It is a high end mobile graphics card for gaming / more graphics intense applications.

A 780m beats a 960m.

Only 970m and 980m faster in the 9xx series.

Yes 780m is still considered a high end mobile gpu chip.

It's still pretty much a "high end" card - being a mobile "GTX" series.
The GT series are mainstream consumer cards (lower end) ones while the GTX series are enthusiast / gaming orientated cards.

GTX series cards also generally have more cuda cores. Simply speaking - having more cores equates to better performance.

So comparing a GTX780M with a mid range GT940M for instance the GTX780M would still perform better than a GT940M despite being 2 generations behind.
