They started shipping test boards on May 5th, so, assuming nothing goes wrong (the way it did with the 400 series),they should be out anytime between the end of the summer and the end of the year.Where did you hear this? All rumors so far point to high end maxwell not releasing until the end of this year, or even early 2015.

The boards shipping? From this article:http://www.legitreviews.com/let-nvidia-geforce-gtx-880-...
dear god, if that is true i am going to rope up!
I just spent $525 for a gtx 780 ftw
and this 880 will be between $450- $550!
tell me that my luck is not this shitty?

I don't want to be negative or anything but, a GTX 880 at 500$ (or more) will be 10% faster than a GTX 780 TI? I'm not sure about anybody else but from what I remember the 780 ti was built in response to the R9 290X and replace the Titan as flagship, if an 880 is to come out this soon with that low a price it would be nearly unbelievable, and lastly I noticed something like 3200 CUDA cores in the 880, the 780 TI again, I'm emphasizing that it's Ti card has something like 2300 CUDA cores, that big a jump seems a little strange to me. Also, I noticed that the article is saying 8GB of GDDR5!?, isn't that the same amount found in the R9 295X2 which is a monstrous dual GPU 1500$ card? And just in response to MagicPants post about wether I should wait or not, I am not upgrading it is for an entirely new rig.

If somehow the 880 does come out at that price with that performance i will have to take a huge loss on a 780 i just got.
I will have to sell the 780 and take the loss because at $550 or even $650 i am going to want a 880 no doubt!

everything i have read is pointing towards Q1-Q2 of 2015, something about the mfg for the new chips being delayed.
historically ti GPU’s hold their own vs the new generation cards. There is no solid evidence for the specs of the new cards yet, it’s all just speculation and what people would like to see in the new cards, same goes for the price nobody knows for sure.
Consider this, with technology moving as fast as it is there is always going to be a new more powerful GPU right around the corner, are you always going to wait for the better card? When do you just say enough? I would get the best GPU you can afford, live life and move on. If you get a 780 ti you are going to have enough power to last through the next generation or two of GPU’s. worry about upgrading/SLIing when you need to.

The thing that I found most outrageous on that article is the 8GB VRAM , I can't even think of a task that would utilize that much unless your a developer of some sort, and the 3200 CUDA cores also seemed a little bit sketchy considering that the 780 ti is a ti variant card which from what I remember signifies more CUDA cores, and the 880 is not, unless the article has the specs for the 880 ti which seems a little bit more probable. And the message I'm getting seems to be to just buy the 780 lightning.

If that article is true then 880 is only 10% more powerful than 780ti. Right and why so much more Vram then?
A stock 780ti has 3G's and this one is supposed to have 8g's???
am i missing something here? talk about a bottleneck in itself
what i mean is that if the 780ti had 8g's of vram would it be able to utilize it all? and the 880 is only 10% more powerful?
It just does not add up

you do know this is just b.s right, the new architecture will only come out Q2 of next year because the 20nm technology cant be ready with DDR3 support or so NVidia says but anyway they say only Q2 of next year will the have the new gpu's out mind you they wont be fully unlocked and you will have t wait for the 900 series to have pure 4k pleasure
anyway the 870 should be around 780ti lvl with less power and the 880 shout just be bellow the 295x2
get the 780 now and worry about that stuff latter

I just settled for a lightning because it is generally considered to have good build quality and I found it on sale, and the general consensus seems that the GTX 870 and 880 will release in 2015, correct me if i'm wrong. Also, just in response to Shasha's post, where are you getting that the 880 and 870 will release in Q2 next year?

I have an EVGA GTX 780 Ti Superclocked with ACX cooling and I really don't see the 800 series matching its power for another year or two. More than likely the 800 series will be close to being redesigned versions of many of the 700 series GPUs with the ability to get them cooler overall thanks to smaller internal architecture. After many of the newer GPU manufacturers have adjusted to the smaller architecture I think that they would then start working on really improving it. So if you already have a card that can run games at high-ultra settings, then I would wait until the 900 series is released.

I like EVGA's SuperClocked and Classified editions, they have great coolers and overclock very well. PNY does not have as high quality chips or coolers but they have a lifetime warranty.you mentioned sc and classified are these any good for the OP?

I was also wondering something else, from what i've read, DirectX 12 will only be supported on the 800 series and beyond and not the 700 series, is this true?http://www.legitreviews.com/nvidia-highlights-directx-1...
And there are other articles you can google too, but yes 700 series will get DirectX 12 support.

Yes that is a great product. EVGA really makes some awesome GPUs.

Just wanted to update this thread about the possible release of the 800 series, while it is possible that test boards have been shipped I stumbled upon many articles stating that Nvidia has been hit with manufacturing delays which have pushed back the 800 series, and also many people seem to think that the 880 is in-fact around 650$-750$, which would make more sense if it were to perform closer to a 780ti.

the classified(or the kingpin) are by far the best gk110 based cards.

And it looks like a PS2 game most of the time. For real next gen games, 8gb vram doesn't seem so far fetched.

Will a 750 Ti cut it for PhysX as I have one of those to?Not sure seeing how you already have both the cards you can easily test them. tho the 650 will hurt performance and the 750 should gain but its only a couple of benchmarks and some screws to try if your power supply is up to it. a 750ti could be a good option as it has very low power and is close to a 660ti specs

I don't think that's correct it's closer to a 650 ti boost but not a 660ti
