Crysis 3
Crysis 3 (DirectX 11)
Master the power of the Nanosuit. Armor, Speed, Strength and the ability to cloak are the ingredients of the most effective tactical combat armor ever created. Suit up! It's all yours in Crysis 3.
The GTX 780 Ti has a nice lead here in Crysis 3 at 1080p resolution and Very High quality settings, 9-10% over the R9 290X and the GTX TITAN.
Another great result for NVIDIA, the GTX 780 Ti is 12% faster than the R9 290X at 2560×1440.
At 4K, things shift a lot and the R9 290X is much more competitive.
I still rather but the Titan.
I still rather but the Titan. I use 3 monitors and with the Titan you only need 1 card. It seems that the 780 ti you would need 2 cards. So the titan is cheaper. Am I wrong?
Why do you guys insist on
Why do you guys insist on using that Skyrim sequence to benchmark GPUs. You could have barely chosen a more ill suited location. All that effort wasted because you run a GPU benchmark in a thoroughly CPU limited area, when there are actually plenty of GPU limited areas to choose from in the game.
What game/test is used to
What game/test is used to determine total power usage of the entire system? How is this number identified?
780ti is capable of way more
780ti is capable of way more , cooler don’t like it tho .so now all those engineering need to be sent to cooling a computer 101 if they hope to gain more performance in the future .cause clearly .both nvidia and AMD have reached or are very close to have reached a plateau .

why are the exact settings for crysis 3 not shown as they are for BF3 or Metro LL. this is an inconsistency you should eliminate.
also did you run R9 290X with uber fan speed. because otherwise the throttling is quite severe for R9 290X CF. there is 10 – 20% perf loss at the lower fan speed.

people who spend USD 550 are definitely going to try and get the best performance possible. since AMD supports uber mode with a BIOS switch there is every reason to test it since its guaranteed by AMD to work and they back it with their warranty.
I am getting pretty tired of
I am getting pretty tired of benchmarks like these, not comparing a new flagship card with the previous title holder on resolutions where they matter. Sure, You give me the most common, such as 1920*1080 and 2560*1440, but nothing for multi-monitor support, and even your 4K resolution review excludes the previous title holder, the GTX Titan.
