Visiting Asia has its treats. From a foot massage in Hong Kong to a 55" 4K panel in Shenzhen for $1600, it's easy to find what are you interested in. It is also easy to listen to the beat of the street. One such find are three new Nvidia boards coming in the next couple of weeks, boards that will push to fill all the gaps in the product stack.

First and foremost, few weeks back, several websites leaked the news about a part called GeForce GTX Titan LE, a board based on cut down GK110 GPU silicon. The leak was right, since this will actually be a consumer version of Tesla K20C, the 2496-core part with 5GB of GDDR5 memory. The name will not be the GTX Titan LE, though. Meet the GeForce GTX 780 5GB. Just as the GTX Titan was a consumer version of the K20X (2688-core part, 6GB GDDR5 memory), K20A/C is getting a consumer version as well. The performance is about 30% faster than a single GTX 680. You can expect this board to launch (hard launch, availability from Day 0) in the final days of May, as the Computex train starts to heat up. Pricing unknown, but you should prices anywhere between $499 and $599.

Second board will be the GeForce GTX 770. This is actually based off a GK104-425 die e.g. nothing more than a higher clocked GTX 680. Estimated performance is 20-25% better than GTX 670, on pair with the regular GTX 680. This is still a 256-bit interface part, with 4GB GDDR5 memory to be more prominently featured than a 2GB one. Nvidia's product stack calls for 6GB Titan, 5GB GTX 780, 4GB GTX 770 and 2GB GTX 760 Ti. Launch is allegedly scheduled for mid-May, as a precursor to the GTX 780.

Which brings us to the third product, the GeForce GTX 760 Titanium. GTX 760 Ti, sorry. This part is based on the same die as GTX 670; GK104-225. The board comes with 2GB GDDR5 memory and will do everything to put pressure on AMD's HD 7800 and 8800 line of OEM cards. Performance is targeting 20-23% increase from the standard GTX 660 Ti, and this is the part that will launch at the 2013 Computex Taipei trade show.

Naturally, there's a possibility that Nvidia will launch all three parts together and claim the best product stack for gamers out there.

Until Maxwell (GMxxx) arrives in 2014, do not expect new silicon from Nvidia. Come to think, AMD is also holding back its Volcanic Islands (VI) for the tail end of 2013 or in 2014. Next-gen processes cannot come soon enough for these companies... and yes, FinFET transistor on a 10-figure transistor count is a big challenge.

I am very surprised to see that NVIDIA is striking first with the 700 series.  I just don't see NVIDIA pricing the GTX 780 at $499-$599 with the titan currently priced at $999.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see the 780 priced within that range, but something's going to have to give regarding the Titan's pricing.  I just don't see NVIDIA having the 780 (which is essentially the light edition of the Titan) being $400-$500 cheaper than the Titan.

maybe a 790 will be a very viable option with 5gb of vram. if they make one

Hasnt Intel already been doing this with the extreme editions? Example.. i7 3960x vs i7 3930k.... really not a whole lot that is different between the two so i guess you could say the 3930k is the 'lite' version of the 3960x and yet it's close to $500 less....

I see it happening prices will drop on the titian I am sure as well, just like the 8800 Ultra, started off around almost 1k middle to close to eol it was 500-600. Look at the Core I7 970 when it came out, before intel called eol for 1366/x58 setups the price dropped from the almost 900 down to 500-600. I would love to buy a titian but at this time not willing to dish out 700-1k for a single gpu anymore. If I am spending that much I would rather dump it under the hood of my stang, if they would had been 500ish I would had jumped on it.

If GTX 780 really priced at $499-$599, I would LOL at those who bought the mighty Titan!

Titan owners paid to get the best before everyone else, that is the premium-- and I assume they know that and weren't strapped for cash or otherwise insecure about their purchases to worry about GTX780, except the intent to get it and save cash.  
 
Overall, if someone could afford to wait for the same performance but cheaper, they will have up to 5 yrs to do so; by then, Titan's power would become available as a future integrated video-- a concept which blows my mind, but very possible by the year 2018.  Sandy Bridge HD3000 = 7900GTX and Trinity's HD7660G = HD3870 where both were 5 years apart from a previous generation high-end to the integrated equivalent later on.

Apparently two people care... No offend, but I still LOL.. even now.

As Lehpron noted, people who purchased Titan were never looking at dollar to performance ratio tough guy.  Maybe those Titan owners are enjoying their cards too much to care what you are thinking? 

As for me, it will be a while before I need gaming video cards.  Most likely I will pick up the new AMD offerings closer to the end of the year.

So if this is official its a lot sooner than we thought huh? I better start selling my pair of 680's FTW+ may right around the corner.

It is a rumour at this point. So i wouldn't be in a hurry to sell your old card.

interesting... so my current 670 SLI is becoming equal to 760Ti SLI, good enough!
 
holding on to those cards as long as VRAM limits are not a problem ... and they shouldn't in 1080p!

lol same here, 4GB VRAM will be more then enough for 1080P and last a while, todays games are just now breaking the 2GB barrier at that resolution.

heh, well, ekhm, I'm running reference 2GB card models here ... it's still plenty ... but the latest titles might become troublesome at maxed out eye candy I'm sure hehe. frankly, I don't play latest titles, so it doesn't bother me much ... 2GB should last a while too, will think about upgrade someday in future, not now, not in next 6 months probably.

 
well I've run into the mistake of getting GPU's with not enough vram in the past and I didn't want to do that again, better to stay ahead from now on.
 
Besides I'm also one that mods games with High Resolution Texture Packs, and that eats up the VRAM fast as well.

I'm still happy with my GTX 570 1.2Gb but that GTX 780 sounds like it might be a good buy. I'm really waiting for Maxwell though.

This is what I'm thinking as well....assuming all those prices are true, then a 780 and 770 look to be darn good upgrades
 
780 = slightly nerfed Titan with 5gb VRAM and $500-$600?  Possibly GPU Boost 2.0 as well?  Thats not shabby at all considering Titan is $1k
 
770 = It's basically an overclocked GTX 680 with 4gb VRAM at $400....and possibly feature GPU Boost 2.0.....thats not bad at all considering 4gb GTX 680's are over $500 right now
 
760Ti = Basically a overclocked 670 with the same 2gb VRAM that we all come to expect...I'm not too impressed since I already own GTX 670's in SLI....but at $300 a pop....with the possibility of GPU Boost 2.0, it might be a nice package for the mid range gamer
 
Overall I see this refresh similar to how the 400-500 unfolded....except for the GTX 780, that will be the major wild card there....if NV can bring some serious bang for the buck at that $500-$600 range, then I'm buying two for SLI this summer....Gotta get ready for BF4 this winter

I doubt the 770 and 780 will be that cheap, considering 670 and 680 are already in the $400 - 600 range. the article did say prices were unknown.

Yeah everything is unknown at this point...but I was just going by those specs and prices....they are pretty much all over the internet at this point....The GTX 780 is too good to be true at $500, I can certainly agree with that....but the 770 and 760Ti, I can see it being a reality, both specs and price
