FRONTPAGE NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 780 Graphics Card Review

Overclockers.com · May 23, 2013

In the lead-up to Computex, NVIDIA is heading the pack, releasing their new GEFORCE GTX 780. This is their flagship for the GTX 700-series. While TITAN should remain at the top of NVIDIA’s single-GPU lineup, the GTX 780 – based off of the same GK110 GPU – shouldn’t be any slacker. Read on and we’ll show you just how close the GTX 780 can get!

First!

reading through it now.

First of all, excellent review (as always), Jeremy.

Secondly, very impressive for a single card. The only issue I can think of is that it is the price of two 7970s (appoximately) and will be outperformed by those in most circumstances.

Well, i was wrong... About the shopped comment... xD

After reading: **** son, that's one hell of a card...

Dayum that's wicked noice! Sweet writeup as usual Hokie! :thup:

ATMINSIDE · May 23, 2013

Nicely done Hokie!

Very intrigued by ShadowPlay.

Also, that thing is a BEAST! Can't wait to see factory OC versions coming out.

Thanks guys!

Oh, I forgot to mention in the article - NVIDIA expects plenty of availability to meet demand. To wit, there are nine cards listed on Newegg right now. They are determined to keep this from being another GTX 680 (which nobody could get).

Dayyyyum.

Great review, right now, I am excited! :clap:

I guess you'll find me by the window waiting for the post man.

Shadowplay is looking like a really nice feature. I think Nvidia will be the go-to card of anyone who records themselves gaming. The reduced overhead will make Nvidia the go-to card for Lets players and the like.

Bobnova · May 23, 2013

Why is Nvidia comparing it to a GTX580? That's like, ancient.
70% higher performance (in theory...) and 225% higher price

I was hoping to see some full retail board photos.

Leegit · May 23, 2013

They should have added in SLI 670s/680s to those comparisons :/

Noshei · May 23, 2013

Have you guys gotten any word from EVGA on time frame on hydro copper?

Leegit · May 23, 2013

What's so great about Hydro Copper? I'm n00b.

Sold out already... that was fast

hokiealumnus · May 23, 2013

Negative Noshei, no word on Hydro Copper.

That said, TITAN blocks should still work on the GTX 780, it's the same PCB with a few minor changes that don't affect cooler mounting holes/GPU/vRAM positioning.
