Titan 2 Has Raised Its Head !

I think NVIDIA should at least give 50% better card than Titan Black.
That mean 40% faster than mine. ASUS GTX780Ti Matrix Platinum is 13% OC from reference, than mine is almost 20% fabric overclocked. Jesus. 5fps more Graphic Test 1 or 700 GPU points more in Firestrike Xtreme than ASUS GTX780Ti Maxtrix Platinum. Next year again fabric overclocked to the sky.
With GTX780Ti some people play on 1440p but with 40-50% more performance that would be nice gaming.

At the moment it is looking like the next gen of NVidia cards will be on 28nm again. Or putting it in plain English the performance gain over the old 28nm relics we are using now is likely to be nearer 15% or 20% and that is being optimistic.

Stand by chaps to get ripped off by NVidia for very little performance increase.

I hope not. If performance improvement is less than 30% than not worth upgrade.
Because custom models with higher clock are far from reference design and we will see 20% difference mostly in benchmarks. I hope same distance as full GK110 vs GK104 difference. Plus 512 bit memory and more memory.
But GPU performance are most important.

We won't see a 30% performance increase over a 780 Ti sadly, That will come later when the full fat GM210 is released.

Remember Nvidia is all about money, They will milk it for as long as possible just like they've done with the 600 and 700 series.

Yes, GTX880 is not interesting for me.
I immediately thought on premium chip or last Maxwell chip.
I think they will not prepare anything newer and stronger after GM210.
Only two versions maybe.

While this is true, only to an extent. You have to remember since mobile has become a huge market that in turn hurts all PCs. They are making less money than before. Them trying to milk it is more or less trying to actually make a profit to continue making newer hardware, even if it is not exactly jaw dropping in performance improvement. Hell if you look at the launch of the AMD 7xxx series and the Nvidia 6xx series of cards, compared to today and their refresh cards, they don't perform as nearly as well with driver improvements doing wonders for performance. So they aren't sitting on their ass doing nothing. Just doing less than before.

The problem is it has pretty much been 2 1/2 years since any hardware improvements have really happened and the fact that the new shit coming out is all rumored to still be on the 28nm node is quite dissapointing. This is where the milking shit comes into play. Its probably so cheap in comparison to the lower nodes that they would rather do that than make bigger performance increases.
