get 780s for now? and wait before i go silly with tripple until next gen (hopefully around summer ish time?)
 
What i mean is, if on one 1440p screen i'm using 2-3GB of VRAM. what happens when i throw another 2 screens in?

3GB will become an issue in CURRENT games.

I'm not talking about future VRAM usage at all. That might rise it might fall, I'm talking about GPU options for 7680x1440 resolution today.

Absolutely nothing, you'll use whatever vram is available to you.

3GB is not an issue in the slightest with current games. Not even close, not an issue and never will be.

At 4k gaming, it wont be VRAM thats the issue, its memory bandwidth.

For 4k and uber settings you need a multi GPU setup and that will lead to a VRAM problem, you are going to need more than 4gb.

Agreed and unless the Titans are caching VRAM, games like Crysis 3 with the eye candy are going to become a stutter fest on a 290X, regardless of the amount of cards, as I used over 4GB at 5760x1080 :eek:

So it looks like a Titan with higher clocks to combat the 290X...

This is remarkably similar to what AMD did with the 7970GE and not a bad shout. It is only a few of us who crunch numbers with regards to fps but I would say the 75% of GPU owners just want the fastest out of the box that is fitting to their budget and not consider overclocking as an option.

I had a feeling they would do this with the 780 and keep the 3GB / 2304 cores and clock the nuts off it at maybe 1050Mhz stock and boosting past 1150Mhz but add the 6GB.
 
Great, price wars incoming :)
Maybe non x 290s will sell cheaper.
Just wonder how where they stand in terms of performance, vs 770s and 780s.
 
Im still hanging about. Was quite tempted by the 7990 yesterday but managed to hold off. I'm having a desk made for me and don't have a surface for my PC at the moment, when that is delivered the only thing holding me back is GPU and that's when it will get twitchy. I think I still want the single fastest GPU I can get at the time, which isn't proper loud.
 
If those are indeed the real specs then I'm actually torn between staying 780 SLI or going 780 Ti SLI
