First NVIDIA GeForce Titan 780 Performance Numbers Revealed
The rumor mill is spinning to galeforce (or should we say GeForce) winds. Its newest sack of flour points at what could be the first performance figure of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce Titan 780 flagship single-GPU graphics card. Circulating among various Chinese tech publications is this 3DMark 11 Xtreme Preset screenshot from the PCinLife community, in which a lucky bloke claimed access to a GeForce Titan 780 engineering sample, and a driver to get it to work. In the scribbled out 3DMark 11 Xtreme Preset score screenshot (below), the source claims the fabled graphics card can singlehandedly score X7107 points. For reference, a GeForce GTX 690 usually scores in the region of X6000 points, and a GTX 680 around X3300. If true, NVIDIA has something truly remarkable up its sleeves, maybe the second coming of 8800 GTX. From older reports, we know that the GeForce Titan is expected to ship sooner than most people think, some time in February.

If it is running at 1GHz, it still seems weird to me...where do those 1000 points come from if the 690 is running around 950MHz.
if the 780 has 6gb of memory like the link a few posts back says it does that could go a long way towards achieving that score, in addition to a fully loaded 110 clocked higher i think we have a winner, an expensive one but a winner
but can anybody tell if Extreme preset is GPU memory + DP perf(compute/physics) dependent? I ask this because of the expected 6GB Vram and that GK110 has much better DP performance than GK104
If this is true then prepare for sticker shock! and 300+W requirements.
This shot is in time to wipe the floor with the ARES II card. If that x7100 is from a single GPU, you can bet your ass ill stick 2 inside my rig.
:shadedshu I'm sorry, I couldn't resist :laugh:
I'm actually not sure what to say if this is accurate...except this card is gonna cost a lot but will be worth it if under $700
Wishful thinking from some Chinese enthusiast I would say.
Only now an oddly high x7100 score pops up - which seems unlikely, especially for the rumoured power envelope.
We'll all see soon enough. :toast:
Same old same old from Nvidia marketing dept but i'll take the post, it helps mah peenUs grow :p
900 dollars is A LOT of money.. no chance i'll pay that for a VGA.
I remember radeon 9800xt was like $500
and that was 10 years ago :o
Basically having that kind of monster single GPU without SLi downsides is win win win. 8800 Ultra oh yes.
