To test today we used the version of ASUS GPU Tweak which is included on the optical disc supplied with the GTX 780 Ti Direct CU II OC. We unlocked the MAX GPU Voltage and MIN GPU Voltage options in the settings panel.
We managed to get 1,077mhz out of the core before we would experience minor artifacting and then hardlocking. This translates into a 12.8% overclock. We found that pushing the voltage any higher would lower overclocking potential and we found the sweet spot around +87 on Min GPU Voltage (mV) and +54 on Max GPU Voltage (mV).
These results are not as impressive as the Palit GTX 780 Ti JetStream OC, which we managed to push from 980mhz to 1,141 mhz (16.4%). That said, every card will exhibit different levels of overclocking capability so it is difficult to make generalised, sweeping statements based solely on the findings of a single sample.
Excellent looking card, but ih ave to say ‘gold stickers’? its that because they are the only company in the world to make gold coloured motherboards? blue and red and green would have been much better.
Good card though
I like ASUS GPU’s but they are always so expensive compared to other makes, this one seems priced ok, considering its a Ti, but the R9 290 is so much better value overall.
I agree with Ben. I guess the best option taking into account the price quality ratio is the Asus R9 290X. It´s not much more expensive than the R9 290 and it´s much better:

It´s also over 100$ cheaper than Asus GTX780 Ti Direct CUII OC.
The R9 290X may be cheaper than the 780 Ti, but it’s not the best of the best! Asus GTX 780 Ti Direct CUII OC = The best of the best!
