Ahead of its August 7, 2013 reveal date, MSI has released three teaser images of the GeForce GTX 780 Lightning graphics card.

MSI has once again teased its upcoming GeForce GTX 780 Graphics Card with a new set of three images that reveal the cooler’s “Lightning” branding, show off the GPU rector’s design cues and MSI’s new “Propeller Blade” cooling fan that seems to have taken a few leads from Nvidia’s reference cooler for the GTX 690 and GTX Titan graphics card.

    What about a Titan, GTX 690 or HD 7990?
    I would consider all superior to a GTX 780...

    But can it run Crysis3 in 4k resolution with 8x MSAA at 60fps? If not, then the card is already obsolete.

    Some people prefer the lack of frame latency that you get with a single GPU. Did you know that sales of the Titan exceeded in just a few months the total the GTX 690 sold in its year and a half on the market?

    The Lightnings are the best of the generation. My 680 Lightnings are as fast as a reference 780, because they can overclock like monsters (30%+ overclocks are easy).

    Now I have to decide if I want to upgrade from the 680's to 780 Lightning SLI. BF3 @ 1440p already has trouble reaching 85 fps in some maps, which is the refresh rate of my monitor. I don't think the situation is going to improve with BF4.
