What about a regular Titan or a Titan Black?

No point. They are both dead in the gaming market..

Should we challenge him to do it? :> De-solder some LEDs and solder orange ones :D

 

Are they actually green LEDs, or are they white LEDs with green filter? Not that either is particularly difficult to mod, but one is easier than the other.

If you can get one cheap a Titan Black is still really good. A 780 Ti at stock is still equal to 980 at stock, more or less, but with more vram for all of the Shadow of Mordor 4K textures

The newer nVidia reference cards (like 980Ti) generally have green rubber insead of white with green paint. So you'll have to do a bit more research before attempting the mod.
