Kepler Nvidia GeForce GTX 780

You have to admit your words are at the same time, trying to slam on Nvidia and put AMD in a better light.

Lets do the same thing with AMD 7970.

Sure this card cut down to hell is "only" 25 percent faster than a standard 7970, but fully enabled(2880 shaders) this chip is somewhere around 40 percent faster that a 7970 ghz edition(I think the reviews complilation got an average of 33% with one cluster disabled) or 50 percent faster than 7970.

Guess what the bigger the chip gets, the harder it is to get good yields and get everything enabled

Speaking of shaders, I find that the GCN uarch is not very optimized at high shader count. Compare 7870 and 7970 for example. The performance increase isn't much relative to the amount of shader power added. I'm not sure about current drivers though, it has been a while since I compared the 7870 and 7970. Sorry for the OT.
