Conclusion

The GTX 780 Super JetStream version, for example, ships at tasty clocks... and boosts to sky-high frequencies during gaming.

We believe that Nvidia now holds a commanding performance lead for high-end, single-GPU graphics cards. Punching above anything offered by the competing Radeon band from AMD, the GTX Titan and GTX 780 are primed for running games at ultra-quality levels.

Large-volume partner Palit eyes success in the profitable enthusiast segment of the market and has accordingly launched a number JetStream models equipped with massive coolers and very competitive frequencies. The GTX 780 Super JetStream version, for example, ships at tasty clocks - including faster-than-default memory - and our sample boosts to sky-high frequencies during gaming.

The upshot of a potent architecture and high speeds is benchmark performance that's higher than any other single-GPU card we've tested, and that list includes the more expensive Titan. Such performance is married to reasonable noise levels and temperatures, as well.

Bottom line: if you have a lot of cash burning a hole in your pocket and want a graphics card that will last for a while, Palit's Super JetStream GTX 780 is as good a bet as any.

The Good

Superior single-GPU benchmark scores
Titan-like performance for less money
Overclocked core and memory

The Bad

High power-draw
No bundled games

Holy cow , I was very surprised to see the temps and noise as controlled as they are given the power draw of that thing during gaming! It's a stupid amount of money, but makes the titan look a bit silly… good job, Palit!
Palit, has a damn good job, Kudos.
Titan owners, I'm feeling your pain!

Bahh ha ha haaaa!

Sorry, I couldn't help myself

Titan is still the best though. You aren't paying for the value, you're paying for the best card money can buy.

The strapline on Hexus' own review says “The fastest single-GPU card we've tested”. ;)
