At the moment probably the new 780 Ti 6 GB version, if you need the 6 GB VRAM for large scenes (octane does everything in VRAM). And if you can afford it, several of them :)

I was thinking between the 780 (2304 CUDA cores) and the 780 Ti (2880 CUDA) which has a 80% increase of performance. That's a lot!! And for this spec I decided to take the 780 Ti. And it runs very fast!!
But my 780 Ti has 3GB of VRAM. With 6, it would be a beast!

something is wrong with Your math ~20% would look a bit more realistic..

I take every rumor that comes from Wccftech with a huge grain of salt but I believe the speculation about the Titan Black Edition and the GTX 790 with two GPUs and 10GB of VRAM to be a bit more credible:

Oh, 790 would be great for me as I only have space for 2 wide cards.
