This guy hit 1123Mhz on the Titan

Since they are going to be $1000, I cant stop wondering if I should just pick up a 600 series or just keep waiting.  I want Infinite to be as smooth as possible, and I know my 2x250s are my biggest bottleneck.

Well, that's it for me, I am done with Nvidia, so long, it was a good run while it lasted.

If they cant even have the respect to launch titan at 700 or even 750, then all I see is a middle finger to their buyers on the graphics side between promoting the 660 to 680 and now finally bringing the respin of what was supposed to be the 680 at literally twice the price it should be.

Sell the stock, pull out the soap and wash then hands, then hand some vaseline to the customers, and grab some popcorn. Nvidia has officially proved themselves a joke and that's all there is to it.

lack of amd competition or not, 999 for this card is well beyond just greed. I think I am gonna send an email to nvidia asking about their quote of how they learned their lesson about pricing with the gtx 280 and why it only took one architecture for them to forget.

You can also look at it as a cheap version of their 3k pro level cards.  I dunno, if it really is 2x as fast as a 680 the price is justified, but hard to swallow....  yes...... very hard.  I'll get two, see how it goes with my res, post reviews in here and what not.  Also, I am betting these are FASTER then the 7 series (except a dual GPU card) which will help them hold value for a year or two at least.

I have to agree yeah it might be 50% faster but the 680 was only 30% faster than the 580 and only had a price tag of 500+. This pure greed Nvidia Part and us normal people with regualr income are not going to be able to buy 999+ (1200 on newegg first day) Unless we charge it out of our ass I am also done with Nvidia they can suck it for now.

anyone up for 4 way-Sli by Origin
http://www.xbitlabs.com/n...GeForce_GTX_Titan.html

Origin, a maker of enthusiast PCs founded by former executives of Alienware, has developed the world’s first personal computer with four Nvidia Corp.’s GeForce GTX Titan graphics cards that will be cooled using a proprietary liquid cooling system. The high-end gaming PCs are expected to be available for order later this week.

 The 4-way multi-GPU system will come with increased frequencies and will be cooled-down using Cryogenic sealed liquid cooling solution jointly developed by Orgin and EK Water Blocks.

im with you afterburner. that price is stupid. and until i see real world results with drivers that work (the new ones are crap) im not believing anything.

I hope that we can all agree on this bolded part.  Until we see benches/games with a decent driver set, this is all hot air.  I am NOT saying Titan will not deliver, but rather the burden of proof rests with Nvidia.

Has there ever been an instance where NVIDIA priced a card where it didnt sell sufficiently enough?

Has there ever been an instance where NVIDIA priced a card where it didnt sell sufficiently enough?  I am pretty sure they have experts hired to weigh out the performance to the price accordingly with the supply and demand of the market.  The biggest reason I dont mind them chargin as much as they are is because of the limited quantity and the fact my financial obligations prevents me from having sufficient funds until mid to late May.  If they gave too good of a deal they could sell out before May and I would have to rob someone.

My reply to Volence's post was about performance and had zero to do with what you are talking about.  Did you misquote?  I am speaking directly to performance vs past cards with their present lackluster drivers.  Please tell me where I referenced pricing and quantities?   Or perhaps maybe I am misunderstanding you?

Also as others have pointed out, this does not look like a "limited run card"  It will be just like the 690 when it debuted and there will plenty around in a few months.  I hopped on the new card bandwagon so many times, I will probably wait a little while this time.

You were discussing the part in bold from Violence's post which was showing skepticism towards the price being worth the performance of the card considering Violence said the price was stupid.  I think that is relative to what I stated.

As far as limited quantities being a rumor.  My bad, I thought it was a fact the Titans are limited in quantity.

I basically agree with everything that Chris states here starting with the paragraph that begins with Enthusiasts: http://www.tomshardware.c...110-review,3438-7.html
Nonetheless I am still going to buy one as long as it is the fastest single GPU on the PC gaming market.  I have been wanting NVIDIA to come out with a single GPU card comparable to the dual GPU cards they keep on releasing that I hate so much.  And even more I have been waiting for the GK110 since I heard about a year ago that it should eventually be released.  Too much waiting and anticipation to back down now.  Also, these 2x GTX275 1792MB cards I have need to be replaced ASAP.  Although one will be used as dedicated physx when I get a Titan.

One thing that bothers me here is that so many people seem to be unable to see this for what it actually is.

The over pricing thing with Nvidia is a combination of their greed and amd's lack of an answer, but that's not all. What seems to slip through the cracks here is that they are conditioning consumers for a massive price hike on cards in general. With the titan, 690, and the 680 they were testing the water, and so far it seems the people are eating it up.

IE old pricing strategy.
xx0 500-650
xx4 250-400
xx6 99-225

Current
xx0 800-1000
xx4 400-600
xx6 150-350

Future
xx0 1200-2000
xx4 700-1100
xx6 400-600

If they pull it off, don't plan on AMD keeping it from happening. They would accept this price hike with open arms, the chance to price their card on par with nvidia. This almost seems like two step price fixing. Nvidia makes the first move jacking up pricing but making it look legit by placing an X80 badge on their offering, amd follows suite next gen. Stays there for a while then it continues.

ooooh nice find man, can't understand a word he's saying but that's not a bad OCing card at all.
