    Said it before - it's a mute point until games have 4K gfx.

    I know I am.

    Until I see a GTX880 Ti or GTX 885, however they decide to name things this round, I'm holding off.

    I could use the Vram, but not at that bandwidth. Playing at 1440p, I demand a bit more here.

    It is not moot at all.

    We can game at 4K and it is significantly more demanding than 1080, 1440, 1600.

    The consideration is the horsepower required to run any game at that resolution and not whether they are specifically designed for 4K or not.

    Why you feel the need to make these comments in every thread where 4K is mentioned eludes me :confused:

    Im not surprised if you have 2x 780s, theres absolutely no point in em for anyone whos got a 780/780Ti/Titan/290s etc...

    Im waiting for 20nm, can't really see how they can get much more out of the 28nm.

    If the price is right I will pick one up bundled with GTA V.

    As others have said this is not the big gpu refresh its the gk104 replacement aka gtx 680/gtx770. I want to upgrade my system but it's just not the right time yet. 8 core haswell-e x99 looks pretty good tho. And with the consoles being 8 core maybe future games will actually be optimized for it. But I'll probably stick with my 5870 until I can get the maxwell replacement of gk110

    Maxwell is awesome on 28nm we saw it with 750ti, but 28nm hit the limits already. big daddy GM200 should bring high performance increase over GK110, but only in 2015.

    When choosing next card you need to see how it perform with new gen titles on 4K res, my next video card must be like the 780, super awesome 90+fps at all games. so 4K need to have Gsync as well as 120hz support, till then 4K is just a word.

    I'll be retiring my gtx480's with one or two of these depending on how they perform.

    Should be a cracking upgrade from 480s.

    if folks are OCing the ram to 8ghz then i'll prolly be highly tempted by these, one of these plus a 760 for PhysX sounds too much fun for me to resist, if the window of opportunity presents.
    i'd like to try evga sc version this time around, though a 880 ftw sounds real good. classy will be outta my league I imagine.

    Isn't a 760 for physx alone a bit overkill?
    But I'm also toying with the idea of getting a dedicated physx card like the 750Ti (maybe passively cooled and hooked up with silent fan).

    I'm just wondering, reference designs shouldn't overclock as good as custom pcbs with more options to empower them, or am I wrong?

    you don't need a dedicated card to run physics and it's barely supported anyways. That's pointless but to each his own

    I ditched that after I tried it for a second time in MetroLL with a 770.

    I was getting massive freezing for seconds at a time, turned dedicated PhysX off and it stopped.

    I've had nothing but great improvements with a dedicated card in GPU accelerated games, highly recommend a small 750Ti as one.

    I too am thinking of getting a dedicated physix card, but only if I also upgrade to x99 since I need the pcie lanes for my usual 2way SLI.

    750ti is enough for Dedicated physx for my 780ti's... anyone with 780ti, upgrading to 880?
