nVidia Announces the GTX 780 Ti R290X Killer

nVidia is having a little "event" in Canada this week and today marks the second day of announcements including a new GPU.  Most folks farming for traffic said it wasn't going to happen while others would string you along saying "we swore we wouldn't tell".  Either way the rumormill was correct and we indeed have a new GPU.

Enter the GTX 780 Ti

Today in Montreal, NVIDIA announced they will be releasing the GTX 780 Ti in mid-November (it will be a hard launch).  This card is meant to compete and potentially one-up AMD’s upcoming R9 290X in a big way.  It is supposed to be quiet, run cool and provide a ton of performance.

Of course the news is just breaking so details are sparse but according to nVidia "this is the fastest GPU we have ever produced" which would indicate it is faster than Titan.  

Personally I think its just a Titan core on a retail card but with the 780 name badge it will likely be limited to 3-way SLI and generally cost too much for anyone to care.  

More to come.
