So I had a Radeon 5450 laying around that I decided to install in my PC for shyts and giggles.


Titanfall running on low/off settings @ 720P produced 10-20fps max.

the 680 GTX was around that price range but the 780 GTX wasnt when it first came out (probably had something to do with the Titan coming out inbetween the 680 GTX and 780 GTX and them testing the higher price ranges)

but the 780 GTX did not sale NO WHERE near as good as the 680 GTX (without looking up stats, just know that I could find a 780 gtx whenever I wanted to and the 680 GTX was backordered for like 2 months when it first came out )

I think they'll go back to the $500-550 price range for the 880 GTX and the $400-450 price range for the 870 GTX

It didn't sell as well because AMD has had all the attention when it comes to cards these days due to mining and much better pack-in games as opposed to nvidia offering $150 in "digital currency" for shytty games

i still want to grab another Evga 2GB GTX 760 to SLI.

looks like the price went up a bit from the $250 i got my first one for.

nvidia will be streaming their keynote at the GPU Tech Conference tomorrow (3/25) @9am pst

hopefully there will be some maxwell info

the 880GTX comes out next month and will be same price or cheaper and more powerful

No it's not. I also doubt Nvidia is coming out with anything that cannibalizes their top end sales with no push from AMD, especially with them selling out their cards to the wrong crowd.

It'll most likely be about their upcoming drivers which give significant boosts in performance to all DX11 games.

I shouldnt of said the 880 GTX is coming out 100% next month,I should of worded it better, but for the past few years they always come out around March/April/May and you can already buy the 880GTX(well its 880M, but its just the laptop version) in high end laptops so id still say theres a good chance it comes out next month maybe later on in the month or May at the latest

yep, they're also still pushing out 780 varients (Titan Black, 6GB 780)

that sounds good. the keynote is around 2 hrs, so it will probably cover a bunch more though

The laptop variants are nowhere close to their desktop counterparts. A 780M performance falls between a GTX 660 & GTX 760. It's pretty safe to assume the 880M won't be anywhere near a GTX 880 or whatever big maxwell will be.
