Nvidia unveils the GeForce GTX 780 Ti

Ok... Where was all these "even footing" "we need to change our testing/benching methodology" the past 2-3 years?
Why do you need to shift the parameters of the test? Why can't you test stock vs stock?
That's right because the results don't show what you want.

I don't know where it was in other reviews, but hardware.fr, PCGH, ht4u and Computerbase have been preheating Kepler cards from day one. Not finally several other sites begin to do it, among them hardwarecanucks, techreport and Anandtech iirc.
And it IS a stock vs stock comparison. Quiet mode is the stock setting, uber mode isn't.

Look at any GTX480 review.
No I don't know what average means... please explain.

I bet I can because those results look extremely strange. GTX780 and Titan pulling less than 200w?
There is something screwy going on there because those results don't reflect what other sites have found.

The power consumption numbers there are not strange for one very simple reason. 3DCenter compiles values mostly from realistic gaming scenarios, i.e. with pre-heating (at least HT4U, PCGH and hardware.fr). This leads to all Nvidia Boost 2.0 cards clocking lower due to the 80C temperature target being hit, thus they also consume less power.
I don't need to look at "any" GTX 480 review, because this compilation of measurements is far better. Most reviews test the whole system which is very prone to errors. Where else on the web do you have 5-6 measurements of the consumption of the card itself? Nowhere.

Btw still waiting on proof on your claim that Fermi could use 300+W under gaming loads...
