It looks like the pricing reflects the DP FP performance more than anything:

295 X2: 1433 GFLOPS
TitanZ: 2707 GFLOPS

Correct, but compared to the rest of the NV lineup it does make sense:

GTX780Ti
DP: 0.21 TFLOPS
Price: 470
£ per FT: 2238

Tesla K40
DP: 1.43 TFLOPS
Price: 4300
£ per FT: 3006

Titan-Z
DP: 2.7 TFLOPS
Price: 2400
£ per FT: 888.88

Now granted you could get three Titan Blacks for the same price and have 1.5x the performance, but if nobody was willing to pay a premium for a single slot solution then the 295X2/7990/690 wouldn't have shipped a single card.

Besides if people want a fully gaming orientated Geforce they can just wait for GTX790, should be much cheaper as less compute tax.

Visceral made Dead Space, right? And then only put idiotic multiplayer in because of xbots that have to have multi on every title.

Not really a good fit here...

I'm thinking about getting it, not convinced yet though. However if it has Mantle support then ill definitely get it.
