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.

Did anyone ever confirm that the Titan was the 780?
I see it as a "special edition" type card with limited production, after all I remember reading "no changes can be made by the manufacturers" so they will all look the same, not even a sticker from asus or evga or etc
But was that confirmed?
Secondly, when was the last single card with 6gb ddr5 benchmarked in 11?
Thirdly, if the score is true, I'll be buying one for sure, if its not true but close, I'll still be buying it.
If its only 50% better then single 680, I'll pass.
But it doesn't hurt to hope for it being the real thing does it?!
And I think the price will be $549 at launch :D
Bring on 3840x2160@120Hz/3D gaming! Yeah! LOL
But my resolution is small 1366x768
To me 1920x1080 is a crazy resolution xD
Anyways if it does end up performing that good, I'm eating my hat ...
... and then getting one. Factor in inflation and that $500 isn't too far off from today's $800.
Like memory.. Memory is crazy cheap now compared to say, what it was like in 2005.
This is like GTX580 (second gen, big fermi) compared to GTX460 (1st gen, medium fermi). Double the performance is very plausible. I'm just hoping Nvidia is sensible about it and doesn't go for double the price.
If that score is from 2 cards, then one card would be betwen 680 and 690. And for a 3500 4000 X score, it tottaly wont be worth the price. But for a single GPU, that may well be the mother ship of gpus out there.
