Are there any 780 OC vs 780 TI benchmarks

[OnkelCannabia]

In my country (Germany) the overclocked editions of the 780 are all cheaper than the standard editions right now. I can get the Super Jetstream, The Windforce and the DC2OC all cheaper than a standard GTX 780. The other models also aren't much more expensive. So the question is, how do these OC versions compare to a 780 TI? I really don't think the 780 TI would be worth it in comparison, but I'd like to know for sure.

Here's a video from Linus Tech Tips, all cards benchmarked have been overclocked

Get an aftermarket cooled 780 and overclock it, the 780 Ti isn't worth the extra cash

There isn't a big performance difference between an overclocked 780 and a 780Ti, not worth the price difference. The 780Ti is at best 20% faster than a stock 780, so if you get a good enough overclock on a 780, that 20% would almost disappear. But keep in mind that you could also overclock the 780Ti, and the fact that overclocking performance is not always guaranteed. The 780Ti is basically a standard 780 with a performance boost, just like any other Ti card compared to their non-Ti counterparts. But it doesn't deliver enough extra performance to justify the 40% price premium over the standard 780. Get yourself a good aftermarket 780, like the ASUS DirectCU II, EVGA ACX, or MSI Gaming.

Thanks. I just thought of something else, which hadn't occurred to me before. New games are probably going to be more CPU intensive due to the new console generation and games containing more physics. I have an 2500k which I could still overclock quite a bit. I have a good after market cooler lying around that I won at a quake tourney. But even with that it is still going to be a bottleneck sooner or later. I guess the really speaks against a 780 TI anyway.

The console CPUs are fairly weak so that 2500k should last you a fair while

This quote sticks out
"In raw processing terms, these four Jaguar cores have slightly less than a quarter the grunt of a Core i5-3570K. It’s the same story on a core-by-core basis. Less than one quarter of the performance."
