yeah no one should be buying a titan...like how no one should've bought the 690
780/780 Ti might be decent if Nvidia is willing to drop it to $499 and $549-599 respectively.
whether or not 290X is a great buy will depend on how well Mantle gets implemented and if 3rd party vendors can drop the temp significantly (seriously that 95 degrees looking more atricious as I'm reading more reviews)
I'd still suggest people looking at these enthusiast level cards to wait for 20nm next May-ish unless you must play BF4 maxed on ultra high res now. The feeling of paying big bucks only to be outpaced by a healthy 30%+ performance gain within half a year really hurts the wallet...imo only worth it if you know next gen is still at least 12 months away
