| Captain_Tom said: Has anyone noticed that this isn't any stronger than it should be? 2012's strongest GPU was the HD 7970 GHz (Don't argue, it currently is). 2011's was the GTX 580. http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/2012-vga-gpgpu/19-Tom-s-Hardware-Index-C-Extreme,2977.html ^ You can see that the current leader is 33-44% stronger than the previous one. It is currently 60-65% the strength of a 690. Another 30% increase just makes sense. This isn't special, it should just be called a GTX 780. |
It's not a new generation. They could have made this last year if they hadn't screwed up the chip yields; it's just a giant Kepler.
In fact I maintain the yields are still screwed and they'll make 3 of these and <100 of the Quadros (which still don't have all shaders enabled).
