Would I be mad to...

...sell my Titan and replace it with a GTX 780?

arc@css · 27 May 2013 at 13:42

Unless you need the cash it might free up, I wouldn't bother.

imb4tman · 27 May 2013 at 13:43

I'd say yes. You would lose the difference in money for slightly lower performance.

I would keep the Titan

Keep the Titan.

Not sure the resale value of the titan would be justifiable now that the 780 has been released anyway, unless the current store prices are daft.

Spook187 · 27 May 2013 at 14:02

You were mad enough to buy the titan,so you would be mad enough to get the 780, both are way over priced

Keep the Titan

para08 · 27 May 2013 at 14:20

only if you sell me the titan. 400 will be ok right?

MichaelM · 27 May 2013 at 14:24

Is there enough demand for a 2nd hand Titan now the 780's are out? Not enough to get much money back i'd guess, to make the switch worth it.

He wasnt asking about value for money was he? We all get it.......780 is overpriced......move on now, nothing to see.

Keep the Titan

I would keep the Titan unless you can get somewhere near the amount of money you paid for it. I see no reason to take a hefty hit money wise to drop performance.

spoffle · 27 May 2013 at 18:30

Titans will hold their value for those that want/need the DP floating point performance, if you can find someone that requires that, you could make a decent swap of it with some change in your pocket.

fishingcat · 27 May 2013 at 20:06

Once again, keep the Titan.

Resale means that you won't save enough to make downgrading to a GTX 780 worth it. If you bought the Titan in the first place you should have known that value for money wasn't going to be its strong point.

tommybhoy · 27 May 2013 at 21:05

Stemming from fear of making the wrong choice, guilt over extravagance, or a suspicion of having been overly influenced by the seller-buyers remorse.

Keep it though, less chance of an upgrade if Volcanic Island just matches/surpasses Titan, if you swap it for a 780, no doubt you will want an upgrade again.

ChrisD. · 28 May 2013 at 18:21

Looks like I'll keep it then.

Diagro · 28 May 2013 at 18:24

do you need the cash? Then sell it and get the 780.

if you dont care about the money and wont cry when you see it loose 80% of its value over the next 18 months.. then keep it

Buckster · 28 May 2013 at 18:37

do you need the performance difference ?

if not sell it and get the 780

Bromhead · 28 May 2013 at 18:46

I'd keep the Titan since you've made the purchase already

You probably won't be looking at *that much* cash after selling it second hand and buying a new 780. Wouldn't make financial sense for me.
