Should I wait for Nvidia 700 series?

Fury Dharok · May 11, 2013

I heard that gtx 770, 760, 780 all getting released at the end of May. I'm getting Also getting 670 at the end of may. But is it a REALLY big performance difference between 770 and 670 or is it just a rumor?

Well the rumor spec is 1536 CUDA cores for the GTX 770, so it will be close or match the performance of the GTX 680. It will be better to wait and see what the benchmarks will churn out.

With them just being a rehash of 600 series with hardware and driver tweaks etc, expect a performance increase of 10-15%

Basically from what I have been reading the GTX 770 is similar in power to a GTX 680 for less money, while the GTX 780 is somewhere in performance between a 680 and a Titan.

Do n't buy anything when the revised/new parts are only days away; Odds are they'll be an improvement and you'll just kick yourself for being impatient and purchasing parts that are now 'obsolete'.

Then again brand new releases sometimes have bugs that take months to fix.

Well if it's not announced by the end of may, i'm getting a 670

Keep your eyes open

!
But you could do worse than a GTX670.

TBH the 670 isn't really that much better than the 570, if you're only playing games, I'm thinking of waiting and checking the benchmarks, think I'll still stick with my x3 factory oc 570s.... for now anyway.

And next year the Maxwell's are out, there's still no game that I can't play in ultra with my 2 year old 570s.

I have £1600 put by for an upgrade, oh well best to be careful and wait I guess.

das_stig :

Seems a waste of cash to upgrade every year tbh, not really getting a massive boost in performance.

captmac7 · May 13, 2013

The cards won't have much difference in performance, but I would highly recommend waiting for financial reasons, the700 series are supposed to be $100 cheaper than their current equal 600 card, and obviously, new tech means the price of old tech would drop.

Find that hard to believe.

I agree

Well damn it.

Deaven · May 14, 2013

Its just a rumor, so its not confirmed. They can come out late May =)

smeezekitty :

They're not exactly brand new though are they?

smeezekitty · May 14, 2013

But it might take a while in the wild for the bugs to be found.

Mousemonkey · May 14, 2013

smeezekitty :

Being as they are just a refresh they should be fairly bug free I would have thought, I don't recall my 560's having any bugs and they were a refresh of the 4xx's.

Johnny505 · May 21, 2013

I still have a 480 bro. All a ya' upgradin' n' bein' with the times. I say wait for the 700 series, because it should be here relatively soon.

Fury Dharok · May 23, 2013

Aaaannnnd 780 is out, seriously that thing is really identical to GeForce Titan's performance, probably an EVGA gtx 780 superclocked could outperform a geforce gtx titan which 780 is 350$ less. but ofc it wont outperform an evga SC titan
