    So we all know and understand that at one point Nvidia will release a Dual-GPU GeForce GTX 790 right ? Whenever that happens, I do not know for sure,. maybe March though. But likely that product will ...

    if these rumors are true, what's the point of titan black edition with that price tag? 790's specs look interesting though.

    The Black Edition looks interesting for me but they really need to lower their prices because the 290/290X offer a much better value with a much better price and almost the same performance.

    C´mon Nvidia do something useful and lower the prices of your cards...

    So essentially the Titan Black is a re-badged 780ti with double the VRAM ?

    Price of the 790 looks interesting though.

    That's why we have alternatives, good thing AMD is around becouse this is just silly.

    It seems like that but i´ve only noticed now that they are asking 300 dollars for more 3Gb vram, WTF???...

    This can´t be true or can?...

    most likely it has the compute power of titan too. as we know 780 ti is way weaker on that section.

    Yea that's ridiculous. Unless it also has high performing double-precision like the titan.

    Well i doubt it, BUT if its true that's gonna be my next card :rock:

    Why does the "790" not have 2 x 2880 = 5760 cuda cores if its supposedly 2 x 780ti's ?

    Yea it must be the double-precision and that must be the reason why it´s called Titan instead of 780Ti but i couldn´t care less about that so no way i´m paying 1000 bucks for that type of card... Even the price of the 790 is hard to justify but ok...

    Maxwell can´t come soon enough...

    the 790 but, once the prices drop a tad, would be so much fun. I would count on one for witcher3.

    250W TDP for black Titan? My grey Titan hits it's TDP limit @ ~1050mhz in some scenarios.

    300W for 2 full GK110 cores? HAHAHAH omg, not gunna happen unless they are running at 600mhz.

    Nvidia need to remove this stupid TDP throttling, we should be allowed to decide how much power it uses. Or is there some law they are having to obey?

    If you look at GTX690 price after all this years you'll know that price wont go down. :D Reality is that you will play Witcher 3 on your GTX680.

    Loads of people will jump a new dualcard for sure. I guess AMD will be bringing something stupid like 290x2 to the table too :D

    Guys, it says it right in the article:
    That itself makes it cheap compared to how much you'd have to pay for DP.

    Dual GPU cards need a good balance between power/temperature, they probably found that with using 2496 cores. Makes the 790 a better price/performance card compared to 2x780's.

    Wow .. that would be something too! I hope they do something about the stock cooler on that thing.
