The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti and GTX 750 Review: Maxwell Makes Its Move
by Ryan Smith & Ganesh T S on February 18, 2014 9:00 AM ESTBioshock Infinite
Bioshock Infinite is Irrational Games’ latest entry in the Bioshock franchise. Though it’s based on Unreal Engine 3 – making it our obligatory UE3 game – Irrational had added a number of effects that make the game rather GPU-intensive on its highest settings. As an added bonus it includes a built-in benchmark composed of several scenes, a rarity for UE3 engine games, so we can easily get a good representation of what Bioshock’s performance is like.

Anywhere outside of NA gives normal prices. Get out of your bubble.ddriver - Wednesday, February 19, 2014 - link
Yes, prices here are pretty much normal, no on rushes to waste electricity on something as stupid as bitcoin mining. Anyway, I got most of the cards even before that craze began.R3MF - Tuesday, February 18, 2014 - link
at ~1Bn transitors for 512Maxwell shaders i think a 20nm enthusiast card could afford the 10bn transistors necessary for a 4096 shaders...Krysto - Tuesday, February 18, 2014 - link
If Maxwell has 2x the P/W, and Tegra K2 arrives at 16nm, with 2 SMX (which is very reasonable expection), then Tegra K2 will have at least a 1 Teraflop of performance, if not more than 1.2 Teraflops, which would already surpass the Xbox One.Now THAT's exciting.

It probably won't be Tegra K2, will most likely be Tegra M1 and could very well have 3xSMM at 20nm (192x2 vs. 128x3), which according to the article might be a 2.7x speed-up vs. just a 2x using Kepler's SMX arch. But yes, certainly all very exciting possibilities.grahaman27 - Wednesday, February 19, 2014 - link
the Tegra M1 will be on 16nm finfet if they stick to their roadmap. But, since they are bringing the 64bit version sooner than expected, I dont know what to expect. BTW, it has yet to be announce what manufacturing process the 64bit version will be... we can only hope TSMC 20nm will arrive in time.Mondozai - Wednesday, February 19, 2014 - link
Exciting or f%#king embarrassing for M$? Or for the console industry overall.RealiBrad - Tuesday, February 18, 2014 - link
Looks to be an OK card when you consider that mining has caused AMD cards to sell out and push up price.It looks like the R7 265 is fairly close on power, temp, and noise. If AMD supply could meet demand, then the 750Ti would need to be much cheaper and would not look nearly as good.

Load power consumption is clearly in Nvidia's favor.DryAir - Tuesday, February 18, 2014 - link
Power consumpion is way higher... give a look at TPU´s review. But price/perf is a lot beter yeah.Personally I'm a sucker for low power, and I will gadly pay for it.
