Look, already have my doubts about it ...

for me i think the performance will be like this :D

Like Mr Terminator? hahahahaha
I hope we get a leak before tomorrow. Leak something from a different time zone and blame it on the time zone, Nvidia will not blame you. I promise I will generate a lot of clicks for you !!!! :)
I can almost not believe there aren't more leaks. They must have mailed out a very limited number of cards.
I really want three GTX Titans for SLI, man, that will seriously merc the fresh out my Nvidia Surround setup.
Think I should upgrade to a PCIe 3.0 chipset to get the most out of them? Will a 4.0-5.0GHz Ivy Bridge CPU be a better match for a GTX Titan than an i7 920 @ 4.0GHz?
No boost and rather CPU bottlenecked. That would make Titan only a good 10% faster than the 680. Not happening guys ;)
HWLuxx tested Titan's GPU boost v2.0 and made a video:

They tested with Unigine Valley and you can see the fps. Some guy in their forum compared his own scores with a GTX680:
GTX 680@1Ghz:
1. Scene: 30~35FPS
2. Scene: 54~44FPS (fps drop during the scene)
3. Scene: 35~40FPS
GTX Titan@1Ghz:
1. Scene: 50~55FPS
2. Scene 89~70FPS (fps drop during the scene)
3. Scene: 50~60FPS

This is a performance increase of 50-60% over the 680. I checked with my 580 and Titan is about 110% faster.
A tester from a hardwaresite (will not say which to protect him) spoilered Titan would be about 50% faster than the 680 in Crysis 3.
Same goes for BF3.
Can't wait to see 2 and 3-way SLI benchmarks across Nvidia Surround (5760x1200, etc).
Pretty strong gains there clock-for-clock, of course 680 clocks higher so that will reduce the margin somewhat. For safe 24/7 clocks (as discussed above regarding deterioration/failure) the Titan power will be great.
:D
Most 680's do 1200mhz core and a bit more maybe, it wouldn't warrant the msrp if it can't oc much further without massive overvoltage. We shall wait and see though, perhaps the average oc is around 1200mhz too :p That would be something, but even then, I would never spend more than 500usd on a gpu.
any idea if current drivers are not pushing Titan to its full potential ?
based on specs it should be around 70%~85% faster than a 680 and not 60% at best
Titan has 50% more compute power and 50% more bandwidth than the 680 at estimated average clock rates:
2688*2*0.9GHz avg boost = 4840 GFLOPs
1536*2*1.06GHz avg boost = 3255 GFLOPs
70-85% is overly optimistic. I think if Titan boosts to 1 GHz, it could be close to 60% faster, but not more.
As exciting as the titan is, I only just realized from some videos on it that it has one shader block disabled.
At its price point, I don't think that Nvidia would have been at a loss if they sold the fully unlocked GPU.
Yes it's a lot of money, no doubt, whether its worth it or not is up to the individual. Big pluses for me are I like single gpu gaming so this is the only way to get a good gain over 680 (BF3) and I love benching new vid cards..... Shame about the price ....
:(
Ok Id definitely rather have one of those than SLI 680s or a 690 + 680 tri SLI.
