Hello all,

My dad is going to be buying a new pc soon, and the 290x is well within his budget. I have asked him, and he is willing to trade a 290x for my titan. Should I do it?

More about : titan 290x

I'm an NVIDIA guy but ...almost half price for a card that beats the Titan? Why does this topic even exist ? : )

Edit: Hell, if I only knew back then, I would have not bought a GTX 780 and would have kept my SLI 560's until now, then got a 290X myself...

Yes the 290X hands down, beats the Titan and for a little more than half the price, it is a no brainer! 290X all the way! But hold off a few and get one with aftermarket cooler

Or, theoretically, I could consider going titan sli. Will the Titan's price drop significantly due to the release of the 290x?

It might but it would be big for them to half the price, because they'd have to in turn half all their cards prices and I don't see them going that low, I see the Titan maybe going down to 800

Yeah, problem is, it costs 1300 dollars over here, so a jump of 200 wouldn't really help it become affordable.

Yeah the price is ridiculous at 1000 let alone 1300
