There has already been some rumors regarding the Geforce GTX 780 GHz Edition and although we were quite sure that Nvidia will not make a new SKU it appears that the GTX 780 GHz Edition is quite real, but as expected, will be limited to some add-in-card (AIC) partners and will not be a new SKU, just a special version of the GTX 780.
According to our sources, recent rumors online and an actual listing of the Gigabyte Geforce GTX 780 GHz Edition at Overclockers.co.uk retail/e-tail shop, it appears that some Nvidia AIC partners will be launching the new factory-overclocked GTX 780 graphics card that will be based on the new B1 stepping of the GK110 GPU. Although it is not an official Nvidia SKU, it will be a new SKU for various Nvidia partners.
Gigabyte's listed GTX 780 GHz Edition works at 1019MHz for the base GPU and 1071MHz for GPU Boost while 3GB of GDDR5 memory remained at reference 6008MHz. The rest of the specs are pretty much unchanged and Gigabyte decided to go for its WindForce 3x triple-fan cooler for this one.
Currently it is selling over at OCUK for as low as £419.99 inc. VAT (£349.99 ex VAT).
