    exactly the same? huh i would have though the thermals would have been better on my flatmates 770, that thing screams under load or bumps 80.

    That's funny that a 4-month wait is a fast answer on Nvidia's end, but forever when it takes AMD 4-months. I'm not of you implying this, but others claimed AMD's answer to Titan was slow...when I thought it was quite fast.

    successor of GK104, GM104 will be released Q1/14 and first Mawell IS 28nm chip, believe or not, but you will see!

    I fail to see why NVIDIA would even need to do this. If the Hawaii XT card can compete or even slightly beat TITAN, all NVIDIA has to do is lower the GTX 780's price which would mean OC versions (which tend to beat TITAN anyways) would at least match AMD while offering a conceivably lower price point. Problem solved.

    I would be unsure of how easy it is to lower the price on a die as large as GK110. Nvidia didn't lower the price on the 680, why would they do it for the Titan/780.

    It would be mostly marketing reasons. New launches generate alot of press hype and with games like battlefield 4 being launched/bundled with the new card, there is a huge amount of potential to hurt nvidia sales. If these lose the single chip crown, it gives AMD alot of marketing power. If Nvidia were to launch something on the same day as the hawaii launch, it would surely take some of the attention away from the AMD launch.

    They are reporting record margins. So not only are price cuts possible but big ones at that. I would hope that yields would have improved at this point to for gk110 since it has been about a years since these chips have been shipping to customers.

    I'm guessing not particularly hard. Nvidia priced the gtx 680 (gk104 die) for a long time at the initial planned launch price of the gk110 die. So for one, that says they had a huge profit margin to sit on, and for another it suggests that they can easily price the gtx 780 at $500 (their traditional high end launch price, or at least as far as the gtx 480 that is true).

    NVIDIA is done their refresh. Their next move is next gen products on 20nm. At this point, anything on 28nm is pretty much "current gen".

    Out of curiosity, is the gt780 really considered a refresh? As I understood it gk110 was supposed to be the gtx 680, but it wasn't ready/wasn't needed

    The fact that they've just managed to fix Crossfire stuttering doesn't mean they have better drivers.

    Hm, nvidia fixed their SLI microstutter years ago with little fanfare... AMD makes a big dog and pony show about partially fixing it YEARS late, and suddenly they have "better drivers" despite still being months upon months for profile updates and having plenty of other deficiencies? Sorry, but I disagree to say the least.

    To be honest, there have been some issues lately, basically with all R320 or R325 drivers to some extent. Freezing (GTX 460 owners), cards not clocking down during browsing, corruption in BF3...but I wouldn't judge drivers on this alone or on a relatively short timeframe.

    but that would almost be admitting defeat which nvidia would never do
    in the past they have just left there prices higher and relied on marketing to make most people out there believe they are getting what they pay for
    why would they change a good money making strategy that works

    Wow, what a great argument. Did you buy y GTX780 at start? If so, you'd know that NV drivers are quiet the "killers" when it comes to having fun with games.

    I didn't buy a 780 (I bought a 7970 and later a GTX 680) but telling that AMD got better drivers than nVidia is really a good joke.
    But going from your side, it's quite normal as AMD is always the best on your mouth, even when they do cr$p.

    Lately?
    You missed out on the days of MMOG gaming when nvidia couldnt write drivers that remove stuttering on their cards when the ati cards did run just fine.
    oh did you bake any cards lately in the oven?
    just make sure your remove the woodscrews first.

    Do you have concrete talking points or are you just trolling?

    Utter nonsense. There is no conclusive proof that drivers killed cards.

    20nm GPU will be only a paper launch until mid-2014. The early GTX8xx will be 28nm GPU.

    Maxwell brings only a small increase in performance against Kepler, until 20nm production ready. Maxwell has great power efficiency, has Huma functions and is more efficient, its advantages are NOT Performance at first. It is tweaked Kepler with few new features.
