Hi all,

This should be interesting for those, planning to buy new GPU hardware:

Cheers indeed! Thanks Marcus. Although, the EVGA link just mentions the 780, not the Ti version.

Edit: Oop, guess videocardz got a rep comment about the 780Ti Kingpin version. Disregard. Cheers again!

The 880M is out ... which is Kepler based and has nothing to do with the GTX 880 to come, thanks to stupid naming. And: Notebook GPUs sometimes tend to get more VRAM, than their GTX counterpart. I'd expect the first GTX 880 to have 4 GB.

as the edition name hints, You can easily see where this one is targeted - & that's a high end market for guys doing overclocking (under water or LN2 =) for sure it will be more stable, cooler's thermal design itself is very good.

However, for regular user I see it beeing a bit problematic, because the air will circulate inside the case, rather than being exhauseted through the back & thus keeping rather hot temps inside (unless You have tons of airpflow in & out..)

For those are lookin' for stable 24/7 rig & don't mind to go watercooling route or making custom case - this will be excelent card (even if a bit pricy, I wouldn't be very surprised =)
