Nah, ill soldier on until skylake with the 4790k, once its out of warranty ill delid it and clock it a bit more, not that its any slouch as it is for gaming. I need to get out of the habit of cpu upgrades, been through 5 in 18 months.:o

Respect....a part of me loved x58 and it's longevity...:)
 
I still have an X58 setup running here at 4ghz too, if i take one of the cards in sig and put it in it, games are pretty similair. No idea though on how much the 930 would bottleneck sli 780's, cant run them in the X58 board as spacing is too tight and the top card would cook itself.
 
If this is definitely the Titan X albeit it less memory and no compute stuff i.e a proper 780 Ti successor then I'll buy it come launch day :)
 
I might be upgrading at some point this year but that is an option i am thinking about.
If youve held on this long, personally id suggest waiting until early 2016 for intels skylake. I dont see the point now of moving to Z97 which will go eol after the release of the broadwell cpu's this summer. X99 is an option too if you feel you will make use of it's features.

To my knowledge there is no compute stuff to strip out anyway, Titan x does not have do. So only thing would be 6gb less memory. Though maybe I am missing something. Probably 980ti will come in around £600 or less depending on what amd do.

Yes this is the significant difference with the TX, it doesn't have the compute advantage on regular GTX cards unlike the original Titan and it also does not have an SMX disabled. So to make a Ti version would surely only serve to one up the 390X (if it can match TX performance) by a simple core clock increase with half the vram.

£700 because ... Nvidia :p

£700 then £250 when its eol due to small chip Pascal offering the same performance with a 125w tdp :D

So am guessing it looks like NVidia is going be falling behind AMD again when it come to The Vram amount they going put on there high end GPU :(

IE
Nvidia 980TI 6GB
AMD 390X 8GB

The 390X would be the better choice imho, 8GB of lighting fast HBM over 6GB GDRR5 anyday.

I'm sure the 980 will be gimped beyond just less memory VS Titan X. Will likely have something disabled so less ROPS, Less Cache, and less Memory. Although whether Nvidia tell people about it is another thing :p
 
If they bring out an 8GB 980Ti with a full Titan core it would make the Tx largely useless. They'll do something to restrict its performance.

Good point regarding vram, though if the rumours are true about the 390 being fitted with an AIO, this will make it an instant no for me personally. Wouldnt have the room in the case for it.
