Palit unfortunately didn't make good use of that capability as their card basically emits just as much noise as the NVIDIA reference design in idle, which is pretty quiet, but far from "almost inaudible.

seriously 2x 780 Ti only 500 bucks ? Here 1 780 Ti price is 800 bucks

LOL it's 700 bucks now.(somewhere300-500)Titan is 1000 bucks :D
LOL I got it only 500 bucks.What a joke.
In price and tech specs yes but in actual performance no
you're wrong, man, 7990 beats titan.
well considering the titan narrowly beat the 7990 and the 780ti beat the titan I can see why it wins...
yes but a dual GPU will cost dual price.
These comparisons are basically useless are they are not apples to apples comparisons. Yes they are someones version of a video card VS another manufacturers version but the remaining details of the hardware which was used is not given, therefore its not known what is actually being compared. Before you jump overboard based on this comparison go on the web and search for comparisons which provide details as to the manufacturer and how each manufacturer of a video card varies (and there is massive variation manufacturer to manufacturer). Next pay attention to the hardware that was used to compare, if that hardware changes from test to test, then the entire test should be suspect of being inadequate. In order for you to be comparing apples to apples the base hardware needs to remain static and the video cards need to be made by the same manufacturer (not the graphic GPU but the graphics card itself). Comparing MSi to Gigabyte or Sapphire for instance will produce wide results as shown in the tests linked below. So make sure that what ever you are reading provides enough data so you feel comfortable that the test conducted are without bias (web site folks do get paid you know). A biased spin can send you down the wrong pathway and provide you with incompatible results if you simply purchase hardware based upon testing with wide variation. http://www.tomshardware.com/t/graphics-cards/articles/
The 7990 beats it. But the 780ti is only single GPU, and still putting up a decent fight. If the 780ti was dual GPU, I have a feeling that it would easily beat the 7990.
