What do you guys think of this card?

I feel like the GeForce GTX 880 card is supposed to be released by the end of October and is supposed to be under $500.00, so I feel as great as that card looks like it may be, it's overpriced and may be out performed by the next generation card, if you can wait a couple of months ? But if you want it now, than yeah good card and cheaper and faster than a Titan GTX.

Seems like a hype to me. There are cheaper alternitives also, doing the same job, even if it can get 1300Mhz for 1 sec it doesn´t give you anything more than 1-2FPS for that moment. How´s about throttling, VRM temps at stock and OC? As it doesn´t have backplate it could do better than ASUS VRM at 100C: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/asus-directcu-geforce-gtx-780-ti-oc-review,7.html but I doubt it.

200$ is the difference, gives you 2FPS boost in demanding games and both ASUS and this one are better than Titan. I´d do some research first.

Edit: there are 2 Asus versions out there, OC and OC Edition. In hexus review theres "ordinary" OC, in guru3d theres better performing OC Edition.

Seems like its niche product manufacturer and haven´t heard about Galaxy before, would try to contact with them about RMA before buying: http://www.hardocp.com/article/2014/02/06/galaxy_abandons_north_american_gpu_market/#.VBAVwmOokYw

Also why its in gamers garage, not in Hardware subsection?

Btw for 200$ extra to Galaxy 780TI you could get this at moment, short time discount: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131579&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=5257136&SID=ShopAMD

If you still haven't decided, the price of 700 series cards has dramatically gone down! 

 

Here's an ASUS GTX 780Ti for only $450 (after rebate) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121838&cm_re=780Ti-_-14-121-838-_-Product

Actually it depends on what you want to do with it. While I agree it's a killer card, depending on it's application it's just a piece of highly priced overkill IMHO. I was looking at it myself, however I'm not a huge gamer Elite PC Gamer, so I can't justify the price. I'll be getting either the GTX 760 or 770Ti
