We don’t know what to make of these performance figures

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.
