Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
The author of that piece is an idiot, because he made the "Google sells your information to advertisers" statement. Google does not do that, it keeps all your information to itself and places relevant ads in front of your eyeballs.
I normally don't mind too much when Crossfire isn't supported, but I'm getting around 35-40fps with a bunch of drops to 25fps. Medium/low details @3440x1440, and I even have a few settings turned completely off. The early beta of this game played great on AMD cards, but then nVidia got involved...
Yeah, they can create a marketing team that lies about how much vram is on their graphics cards, or how much of directx 12 their cards actually support. You crack me up.
Use what happened to the 7xx series cards after the 9xx series came out as an example of what NVidia will do. They will pretend like the 9xx series never even existed.
A couple of months ago I went from an i7 860(Lynnfield) to the 6700K, talk about a noticeable upgrade. Playing GTA V with the new cpu was mind blowing.
After Pascal is released, nVidia is going to completely forget their 9xx series cards even existed, it's what they do. Previous gen AMD cards will continue to see improvements even after they are no longer in the spotlight. History has shown us all of this.
Not everyone spends their time posting on hardware forums and worrying about what their graphics card will be. If you're not enjoying any part of this, I'm curious as to why you don't pick a different hobby.
I set the core to 1,100 on both of my cards shortly after installing them, I haven't touched the power or any other settings. Honestly though, I originally had no intention on even overclocking these, I'll probably set them to default speeds next time I get around to it.
Why not both?
In all seriousness, get the monitor first, you don't want VR to be your only source of gaming. After everyone here has begun fawning over their VR setups, you'll probably have enough money saved up to buy one.
Well, I mean, wasn't your SLI setup overclocked when you ran the benchmark?.
I do wish the Pro Duo had a bit more performance though. I run a 6600K with a small overclock, and Fury X's in Crossfire with no overclock, and my Fire Strike score was a few hundred points higher than it achieved.
