I just placed an order for a pair directly from Nvidia. My 680's can finally retire after nearly 40 months of service.

For that price, you are better off getting a Titan X.

So what you're saying is you want AMD/ATI to pull another 9700 Pro? That would be awesome.

I'm probably going to replace my 1440p setup with a single card this go round. I'm going to wait and see what the 390x/980Ti offer before doing a refresh of my 680s/7970s. $2000 is my GPU spending limit for the two systems.

A 750Ti's performance is in the vacinity of a GTX 480. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1130?vs=1135 IMO, a 760 will be the minimum you need to see significant gains. I would just try and save up for a 970 or wait and see what the 960 has to offer.

Eyefinity was the feature in recent memory that made me to that. I went from a single GTX 280 to Xfire 5870's. Along with monitor costs, the price of entry was pretty steep at the time. No regrets, as I still enjoy multi-monitor gaming to this day.

I use to buy just about every generation, but have held onto my 680/7970 setup for close to three years now. They handled the games I play fine (Skyrim, BF3/4, CS:GO, the Batman series, etc.) and I saw no need to pickup the Hawaii/780i/Maxwell series. With games like DA:I and the upcoming...

I've been holding out for "Big Maxwell"/390x, but I may have to upgrade one of my systems sooner. I'll have to wait and see what my performance at 1440p will be (minus AA) in a few hours. Xmas may be coming early.

UBISoft will blame piracy when one of their games don't sell well on the PC.

AC IV used the Anvil Engine. Watchdogs uses the new Disrupt Engine which appears to be a combination of Anvil and Far Cry 3's Dunia. AC IV was capped, but FC 3 was not. If WD were to use the Anvil Engine, I would be inclined to a FPS cap. For no other reason than using a different engine do I...

Then again, the consoles are capped at 30fps 792/900p. I personally don't care if a still picture looks the same across the platforms. Gameplay at >60FPS and uncapped resolution is what will make the PC version superior.

Steve, I was finally able to ship my stuff yesterday. You should be getting it within 3 days or so. Fedex ground was surprisingly cheap.

Any use for Socket 1156 motherboards? I have 4 of them.

Good review, but I don't see any of the e-tailers selling this for MSRP in the current climate. By the time it even approaches MSRP, I suspect we may be close to Maxwell.
