i don't have any money now, but considering the 800 series will probably come out in 1-3 months, i might have it then. i was wondering, since i heard that the 880 will have 3200 maxwell cores, which are supposedly 1.5x kepler cores, will 1 880 be better than 2 780's?

All 800 series rumors are...well, rumors. 

 

They're pretty much all bullshit.

Gtx 880/GM204 will have 2560 cores. while Gm200 will be having 3200 cores on 20nm.

3200 cores on 28nm would be over 600mm and would cost more than gk110.

Go for another 780 when the gtx 880 comes out. it'll probably be cheaper.
