$149 Nvidia GTX 750 Ti unveiled; plays Titanfall better than Xbox One

Yep, especially in this price range, Mantle matters a ton. It takes away some of the worry about CPU bottlenecks.

Pfft, like PS4 wasn't a PC too, minimally stronger than XB1 at that. Price ratio? Buy a few games and the difference will buy you PC twice as powerful for the same total money spent.

That's the largest complaint of uninformed or generally lazy people who buy pre-build retail PCs, which are usually more expensive, than an equal custom build.
So I don't let that one count.

The main question is if the card can play more demanding games than titan fall at least on medium @60fps if not then its not worth it.

PC Gaming has been cheaper than consoles for a while. The trick is to know how to build your own.

This reminds me of the ol' days when Intel was pushing Pentium 4, then realized it's not going to get anywhere... So they took Conroe as their mobile CPU and started building Core Duo from it. Half the frequency, a fourth of the power consumption, and same performance.

It's not the same, since GPUs are very different, but finally it's a GOOD approach. Let's face it - if you're gaming at 1080p and don't chase ultra "Crysis/Far Cry" settings everywhere, like the majority of people, even a card like the 750 Ti is good enough.

The power consumption on that thing is seriously incredible. I bought a Radeon 7790 three months ago, as it was the best performance per watt under the 100W category. Just look at this graph - the 260X, which is basically a rebranded 7790 (slightly more power consumption) uses a helluva lot more power than the 750 Ti for the same level of performance. It's insane. We're talking about a 40W card here. You can even put a dinky passive cooler on that thing.
