800 series?

[SlaughterSmurf]

Why does everyone think that less than 6 months since the 700 series Nvidea and the 780ti coming out Nvidea will all of the sudden release a new series of cards? Also even if they do will we really see a massive performance jump? With the huge price drop on the 780 and the new 780 ti is it really worth waiting for the next thing?

Because 6 months is next year. I'd suggest getting a GPU now, if you're going to.

Im actually hoping the 800 series comes out around fall 2014 as that is the perfect time for upgrading my computer for SC hahaha

Agreed haha, I'm planning a full platform and GPU upgrade around when Broadwell hits.

My thoughts exactly. That's why I'm still rocking my 560ti and 2500k. Several generations old and still fares well enough for me until SC demolishes PC requirements hahaha

I'm just hopeful that the rumor for the GM-110 chip having 6144 CUDA cores is true

whats this SC thing every ones talking about? (feel outta the loop)

dang thats gonna pack a punch.. and a half.

800 series is a LONG ways off, if you'd like a new card, wait a few weeks if you can, so the prices settle down

If i remember right Star Citizen but don't quote me on that.

I'm thinking the same thing.  Mainly because Maxwell is supposed to have some sort of Unified Memory Architecture and I am betting Broadwell will have support for DDR4 memory as a new standard.  Those two things combined will be a pretty big boost in performance beyond the standard progression of CPU/GPU performance.

It's the equivalent of putting four GTX 680s in a system with 100% SLI scaling

On the money That's the reason for my upgrade. Am pretty excited for what Broadwell has to offer, they're moving the voltage control back onto the motherboards which means cooler chips I plan on a full custom loop by then too

yes GM100 has 6144 cores I think (probably a dual-GPU solution);

Everything is here.
