What im more excited about is actually the new Memory technologies. GDDR5 is yesterdays news. And with new and drastically better solutions around the corner, paying a small fortune for something soon to be dated.... I wouldnt do it.
We need new process node (we ve been 28nm too long) and we need hybrid memory cube technology. Both things are really close to happending and when they do, there will a be a massive shift in power consumption (going down) and performance sky rocketing.
Its just a bad time to invest 1000$+ in a GPU, 6months from now you could see it being beat by a 200$ card. |
Oh please. As if better memory will increase processing power. The 12gig VRAM in the Titan are irrelevant. It's all about the shaders and it's fair to assume that this card will be about 30-40% stronger than the 980, which is what people are really after.
And better cards in 6 months? I think the 390X will already have a hard time beating the Titan in power and that is pretty much the only card that will come out in the next 6 months. The next good cards are not coming before 2016 and it would be stupid to wait if you need a good rig now.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
