I'm not clear thought if this is supposed to be a Test GPU or a consumer version (700 series)...

Both. It's a consumer GPU, but mostly a PR part they don't intend to make nor sell many of.

Don't expect the price to come down; the yields on a GPU that size are terrible, judging by the fact that no public version of this GPU has less than two functional units disabled.

So basically unless you're running multiple monitors and want a min of 60fps at max settings, there's no reason to pick up this card. Seems like total overkill otherwise.

Well, you could pick it up for other reasons and it not be overkill (which is a loose term for me, anyway, since nothing stays "too much" for long). It just better suits more complex setups.

True, but I mean like are there any games out there that actually take full advantage of these high end cards other than say some of the crazy mods people make for games like Crysis?  it just seems like a card like that would be overkill for 99% of today's PC games, and most games coming out within the next couple years or so.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Holy cow 7bn transistors, double the amount of a gtx680.

"The GeForce Titan GPU would deliver almost 85% of the performance of a reference GeForce GTX 690 and would require two 6-Pin connectors to power the 235W GK110 mammoth. You heard it right folks, the GPU ‘GeForce Titan’ with its single GK110 core would be able to churn out the same kind of performance as a Dual GK104 GTX 690 GPU would."

God daamn.

This reminds me early this gen, when 8800 series were hyped as fuck for being able to run Crysis! Good times coming.

I'm not convinced we will see it any time soon. From what I have read, many features of the 680 suggest that they could easily make it more powerful, but have no need to due to poor competition from AMD...

But from a personal perspective, I am not hugely interested in this. My 670 runs nearly everything on ultra at 60fps (stupid FC 3 puts it down to 30 with everything on ultra and v-sync on), so my plan was to get another one in ready for Total War: Rome 2 and other games later this year, when graphics should take a jump for next gen consoles. It is the "Maxwell" generation that is more interesting to me

Out of curiosity what game can't you run with a current crop of cards that causes you to be giddy over this card? 8800 GTX was the first card to properly run Crysis on max (in SLI) but today, 670 or 7950 are good enough to max out most games, as long as you go easy on AA.

My whole PC costed less.... $500 less....

Watch_Dogs will probably be the next Crysis.

Possibly...but I think Crytek has learned their lesson and knows how to optimize(and cut corners) to make things work great on lower specs.

I'd love to see a game that rapes the current PC specs and makes everyone get liquid ice to cool their overclocked GPUs.
