Nvidia GTX 780 performance estimates Enlarge picture - Nvidia GTX 780 performance estimates
Many suppositions regarding Nvidia’s next-generation Kepler GPUs have come our way during this last week, but now an even more startling rumor has started circulating on the Web.

According to this, Nvidia’s upcoming solutions will be released into the GTX 700-series and, the top part, named the GTX 780, will be able to deliver a twofold increase in performance over the current GTX 580.

At the heart of these rumors, stands a slide that was recently published on a Chinese forum, which pretty much suggests that the GTX 780 will blow all its competitors out of the water.

It goes without saying that we doubt the authenticity of this slide as the performance increase seems too high from one generation to the other, but if indeed true than Nvidia has a winner on its hands.

For now, we can just wait and see how will things evolve, but I have a feeling that this graph will be proven to be fake in the not so distant future.

Fake. At least they could do another photoshop of this picture, because all games are on 1.0. And then 6xx series are missed.

Umm. they're all on 1.0 because it's a comparison. The 580s are at 1x and the 780s are at varying times above that. And you're forgetting that nVidia has already skipped a generation with the 3xx series. Still this is more than likely fake.

I honestly wished people would stop posting trash like this. It is a waste of time and the chart has so much increase until it is * .

If you believe this. Then I have a nice lovely bridge that i would love for you to buy!

It's real. You guy obviously haven't been following graphics technology. The Radeon HD 7000 series is expected to consume a 3rd of the power per performance.

Its definitely a possibility, as Nvidia skipped the 300 series and outed the 400 series before the 500 series.

They won't skipped the 300 series, that was only for pre-build office rigs from DELL, HP and those manufacturers. Just take a look of the drivers page and you can find the GeForce 310 that comes with Dell Vostro rigs.

Well considering the GTX 580 performed as well as or better then two GTX 280's which was a leap from 65nm to 40 and now to 28 for the 7 series and the tech has improved I would say the figures aren't far off!
