Nvidia, the BLACK IS BACK(now say black back as fast as you can) oh and the gtx 790

[Blade of Grass]

Just to clarify everything that has been going on in terms of debating light and colour.

 

You guys are talking about two different types of colour. Additive and subtractive. 

 

When talking about light, you're talking about additive colours. You start with nothing (black), and then start adding light to get additional colours. When all colours are present, you get white.

 

When talking about physical objects, and their colour, you're talking about subtractive colour. You start with every colour (white), and then you start removing (i.e. absorbing) them to get other colours. This is because light emits its own light (i.e. colours), whereas physical objects reflect (or scatter) light.

They work in opposite ways.

I think that if the 790 was to come out, its going to consist of two 780 or 780TI on a single PCB to form a 790. I also think that the Titan 2 will be a higher binned Titan. 

[iNothing]

Another card I can't get *sigh* 

[iisshaun]

Well that's easily photoshopped, the "Titan 2" and "790" are the exact same photo as the Titan you have there, just with changed colours on the heat sink. Fake, moving along.

you realize black is the absence of color right? not absorbing all colors, that would be white

White reflects all color, black absorbs it.

Ok, on topic please...

[CatCloud]

Waait the 790 only have 3 gb ram? yeah my 690 wont be replaced for another generation.

[Skylark]

In the article they said 5Gb/GPU

 

Also, why are there 777 people viewing this topic

Where does it say that?

People care about colours, or the lack of. It's all a matter of perspective :-P

[CatCloud]

A few rows under "Enter the 790" part.

Check the link, that part was taken from a table and didnt format correctly

If the Titan 2 or w/e it will be called is black, I really hope it's black anodized aluminium, however unlikely that is. It would look so sexy.

[Tjc222]

Cool. Another card no real person can afford.

Yay for poor Murica'

oooh ok will do when i get home!

Wrong.  If an object to your eye appears blue, then the object is ALL colors EXCEPT blue.  This is because blue reflects off the object and into your eye.  So, the genuine color of everything is the opposite of what your eye sees.

[JayDom]

if the 790 is dual gpu it will be like the 690 reference cooler, but somehow i think its hidden because it'll be a new design cooler, if its even real.

 

why are you's talking about colours anyway?

It depends on whether you are talking about additive or subtractive colours. 

 

Additive colours create colours by ADDING to the spectrum, i.e. if all colours were added, you would get white. This is how a computer screen generates colours and the three primary additive colours are red, blue and green which can be used to make up all other colours, hence the RGB system. 

 

Subtractive colours create colours by REMOVING from the spectrum, e.g. with paint. When you add different colours of paint, they will absorb more wavelengths of light and hence, thus, if you add all colours, you will get black as no colours are reflected. The primary colours with the subtractive system are red, blue and yellow.

WTF Does this have to do with the OP. OUT! haha

Calm down buddy, was just adding to another post by another member, no need to get butthurt. 

[ThatAngryGnome]

You know what they say, once you go black...

I guess you could say it runs MUCH faster

[geogga]

Ok yea lets talk about color for 3 pages

 

seriously

 

ok B2T...If we were to base our predictions on the specs, how big of an increase would the 790 get over the 690 and 780TI?

[Ertman]

Wrong. If an object to your eye appears blue, then the object is ALL colors EXCEPT blue. This is because blue reflects off the object and into your eye. So, the genuine color of everything is the opposite of what your eye sees.

So orange.

I have wonders about that too...

Also... what you perceive as blue may not look like blue to me or anyone else. This is because the visualization of colour is based on our brains processing signals from our eyes which are designed to detect the electrmagnetic spectrum.

Eh, not sure if it can Crysis...
