The new GeForce GTX 780 is all about hyper-realistic gaming and next generation technology. The GeForce GTX 780 features the same record-breaking GK110 GPU used in GeForce GTX TITAN. The massively powerful NVIDIA Kepler ™ based GPU contains 50% more cores than its GTX 680 predecessor AND comes with 3GB of high-speed GDDR5 and NVIDIA GPU Boost 2.0 technology. GeForce GTX 780's 384-bit memory interface provides up to 288.4GB/sec of peak memory bandwidth to the GPU. All this combines to give you over a 40% gaming performance upgrade.

Load of crap. Kepler cards are not getting worse. Maxwell cards are just getting better as the engineers learn to optimise for the new architecture. All optimisation for kepler has been done.

it's a good card yes but Nvidia have gimped previous gen card's for the latest drivers so people will but Maxwell, I've got a a 780 Ti and on paper that should completely demolish the 970 but it's only 5%-10% better at best on average in game's.

Nvidia has been causing issues for older gen cards (aka not 900 series) as my 780 has lost its edge due to driver updates.

Perfect timing if you are wanting to reach the recommended specs for Fallout 4:

Mate, actual trend is to decrease TMUs and CUDA cores, and increase ROPs (having faster chips, memory and more IPS factor at the same time). The same story was with GTX 660Ti and its successor - GTX 760. First has more CUDA cores and texture units, but it's slower a bit due to less ROPs (which give a boost in AA modes in higher res as well). Paper is not everything. Offer is very tempting.

Has performance decreased with driver releases then?

I did a little research and turns out this card is very good under load when it comes to noise levels (and also when not under load). I just inherited a new computer so I have picked this up to give it a little GFX boost.

I wouldn't be surprised if they went after the first few minutes. Still waiting for conformation of payment.

Yep I am still awaiting confirmation - fingers crossed.
edit: it's been shipped!

Latest drivers are giving me worse performance on the same games that should not have changed it at all, have to revert all the way back to 353.38 to get some actual gpu usage (as low as 30% in Tera for example in the latest, however going back to the earlier driver and full 99% usage with no slideshow frames).
Don't know why people are arguing there has been no crippling, they clearly have been dropping fixes for the previous series.

Looks like their website cant handle the demand, unable to load anything on their site at the moment.

They have a 770 at £100 quid and I think everyone just went overclockers crazy
