GeForce GTX 770 Specifications Leaked, Could Surprise with Pricing
NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 770 could end up being the product we expected it to be specifications-wise, but could surprise with pricing, according to retailers in Tokyo's Akihabara electronics shopping district. On paper, the GTX 770 is virtually identical to the GeForce GTX 680, albeit with higher core clocks, and a record memory frequency. The chip features 1046 MHz core, 1085 MHz of GPU Boost, and a staggering 7.00 GHz (1750 MHz actual) memory.
If true, the GTX 770 should be the highest-clocked GPU ever built. These clocks bolster the same 14-month old GK104 silicon we're all too familiar with. To support these clocks, the card draws power from a combination of 6-pin and 8-pin power connectors, and features a rated TDP of 230W. The card features a cooling solution identical to the GeForce GTX 780 and GTX TITAN, which should make it an attractive buy. The part that intrigued us the most is that retailers expect it to sell for 40,000¥, which should roughly convert to US $390~400. At this price, the GTX 770 should wreak havoc among AMD's ranks, and even make GTX 680 and GTX 670 much cheaper.

Couple that with the fact their drivers clearly weren't up to speed at launch...

...all results in nV's mid-range chip competing just dandy thanks very much. People were quick to forget the 680 also launch a bit cheaper too.

I bet W1zz is working on one as we speak.
Aslong as people are willing to pay high prices they arent going to be coming down anytime soon.
I bought a 7970 in late July 2012 for $369.99. Prices havent changed much.
Sparkle being the lowest at $419.99 and EVGA the highest $599.99
Even if you take out the two most expensive GTX 680 2GB average is $473
Not off by much $25-34 dollars
TechPowerUp GPU Database pricing for the GTX 770 is $549
Somehow, I don't see that as a concern for AMD.
I am interested to see just how far the 770 can clock with the superior Titan cooler. I would imagine a 770 running around 1350-1400/8000 could be quite interesting from a performance standpoint.
Will it clock high enough to get close to a stock 780? My assumption is no, but the refined process, much faster memory, a higher power target/higher available voltage and better cooler (allowing it to boost higher) could make it quite interesting.
