    I would love to buy this but like others it is too expensive. If anything I would buy another GTX 570 and sli the GPU. Or buy high end GTX 700 when they launch this year

    Hahahaha! Good one.

    Oh wait, you're serious? Let me laugh harder!!!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Don't get me wrong: this is a great card. The problem is that the price tag is a joke. It's been priced at BUSINESS graphics card levels rather than CONSUMER levels. In short, only the richest of the rich can afford this.

    This is great for scientists, but for gamers, this is just a halo product.

    I will be buying three Titans to replace my three 680's when the 900D comes out and everything's going underwater.

    Yeah I might upload a few when it all comes together, why not. I still dont get all this blather about microstutter, I mean I'm currently running three 680's and before that two 590's and I've never experienced this microstutter in any form.

    Unlike Bill, I gave an expiration date.

    Very true! But with the release of the PS4 & Xbox 720, it's possible that the bar for playing certain games may be raised once more. I wouldn't bet on a 660Ti being sufficient to play games on in 6 years time, unless you're talking arcade type games...

    It's actually a lot closer to consumer pricing than the pro lineup at about 25% of the K20x.

    no chance. Not enough performance upgrade over a 7970/680 especially for the money.

    no, it is a simply absurd price.

    my 7970 already drive games at 40+ frames per second on high settings at 5760x1200, what need have i for more?

    Re: Features - QOTW: Will you be buying a GeForce GTX TITAN?

    No. Looks good - but way too expensive to justify. You could probably self build a PC (good enough to play Far Cry 3) for that money.
