760ti is legit but the rest of the cards are the defintion of "meh". You can get a brand new 680 twin frozr for $440 (400 used) so the 770 isn't really that much of a deal at $450. The GTX 780 is only going to be like 20% faster than the 680 so its going to be hard to justify $150-200 more bucks on it versus just getting a 4GB 680 FTW/SC, 7970ghz, or GTX 770.
I have a strong feeling that alot of people will just wait for the volanic islands at the end of the year/Maxwell next summer or will get a used 680/7970ghz
[QUOTE="acanofcoke"]Anyone wanna buy 2x 680's?FaustArp
I actually might know a guy on another forum to possibly buy one, lemme PM him and ask if he wants the 770 at the announced price or buy a 680 (he said he waiting to make that decision).
Thinking I might sell them as a pair on FleecebayÂ
Also I'd rather sell them to someone in the UK who can come pick them up instead of posting ( cheaper ) and i'd like to show them working fine so I don't get somebody buy them then tell me they don't work when they fudge them up.

Ah, OK, try fleabay then.
Most people don't like the prices (minus the 760Ti) because there no real insentive to buy (as a consumer you want a deal). With the 680/7970ghz being 400-450 brand new (350-400 used) and the volanic island/maxwell not far from now, theres no real insentive to jump shipI'm not sure why everyone is up in arms about these prices, they seem reasonable to me...

I'm liking the 760 Ti for $299. Â That just might be the right replacement for my uber-clocked, but VRAM-light 560 Ti. Â
I almost did exactly what you stated (I had a gtx 560ti @1ghz and I was dying for an upgrade) but I eventually decided to get the GTX 660 SC for $170 and sell my old 560 ti for $135 (I only paid $35 out of pocket for twice the Vram and 25-30% more peformance). It should last me till the new Maxwell architecture which I can't wait to see (im guessing 40-50% boost over the 7xx series).I'm liking the 760 Ti for $299.

Mehh.. I can't see myself getting anything weaker than a GTX 670/760 Ti as an upgrade from a 560 Ti that has near 570 performance. Â I know that the 660 is a great value for sure.. just not a big enough upgrade. Â I'm also not willing to wait for Maxwell. Â
These prices aren't accurate for those of you that care.

As long as I can get a 760 Ti from a decent vendor for $329 or less, I think I'm game. Â
Oh I fully understand. The only reason I did it was because I hardly paid anything for it/it will have higher re-sell value come Maxwell time. Rumors have it that the 760Ti is a tad faster than a 670 (5-10% faster) so a decent overclock on it should pretty much give you stock 680 performance (thats amazing value for a mid range card).Mehh..

We shall see. Â Even if it's only a couple of percentage points better than a 670, I would be happy with it for $300. Â

That's a funky looking card.Now I'm hearing price is $650 and up for the 780.

these prices are going to be pretty high for at least 5 months, especially since AMD hasn't countered. Â Then again, nvidia always prices their cards high and they still manage to sell, so im going to bet the sheep won't care if they get fleeced.

I actually think it looks awesome...
How long is that thing?!650ti boost is the best value card out there.these prices are going to be pretty high for at least 5 months, especially since AMD hasn't countered.

surprisingly, yeah its really good, even the 660 is. Â But that is where the value ends with nvidia.

If the 760 Ti is $329 or less, the value is back. Â
[QUOTE="BPoole96"]I wish more cards would go for more than 2GB RAM and at least a 384 bit bus. I don't want to have to spend $450+ for those things.horgen123Wait another generation. Lets see how much the new console generation will affect the VRAM on the cards. Yeah I preferably want a 4GB card, so I'm hoping AMDs next lineup has a 4GB 8950 that doesn't cross the $400 mark
