I'm skipping the 6 series completely. Hopefully around April to May, these new 7 series will be available. Right when I'm able to purchase one. |

 me1212 join:2008-11-20 Pleasant Hill, MO | reply to Octavean Welp my 7950 doesn't seem so cool any more. I hope amd knocks it out of the park with the 9000 series cards, or maybe even doesn't just re-brand the 8000 series. I dont want an intel/nvid monopoly, that would suck for us.
Cant wait to see the 900 series cards for when I rebuild in late 2015/early 2016
I have to wonder if devs will actually make use of it for new games, making old stuff obsolete or just keep milking old hardware. This'll probably use up all of what pcie 2.0 can do, meaning by (at the latets) 2016 pcie 3 will probably be mandatory for the x60 cards single gpu cards. |

780 looking like a beast if this is true, but it seems too good to be so especially considering it is on the same process. |

Performance usually costs and in this case it likely will cost more then I am willing to pay,...
After all if money were no object I would have gone for a GTX 680 SLI configuration or a GTX 690,.....if not an HD 7970 Crossfire setup,...

| reply to Octavean Starting to see second tier (PNY, Galaxy) selling the 670 for under $300 with MIR and the 680 just over $400 with MIR. That is usually a sign that a new product is in the pipeline in a couple of months. Watch for falling prices! -- Need-based health care not greed-based health care. |

By time you need a new card, you'll probably be able to pick one up at around the same price you picked up your GTX 670, and it'll last you much longer. -- Support Bacteria -- It's the Only Culture Some People Have |

 | reply to Octavean I'm too cheap to buy a new card in every series. The price/performance gain numbers just don't seem to be cost effective in my opinion. Completely just my opinion though.
I have a 570 and figure I'll get a 700 card when the high mid version of the series gets into the $250-$300 range. |

| reply to Octavean Thanks for digging that price up, $899 makes it a very expensive card, however I don't think it's all that far off the mark considering the 8800 launched at $600 in 2006... which is still a lot of money now, but was considerably more then.
I won't be buying one at $899, but I'd probably buy one in the 400-500 range, assuming it's everything it's supposed to be.
