How do you know it will be £800 ?

The Ti is rumored to come in at current 780 price £500+ not £800+.
780 prob drop to £400+ 780ti @ £500+. Titan go EOL or maybe even continue selling as doesn't really effect 7XX stack, kind of an anomaly.
My prediction,
290X £430+ VS 780ti £500+
290 £325+ VS 780 £400+
280X £230+ VS 770 £300+

Because the GTX Titan was £1000 at launch and Nvidia sold far more of them then they thought they would.
Nvidia know they can have a volume part in that price range and it sell well, the Titan is no longer that card, but the 780TI as a clocked up Titan which is faster on paper, is.
With that 3DMark11 score Boomstick777 posted compared with the R9 290X. thats Nvidia's new £800 card.
It wouldn't sell for £800, their 780 and Titan users who are most likely to "upgrade" to a 780ti wouldn't bother.
Titan was priced that high because it had next gen single card performance 9 months early. nVidia aren't stupid enough to launch a 290X competitor for double the price...
Use a bit of logic...

They launched a GPU 25% faster than the competition at 3 times the price and they sold in droves.
Launching a card 10/15% faster for twice the price is a bargain compared to that.
Logic and Nvidia's pricing structure never belong in the same sentence.
The Titan being an orphaned Tesla product, also factors into its pricing. So I expect the 780ti to sell at least a little cheaper.
Okay well you stick to your £800 suggestion.

Ok so heres the "Leaked" X scores for the R290X and the GTX 780 Ti
And then here is my X score with a single 780, Took the 2nd 780 out just to make sure.
If the "leaked" score is correct I shall stay with my 780 SLI setup until Maxwell.
*EDIT* I think I may be able to squeeze a little more out of a single 780, Will update later

The 780, Titan 780TI... they are all exactly the same "orphaned Tesla product"
It might be a little cheaper, the only thing thats talked about the 290X is heat heat heat, i think its going to fall flat on its face as a result of a very bad rep.
people will spend £100 to get the one with the good rep, even if it is a bit slower, they will certainly spend another £200 on top of that to get the one thats also a lot faster.
Orphaned in the sense that the Titan's DP capabilities aren't capped just no support service. The 780 has had its compute capabilities limited and is more sepcifically targeted to the gaming market. Titan should retain a premium becasue of that.

Who buys a gaming card that slower in gaming than the 780TI but faster in compute?
The Titan is going to get discontinued.
There so many different things that can also effect the score...
Ram , CPU , Motherboard , windows version , Drivers, 32bit/64bit OS, etc
So you can never really compare one GPU score against another GPU score unless they where both in the same system with only the GPU changed
Example below = different RAM speed/Timing effects

Not sure why you keep saying the Titan was £1000 at launch? No matter how many times I correct you, you still say it was £1000.

No it wasn't

Ok, now you are just trolling.
