Given the rumored specs of the card (do a quick google search), what kind of increase do you think I will get from my single SC 780? Trying to see if the rumored $500-$600 price will be worth it or to just wait until the next wave.

    880 would be equivalent performance difference as a gtx 780 vs 780 ti?

    Unless money is of no concern, I've always went by the "every other rule" I doubt you will be seeing any massive gains going from an already high end current generation card. If you were stepping up from a 680, that would be a different story. Unless Nvidia & AMD deiced to step out of the normal marketing(which they won't), gains will be the same as they have been from generation to generation.

    That would be a good thing.

    I'm waiting for when the non 800 Vanilla series of GPUs comes out. I'm being very patient for this stuff. If ppl just buy a boatload of Vanilla 880s when they come out, they might not like it when the Ti and Classified Models come out. Even the 870s as well.

    I wouldn't expect a major performance increase if the 880 remains 28nm, because there's only so much that can be done within the same die size / power constraints without ending up with another massive power-guzzling chip. 
     
    Also if the rumors are true the 880 GTX will be the GM204 core, while the full-size GM200 core will launch later as the Titan II. If this is the case then a 20nm version of the Titan II will be the next sweet-spot... only question is if it will be called the 880 Ti, or the 980 GTX when it arrives.  All theory and conjecture of course, it'd doubtlessly be a year after the 880 launches before the 900's have a chance to show up. Then again the 480 -> 580 transition was a mere 8-month gap so nobody really knows. It all hinges on when 20nm production finally ramps enough for NVIDIA to properly use.

    Rumors are the 880 (GM204) will be faster than a 780 Ti(GK110). Assuming a 880 Ti will come later (GM210), I think we'll see a decent boost in performance.

    Aren't rumors suggesting the GTX 880 is not the successor to the 780/780 Ti?  GM204 like the above poster said, not GM200 or GM210.  We'll have to wait and see if it beats the 780/780 Ti at larger resolutions.  If you're only at 1080p and plan to stay there for a while, then you don't have to think too hard on this.
