Yes I was looking at that Titan , but got some good advice from friends online and for the bucks the 780 was a no brainier , And as good as the Titan , so glad I didn't get the Titan save a Chunk of money . ... Gainward GeForce GTX 780 Phantom GLH 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Interesting ... was thinking too of the GTX 790 but that will be astronomically expensive too. Would you be kind enough to do a test for me with the scenario below? Use FRAPS to record FPS to excel spreadsheet with 16 GT-Rs at Silverstone at 0630 with your car at back of grid ... run fast rolling start and turn on AI on your car just as it gives you control. Please could you run four laps with these settings (5760 x 1080; HDR ON; Multiview OFF; FXAA OFF) View attachment 11767 There's beer money in it for you to save me a heap of cash!
@C3PO , yes ill Get on later and send you on the results . The funny thing with this new update I was able to increase visible AI to 21 and was amazed that my frame rate was so good , I got that excited I mistakenly forward an email to (isi Tim ) instead of my mate Doh! Tim kindly replyed with a smile , lol
First time i done that ,hope this is ok 2014-02-27 22:13:07 - rFactor2 Frames: 61116 - Time: 668605ms - Avg: 91.408 - Min: 0 - Max: 1483 ps if you like you can skype me and ill show you the settings in game and game running with your settings
Many thanks for doing this. The 780 is a clear winner in the standard test described above at 5760 x 1080. Red = 1 x 780 3GB Blue = 2 x 680 2GB SLI windows 7 screenshot

Honestly i'l be definitely wait right now to buy graphic card if is really not necessary or if you don't buy graphic card every year or two. We are close to nvidia next gen graphic cards and a top of that some big changes are coming and i am not sure how well will be today's hardware support tomorrow technologies.
I should have had a 780 by now, but now I've moved on to the "convince myself to get a 780ti/look for a good deal on a used 780ti" stage...Oh god, when will this end lol. Does anyone have tearing with 3 screens with a 780/780ti with VSync off? I purposely bought a Matrix 7970 because it has 3 slots for Displayport so I have all 3 of my monitors hooked up native Displayport this is supposed to get rid of 90% of tearing, and its results are amazing. Any game, any FPS, almost no tearing. I really don't want to go back to the whole "ocassional tearing depending on FPS, settings, etc. etc." thing....
Thats true the new gen , but at what price , the card I bought £333.29 DHL Worldwide Express (EU) Shipping: £22.15 * Total Vat: £81.75 * Total inc Vat437.19 . Claim the Vat back a great card for your money And they will only go lower in price .
@spinelli that was my last card 7970 and yes there was tearing with it , so far with the gainward 780 it runs so smooth , i used to to get a lot of it happing to me at brazil but not now , I did notice last night when looking back at a replay there was a tiny bit of stutter on the default repay camera only .
Stutter and tearing are 2 completely different things . I still have stutters in triple screens (havent updated to 14.1 drivers yet), but I am talking about tearing. Also did you have all 3 of your monitors hooked up native Displayport? No DVI, no HDMI, no active adapters, just Display port cable straight from each monitor into back of card...
I have 780GTX SLI triple screen and never had any problems with tearing, I think tearing is more ATI problem then Nvidia one. PS. Wait to mars and buy 790GTX it is going to run rFactor2 and real life with 120fps
Thanks, your comment is quite valid, however I wonder what is different now compared to any other time regarding the issue of when future technology will supercede the past?
Surely 680 SLI should be faster than a single 780 (or even a 780 Ti)? It is in most game benchmarks I have seen. Or is this a specific rFactor 2 issue with the 5760 resolution / SLI combination, meaning the single card is better but only in this particular case?
When you get your new card could you do a quick test for me please? Could you run rFactor 2 in basic single screen 1920x1080 mode (any graphic settings) and note the framerate (with your 680 SLI), then when you install your new 780 Ti do the same single monitor test? I'm just wondering how a 780 Ti compares to my 690 when running on a single 1080p screen. That would be very helpful for me.
