the 670 was $400 not $450It will probably be priced at $450 like the GTX670 it is replacing. The 760ti will likely be $300 like the GTX660ti it is replacing.

Not so much.It will probably be priced at $450 like the GTX670 it is replacing.
Why would they price it higher than GTX680's current msrp? They had to drop that for a reason.
All due respect, sketch, you must realize that people have set budgets and regardless of AMDs position in the game, nvidia has to right price their low end and mid range products. As you saw with the 600 series, they had SKUs ranging from 100$ to 500$ in 25$ increments.
We know that the 600 series is going EOL. As such, while they can price their "halo" parts extremely high (as intel can with their E/X CPUs), they cannot ignore the fact that in the real world, people have real budgets and limited, set funds that they pre-determine for computer parts. Most people _do not_ buy 650$ GPUs. But, will they buy a 400$ value GPU? There's a very good chance.
The GTX 670 sold amazingly well, incredibly well in fact - because it was such a good value. I have plenty of friends that would not think for a SECOND of paying 500$ for a GPU, but they thought "oh well, 400$ for a 670..why not". Price matters with lower end and mid range parts. I seriously doubt it will be 500$, I think 400-449$ is to be expected. Actually, being a mid range part - I really hope they do 400$.
They're saying MSRP $450, which seems feasible as it is the non-discounted price of the 680 today. $500 is really unlikely. $400 is optimistic.
At $450, if one of the version has the titan cooler, I may jump in. Otherwise I'll be waiting on the 760ti, which should come in at $300 to $350 and only be 10-15% slower.
Who is saying $450? The article linked to wccftech.com says $499+ (only because the article is about the Lightning variant so it may be slightly more expensive).
The reference GeForce GTX 770 would cost $399-$449 at launch so we can expect a premium price point for this model.

I'm really not sure where people are getting this idea from. I've literally read every article linked in this thread and the other thread and not one of them has mentioned a 499 price tag for the 770,
There is no reason to think they will be 500.
I dunno. It's a good 10% faster than the 7970, and the 7970 sells for $400. If they price the 770 at $450 it won't apply pressure to AMD.
It could go either way, $400 or $450. We just need to wait until Thursday.
I would say it is a weak 5% faster, most figures quoted so far are very Nvidia friendly titles. Expect the 770 to tie the 7970 or win by the ever so smallest percentage.
i just really hope they dont use like a 198 memory buffer, I would wish for 300+ but that isnt going to happen. I really feel that some of these cards with bigger memory buffers would be so much smoother.
amazing? it will be nothing more than a 670 which is 10-15% faster clock for clock than the current 660 ti. lol we have been getting ripped off so bad for the last year that a piddly 15-20% upgrade at the same price point is impressive. and that is mainly from just higher clocks so anyone that is already overclocking has almost nothing to look forward to.http://www.shopblt.com/item/evga-02g-p4-2770-kr-geforce-gtx770-pcie-2gb/u086_02gp42770kr.html
Placeholder pre-order price. The 770 looks like it could be priced at $400.
The 760ti should be an amazing card for $300.

wow you are easily impressed. clock for clock the 770 will only be 4-5% faster than even the 670 and it will be no better clock for clock than the 680. the ONLY reason its faster is because it will come oced which most people here have already done to their 670 and 680 cards. so other than the 7000 memory which will probably be about 5% real world difference there again is only 4-5% clock for clock advantage over the 670 which it replaces. that is not the least bit impressive. it only looks okay if someone was about to pay 450-500 for a 680 but IMO those prices should have lowered a long time ago anyway.S[H]ady;1039918558 said:For 300 dollars, that will be one hell of a value. 670s currently go for 100 more than that.
Everyone was saying that the 770 is just a 680, but its looking like it will actually be 10% faster at a lower price point.
The 760ti should be a similar if not better value.
Also, how do you figured we've been getting ripped off for a year? 600 series cards are considerably faster and they have twice the VRAM than 500 series cards. I'm not seeing the rip off.

I did not say it came oced. I said it comes with higher clocks. you dont know if they will oc much more than 680. it likely wont by very much since its the same gpu. the gtx680 comes with higher clocks than the 670 and does not typically oc any better than a 670. clock for clock most certainly matters here since AGAIN this is just a 680 with higher clocks.It doesn't "come OC'd" - that's the stock clock. So you have even more headroom to OC further! I don't get the "clock for clock" argument when you're talking about one card OC'd versus one card stock. Of course they're "equal"...there are other variables, of course:
- More CUDA cores.
- Better cooler (Titan/780 one)
- Faster GDDR5 RAM
- PRICE!
So, at $400 this is a killer card. If that's "easily impressed" - well, I guess that's me.
the gtx570 came out 2.5 years ago for 350 bucks and we are just now getting 50-60% more performance from a x70 part after all this time and will be paying even more to get that. that is NOT impressive at all for 2.5 years.S[H]ady;1039918639 said:I still don't see the problem.
If you have a 600 series card keep it. It's not worth the upgrade, but you just saved yourself some money.
I have 500 series cards, like many other people. I held back because I didn't think a 680 at 450-500 was worth my money. Slightly faster and 400 bucks is.
Realize that nVidia isn't marketing these to people who own 600 series cards. There's very little reason to upgrade one of those at this point. They are gearing these towards people who didn't buy in to the previous gen.

it is what is though and the 770 will likely sell well for 400 bucks.
