Huh?Originally Posted by jigger
Anyone else think the Nvidia 7 series seem a little underwhelming? I thought the GTX760 was the GTX670 replacement.
GTX660> GTX760
GTX670> GTX770
GTX680> GTX780
GTX690> GTXTitan?
Congratz nvidia for giving us HD7950 performance at decent~ prices, but its a year too late and AMD give 4-5 free games for the same price.
They are all wrong except the 690, which is faster than the Titan but that's a dual GPU card so you can't really compare them.
Cheaper and faster, but yeah no games is a disappointment.
AMD give 2-3 games.
The 760 isn't really faster than the 7950 Boost, they're so close much of it will come down to drivers. The 7950 will do better at high resolutions though.
AMD's bound to cut the cost. I expect the 7950s will be going for £180-200 very soon. The standard 7870 will probably get withdrawn, leaving the 7870 LE around £150-£180, and comfortably beating the GTX 660.
i thought the 7870LE was being withdrawn leaving the 7870/7850 as the mid?
Not sure, but the 7870LE has always been an oddity in the line up. All of the premium manufacturers refused to touch it, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI.
The LE blurs the lines too much with both existing. It performs much better than the 7870 for roughly the same price. If they dropped that version, they'd have to reduce the 7870 quite a lot -- this model has become a poor choice because of GTX 660 price drops. The 7950 is already available at around £200 with special offers.
Are we talking after selling the games or am I missing some killer deals?
Dabs and Aria have had the 7950 with games included for £200 recently in special offers. I'm sure these are going to be more common now the 760 is out.
The dabs one was a mistake, no-one actually got one at that price afaik, I linked that deal on here myself.
Similar thing with an Amazon mistake.
Ah right. Well, it was definitely on Aria super specials for £200. Dabs currently has them at £219ish, and they regularly do discount coupons, so it's not far off even with just that.
The cheapest HD7950 I've seen with games is this at £171. You get plenty of choice for under £200 still.

I dont understand the benchmarks on page 11 (OpenCL benchmarks)
Why is the 7870 better than the 7950 and 7970 in OpenCL? Anandtech graphs show otherwise with LuxMark.
