New AMD card R9 290x will beat the titan and at a lower price. - Nikita - 10-15-2013
Most people no believe me when I say this but it is true! AMD has/is releasing a card VERY soon depending on where you live, for some it is already out; this card beats the titan and is only 699$ USD, rather then the less equivalent titan priced at 999$.

Yeah, but what about the titan ultra?
And you can't just say, it will beat it. Different GPU's are better at different things/games etc. You can't just pick one and say it's better than another.

Read the article they benchmark it... it IS PROVEN to be better, and it seems as though it is even better then the ultra as well, the ultra isn't that much different from the titan.. -_-

Titan is an over-priced piece of shit. The GTX 780 has like 5% less power and costs 400$ less, so compare it to that. The R90X may be a bit better than the 780, but the 780 is 100$ cheaper. I'm sticking with NVIDIA.

AMD name sounds like turn off, but I'm just taking a risk and am going to get it, I have to step out of comfort zone sometimes.

NVIDIA fans are going to piss themselves laughing when the benchmarks were false or something and the cards are like a GTX 770. That's just what a predict, I'm no genie or whatever you call those guys.

Even if it turns out like that, two GTX 770s in SLI is still tanky, so just Crossfire two R90Xes and you have a tank that can pummel even a 690.

That uses Quad Titans, not a single 690 with lets say, an i7-4770. BIG difference.
