Not sure how your personal 'economy' is going but it would be prudent of you to take these guys' advice, spend as little as possible, if MC can save you $$$ you are going to blow otherwise, then yes, it's the best place. However, you can save $$$ by just buying a good sized SSD, even @SATA 2...
I remember the Q6600 had a few great S-spec lots - could do 3.2 easily. Am wondering if any 3770k owners have noticed any good S-spec or batch numbers? or is it just LOTD with all Ivies? I got any Ivy 3770k for a build I have put together for my step-son, A Costa Rica assembled chip, first one...
It does sound power related - 8 pin aux power ok? Tried it with just the CPU installed/connected? I remember similar things happening to me and it was usually something minor i had overlooked - the other day I was in a rush and tried putting a PCI-e 8 pin plug into the 8 pin aux power, wouldn't...
Firstly, kudos for playing @nearly 8K res, must be awesome when it runs well!!! Now that you have the choice, why not wait a bit longer, 6GB 780s :rolleyes::rolleyes:are the natural progression and 'could' be out in a few months, or just wait for, wat is it, Maxwell??...however, NV might decide...
690 - but I have to qualify that - for highest settings etc another 690 to make quadSLI, when working should give the best performance, however it's more GPUs, more of that random instability. I love my 690 but I have to agree with Sycraft that regardless of the improvement of SLI in recent...
If there are any Australians from Melbourne interested, I have a well looked after Palit GTX 690 for sale. The box, manual and receipt are all included - the card is about 9 months old. I don't overclock my vidcards, stock 690 in MGPU mode is fast enough.
Anyway, if anyone from Aus is...
Nice review - as per usual, wd!!! Had to look twice, the board is very ROG looking at a quick glance - red and black looks very good, no matter who uses it. Not surprised the board was a good 'gamer' in b/marks. MSI are very good @wringing every bit out of h/ware, we have seen them do this...
One thing you should keep in mind is that people who can afford a Titan, or 2, more than likely are after the best gaming experience possible, brands mean nothing when it comes to loyalty(when is a brand loyal to us consumers?) and are likely to have tried ATI/AMD Crossfire but for various...

Yes, the price is a bit crazy....however, since the punt paid for mine, I'm happy and it's better than the crashes and shit, I was getting with the 690...25x16 is enuff res for me and the Titan does it easy..BTW, nice review v interesting data..
Great review, at a perfect time, thnx guys!!! Love the Titan - yes, I feel sick without a second kidney but it's worth it!!! I've played more PC in the past few days than I have in years - no crashes, everything maxed already, fkn excellent!! I do have a question - in the NV panel, you can...
Bought one of these yesterday - had a massive win @the races, wife was rapt and told me to buy the Titan she had read about - what a great wife!!!! Anyway, they really are all that - I played FC3 all nite, everything on Ultra that can be, using the 305t @ 25x16. Never been able to do that, even...
I just re-read this as I had a huge win at the races on Saturday and my wife convinced me it was ok to buy a Titan, so I did..and what a card!!! cya 690..
