When Titan released in February, it seemed likely that NVIDIA’s GeForce 700 series would be held off on for some time. Well, with today’s launch of the company’s mini-Titan – ahem, GTX 780, we’ve been proven wrong. Compared to the GTX 680, it offers a lot of +50%’s – but is it worth its $649 price tag?

When there’s a noticeable gap of time in between major GPU launches, one thing’s bound to happen: we’re going to see models get released that slot into gaps we didn’t think existed. That’s the case of both AMD’s Radeon HD 7790 and NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST, which retail for the same price. Let’s check them out.

As proud as it is of its GK110 architecture, NVIDIA couldn’t let the folks at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have all the fun, so the company has worked its magic and is bringing it to the desktop. The result is a GPU that boasts a lot of transistors, is super power-efficient and crazy powerful. It looks good, too.

NVIDIA does such a great job filling holes in its product line-ups, that sometimes it manages to fill a void we didn’t even know existed. The GTX 650 Ti is a perfect example of this. This GK106-based card sits close to the GTX 660, and with GIGABYTE’s overclocked GV-N65TOC-1GI, we’ll see if we can close the gap even further.

We talked at length about the NVIDIA-infused Titan supercomputer already, but we haven’t been able to talk about the GPUs that help make the magic happen. In this article, we’re doing just that. We’ll see what the Tesla K-series of “GPU Accelerators” bring to the table and are capable of, and also take a look at where CUDA usage stands today.
