It’s been shown at an e-sport event:

I haven’t seen the sales announcements though, but they have been keeping this unusually under the radar, so it might just not have boomed across all news sites yet.
its finally here

There should be a 5GB one coming soon. That would put it ahead of the k5000 and the baseline Titan, with only the 6GB Titan and the preposterously priced (and still fermi based) quadro 6000 beating it.
Just give it a few.
I couldn’t wait and picked one up today. So far really happy with it, there is very noticeable improvement in all the apps I use and Octane is now a joy to use compared to my old GTX 470.
You got a 780 or a Titan? sounds like you got a 780 
I’m simply not doing enough right not to justify an upgrade, but unlike the lukewarm 5 and 6 the 7xx has my interest piqued.
Yea a 780. I upgraded from a 470 so the performance increase is quite noticeable for me. I also play games a lot on PC so it is nice for that as well
Care to fire up coulpe benchs if possible just to test out 780?
And do you by any chance have Softimage there, thre is nice bench script that would be great to test… or at least simple specviewperf
here is script:
Application.CreatePrim(“Cube”, “MeshSurface”, “”, “”)
Application.SetValue(“cube.polymsh.geom.subdivu”, 831, “”)
Application.SetValue(“cube.polymsh.geom.subdivv”, 800, “”)
Application.SetValue(“cube.polymsh.geom.subdivbase”, 800, “”)
Application.SetValue(“Camera.camvis.refreshrate”, True, “”)
Application.SetDisplayMode(“Camera”, “shaded”)
Application.DeselectAll()
Application.SetValue(“PlayControl.Out”, 5000, “”)
Application.DeselectAll()
Application.GetPrim(“Null”, “”, “”, “”)
Application.SelectObj(“Camera_Root”, “”, “”)
Application.CopyPaste(“Camera_Root”, “”, “null”, 1)
Application.SelectObj(“null”, “”, “”)
Application.SaveKey(“null.kine.local.rotx,null.kine.local.roty,null.kine.local.rotz”, 1, “”, “”, “”, “”, “”)
Application.SetValue(“PlayControl.Key”, 5000, “”)
Application.SetValue(“PlayControl.Current”, 5000, “”)
Application.Rotate("", 0, 8000, 0, “siAbsolute”, “siPivot”, “siObj”, “siY”, “”, “”, “”, “”, “”, “”, “”, 0, “”)
Application.SaveKey(“null.kine.local.rotx,null.kine.local.roty,null.kine.local.rotz”, 5000, “”, “”, “”, “”, “”)
Application.FirstFrame()
Just paste in script editor and run, after it is ifinished shoot play and it should read fps down there
I just ran this in a fresh install of Soft 2014. Had to change the “True” to “1” to get it to run.
Titan pegged and held steady right at “60.0+” on 320.18 driver.
check if v-sync is turned on?
if so that is reason why it is stuck at 60 (probably monitor refresh rate) and can’t show full speed.
there should be option to turn off v-sync either in nvidia control or something
also with shift-s in viewport and Stats there is Show vertical sync status to see if it is on or off.
if it isn’t too much to bother you with
really interested to see if it beats my 7970 and if so it would be nice reason to upgrade and get card that can do some redshift GPU rendering as well
If that is the case and there is nice diference in there I would sell both my 7970 for faster viewport + CUDA but lets see if that will be the case really looking into
Turned v-sync off but Soft doesnt seem to be obeying that.
I will say you will not be disappointed in Titan for CUDA rendering. In our testing a single Titan beats a Quadro K5000+Tesla K20X in Arion pretty easily. $1K for Titan. $7K for Quadro + Tesla combo.
actually I was looking more into 780. from some reviews is doesn’t fall too much behind performance wise but price wise pretty much.
but still would love to see v-sync off results as any card now can push that to steady 60fps.
for example here are some results I did when I replaced gt580 with 7970:
GTX580:
cinebench OpenGL: 60
Softiamge, cube subd 831x800x800 shaded view rotation: ~17fps, after totating it for like 30sec or something it speeds up to 80fps. doesn’t work all the time.
Maya 1 riged cahracter simple scene: rotating cam 35fps-40fps, playing 4-5fps
HD7970:
cinebench OpenGL: 90
Softiamge, cube subd 831x800x800 shaded view rotation: ~90fps, no need for half of min rotation, goes smooth from start.
Maya 1 rigged character simple scene: rotating cam 70fps-115fps, playing 24-26fps
Same system just card replaced. Witht that much performance gain in viewport and CUDA rendering not so high in proprity list back then that was simple solution.
Now with redshift testing and looking so sweet, time to look at some CUDA cards again. Maybe They also mentioned working on OpenCL version to but not any time soon 
hi
amd opteron 8350 at stock + 7970 at stock settings 172,5 fps. Catalyst 13.4
Cinebench 72,2 fps
best regards
Sven, render4you
that sounds abut right. forgot those are ooold results with some old drivers.
Getting ~170 in Si 2013, a bit lower in SI 2014 which I’m not happy to see but…
Also after some overclocking play it pushed up to 200fps.
In any case compared to gtx580 it was world apart. Now wondering about titan and 780
I get this when I try to run that script:
ERROR : Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub - [line 1]
