[youdsy]

recession my bum.

 

[BriT]

Cheapest i can find is £550, far to much.

 

[Meeeellar]

£550? Im out.

But then i was only ever in if the GTX 770 came in at under £300.

Any prices on the 770's yet?

I didn't ever think they would be under £300 but was hoping they wouldn't be more then £350.

770 is 680 price level

Bear in mind were selling 680's now close to £350 as 770 will eventually replace that model.

So, RRP is $650, converts to £430......I feel molested.

Plus VAT is £516. so it's only 6.4% more expensive than it should be compared to America.

Still too expensive everywhere though, and where are the 770s!?

Yes but you have to remember we live in the UK were everything is more expensive, Why ? because they can get away with it and no one does anything about it.

Nothing to do with the average wage being higher?

 

[VIPER258]

Over £500 is a bit rich for my blood.

Will wait until AMD counter although I do feel the itch to upgrade which is the worse .

 

[XeNoN89]

250 less than ridiculous is still ridiculous

With prices like this i'm not going be building a high end gaming pc ever again

Titan resell value might have just gone down £150-£200 in one fell swoop.

The 780 doesn't have the FP64 performance, which should help a bit.

The GTX280 was $649 in 2008. (£1 = $2.00) = £380 (17.5%Vat)
The GTX480 was $499 in 2010. (£1 = $1.50) = £360 (15%Vat)
The GTX580 was $499 in 2010/11. (£1 = $1.60) = £375 (20%Vat)
The GTX680 was $499 in 2012. (£1 = $1.58) = £378 (20%Vat)
The GTX780 was $650 in 2013. (£1 = $1.55) = £503 (20%Vat)

Inflation has gone up a lot between the 480 release and the 680 release, still going up at the moment but at slower rate, maybe this is just catch up where the relative prices should be all in one rather than progressively.

What the retailers put on the price is up to them.

That is your opinion but for me and many other Titan owners I know, your opinion is wrong. Quite a few of us are triple screen gamers and 3GB of VRAM just doesn't cut it with full details on in games like Crysis3.

Not a dig at you but so many think like yourself and don't give thoughts to what systems people have and what resolutions they use.

So many think like myself? I've already given consideration to people with multi-screen setups which is why I said it would have been worth waiting "for most". True we are entitled to our own opinions but I'm not disagreeing with you - just that I know a fair share of owners who would have got a 780 instead if they had to choose now.

What was this supposed to prove? The last three GTX X80 cards have been $499 and now this one is $650. That isn't inflation, that is pricing it at $150 more

I was just writing down the numbers out of curiosity, not everything people post on forums has to have meaning...if that was the case forums would be empty space lol
I also left this at the end of my post.

It's not unheard of where the manufacturers/retailers swallow the costs of inflation till the consumer has a healthier wallet/bank balance. Obviously all of this is conjecture.

 

[avatar12m]

just don't buy any until the price drops

 

[Gregster]

Titan performance for £200-£250 less..almost looks like a bargain. £550-£600 for a card is still a lot. People who bought Titan should have waited for this xD

Yeah but the price difference between the two is so huge in such a close release span that playing the wait game would have been worth it (for most).

So many think like myself? I've already given consideration to people with multi-screen setups which is why I said it would have been worth waiting "for most".

Fair enough

 

[vapor matt]

mmmmmmm i wanted 2 of these babys but water cooled, think i shall have to wait untill pricing settles and the water blocks become available before i commit to anything.

£499.00 would have been a nice price to see, plus my bro lives in the US so will get him to purchase and send me a gift!

I shall stick to my Sli 680's for now me thinks!


Nice reviews though!

The titan blocks are the same as the 780's will be ;o

 

[Wucked]

I play 1080p 120hz so 3Gb VRAM is enough for me. It feels like NV have seen me coming, but my 780 arrives tomorrow (assuming DPD don't derp again) regardless. Quite looking forward to it. Next complete waste of money is an upgrade for my ageing i7 970 to raise that minimum fps up a bit.

 

[Wazz-1]

Looks like a great card, if i had a spare £550 i'd have one, but for now i'll just wait a month or two see what happens,
Although it is my Birthday on Sunday..... hint.... hint..

 

[spoffle]

Why are they generally about £50 more than elsewhere, Gibbo?

Because they're pre-discounted for your convenience, and you pay for the customer service...

 

[Marine-RX179]

EVGA GTX 780 £590 over here, $650 in the States.

I'm not amused in the slightest.

Thought it's always how it goes with pricing around here- UK price (with VAT inc.) always seem to be around US price minus $50-$60, and then turn the $ sigh into £

Converting dollars to pounds and then add VAT? Na...it's never gonna work like that, unless it is lower end cards, or cards that's been launched for at least around 2-3 months
