Look at GK180 based K6000 and you have a card that is clocked at 900mhz, has more shaders and has a tdp 10 watts lower TDP than k20x. That's a massive improvement. Before you say they aren't comparable since Tesla is different than the workstation quadro, lets look at the fermi generation.
Tesla M2070 and Quadro 6000 are both based on the same GF100 and if you look at the clocks, they are exactly the same at 574mhz and not only that, they have the same TDP at 225 Watts. They have the same clocks and TDP rating
So now lets look at GK110 to GK180 again for the professional class of cards.
732mhz -->900mhz
2688 shaders --> 2880 shaders
235watt TDP --> 225 watt tdp
Now lets fill in the blanks for titan to gtx 780 ti
876mhz --> ????
2688 shaders --> 2880 shaders
250watt TDP --> ???
So if any of GK180's improvements carry over, even just a little bit(and they used GK180 instead of Gk110), then you have room for monster clocked cards, just as much as gtx 780 if not more.
The 900mhz clocks and 225 watt TDP on a fully enabled big keplar is very impressive for quadro.
