Will There Be A Non Reference GTX 780?

I currently have an Asus GTX 570 Direct Cuii triple slot card. I am going to be upgrading to the 780 very soon. I am wondering if Asus or anyone else will be making non reference cards.

Gigabyte already has a windforce 780 made (not for sale yet). http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Gigabyte/GeForce_GTX_780_OC/

Although I hear the reference cooler performance very well, is quite, and it looks awesome.

Me: Yeah I just really can't get my H220 working again, I've tried everything that was suggested in the forum.

Brian (Swiftech Support): Hmm, have you tried slapping it?

to answer your question yeah custom cards would be out ... manufacturers do this to differentiate. 

on another note i think your post may fall under  repost look here>> http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/19242-gtx-780-when-are-customs/

(1) high frame rate (2) ultra graphics settings (3) cheap...>> choose only two<<...

 

if it's never been done then i'm probably tryna do it. (((((((Bass so low it HERTZ)))))))

780's with custom coolers have already been announced by Gigabyte and EVGA.

 

Concerning non-reference PCB designs:

As far as I know, NVIDIA has not yet clarified whether board partners will be given the green light to develop non-reference PCB design 780's. In my opinion, I doubt they'll be allowed to since a non-reference 780 like MSI's Lightning Edition, ASUS' Matrix, EVGA's Classified etc would easily kill the Titan and they don't want that to happen since it's still a cash cow for them.

you realize that a GTX 780 is already very quiet right?

It is quiet until you start overclocking. To keep it under 80 C to stop thermal throttling you need a beefier cooler because the blower fan has to ramp up a lot more which makes it louder. At stock yes it is quiet just like my GTX 680 is quiet at stock settings. Overclocked it is a different story though.

You could change the cooler? Get an Arctic Cooling Twin Turbo or something?

Hope so, but they want to milk the reference cards as much as they can before they launch those I suppose. :|

Ah the wait...

Whats wrong with the standard 780 design, i recon it looks damn awesome, And i heard the card runs pretty cool with the stock cooler on.

Custom PCB usually have better VRM and whatnot and allow for better overclock performance.

Yes. Custom cooled 780's will be out soon. Someone like Asus or MSI should implement better VRMs so that the card can stay at a higher boost clock.

Haha. Runs at 80C due to GPU boost 2.0

That's some weird fan design.. wonder how the noise levels/cooling fare vs the standard ones.

 

Probably going ASUS this time.  Been with MSI for a while but they've had a design flaw in all their Twin Frozr fan designs so I really don't want to use another card by them unless they fix it.

 

Really wish they'd come out already.  The 760 is almost out; need that upgrade! :(
