The 2013 Nvidia Lineup: GTX780 is Titan LE, GTX770 is GTX680, GTX760Ti is GTX670? - Bright Side Of News*

Visiting Asia has its treats. From a foot massage in Hong Kong to a 55" 4K panel in Shenzhen for $1600, it's easy to find what are you interested in. It is also easy to listen to the beat of the street. One such find are three new Nvidia boards coming in the next couple of weeks, boards that will push to fill all the gaps in the product stack.

First and foremost, few weeks back, several websites leaked the news about a part called GeForce GTX Titan LE, a board based on cut down GK110 GPU silicon. The leak was right, since this will actually be a consumer version of Tesla K20C, the 2496-core part with 5GB of GDDR5 memory. The name will not be the GTX Titan LE, though. Meet the GeForce GTX 780 5GB. Just as the GTX Titan was a consumer version of the K20X (2688-core part, 6GB GDDR5 memory), K20A/C is getting a consumer version as well. The performance is about 30% faster than a single GTX 680. You can expect this board to launch (hard launch, availability from Day 0) in the final days of May, as the Computex train starts to heat up. Pricing unknown, but you should prices anywhere between $499 and $599.

Second board will be the GeForce GTX 770. This is actually based off a GK104-425 die e.g. nothing more than a higher clocked GTX 680. Estimated performance is 20-25% better than GTX 670, on pair with the regular GTX 680. This is still a 256-bit interface part, with 4GB GDDR5 memory to be more prominently featured than a 2GB one. Nvidia's product stack calls for 6GB Titan, 5GB GTX 780, 4GB GTX 770 and 2GB GTX 760 Ti. Launch is allegedly scheduled for mid-May, as a precursor to the GTX 780.

Which brings us to the third product, the GeForce GTX 760 Titanium. GTX 760 Ti, sorry. This part is based on the same die as GTX 670; GK104-225. The board comes with 2GB GDDR5 memory and will do everything to put pressure on AMD's HD 7800 and 8800 line of OEM cards. Performance is targeting 20-23% increase from the standard GTX 660 Ti, and this is the part that will launch at the 2013 Computex Taipei trade show.

Naturally, there's a possibility that Nvidia will launch all three parts together and claim the best product stack for gamers out there.

Until Maxwell (GMxxx) arrives in 2014, do not expect new silicon from Nvidia. Come to think, AMD is also holding back its Volcanic Islands (VI) for the tail end of 2013 or in 2014. Next-gen processes cannot come soon enough for these companies... and yes, FinFET transistor on a 10-figure transistor count is a big challenge.

idk, it all sounds kinda awkward, and not really worth it. we'll see...

all i have is a 1GB 6950. if that 780 is priced more like the 680, and the 680 drops down, i will make a move on something, and i would rather it be nvidia this time due to the superior multi-card support down the road.

lately ive been seeing the 6950 being used as the minimum spec for some games. i cant have that.

@daze23 @Liquid or anyone that wants to help... it's time to upgrade my shyt, breh

Motherboard - Biostar A870U3 SATA 6GB/s USB3.0 AMD ATX
GPU - XFX Radeon HD 5670 1GB DDR5 :sadcam:
CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 925 Deneb 2.8Ghz
RAM - Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz
PSU - Thermaltake 750W ATX CrossFire Ready

500GB HDD, 64GB SSD (Definitely need to get a bigger SSD), Blu-ray burner

All in an NZXT (or NXZT, idk) Phantom Full Tower

Would more RAM be the best cheap/noticeable combination upgrade? Then what about video cards? Should I get a pretty good card with crossfire capability or just get one that can handle shyt?

Sell the 5670 on eBay.

Get a 7750 and get another 4GB stick of RAM. That will let you play any game out there at medium-high @ 1080P for the next year or 2.

You will definitely need to upgrade in late 2014 or early 2015...so dont invest too much more in that current rig.

What is your budget?
