    So, are Titan owners happy?

    No one expected the new cards to come out until Fall. I had already had my Titan weeks by the time people started talking about Titan lite and Titan 2 rumours. I feel like they stuck it to their loyal fans. If the 780 would have come out in the Fall I wouldnt be as upset. I would say that...

    GTX Titan Owners Thread

    I considered it. Dont get me wrong I love my Titan. The problem is I bought it under the assumption that there wasnt going to be a replacement for the 680 until at least late fall. Well here we are not even 3 months later and they release a card that looks to be only 10% slower and around...

    How fast does your stock TITAN run?

    Mine boosts up to 1058 @ 1.162v. It stays there as long as I keep the temp below 79 C.

    Titan crashing my machine?

    Did you check in event viewer. It may give you a clue to the reboots. Look for things like WHEA Kernel errors. I had one of these reboot my PC. It means your CPU voltage is too low. Also memory problems will reboot your PC sometimes. You could just do a quick single pass of Memtest...

    TITAN vs. 580 2-Way SLI

    I just upgraded from a 580 to a Titan. The Titan at stock is twice as fast. In the Valley benchmark 580=34.2 Titan=68.1. The Titan is only pulling a few more watts than the 580 also. I can put up some more benches later when I get home. But, yeah basically twice as fast.

    Titan overclocks like garbage (throttle issue)

    This is essentially no different than how the GTX 690 was handled, but I think it’s something that’s important to note before anyone with dreams of big overclocks throws down $999 on a Titan card. To be clear, GPU Boost 2.0 is a significant improvement in the entire power/thermal...

    Titan overclocks like garbage (throttle issue)

    My experience almost exactly mirrors BatJoe. I only have throttling during benchmarks. Good thing I dont play benchmarks.

    Titan overclocks like garbage (throttle issue)

    This option was available to everybody. I would still rather have the Titan. Every review site said that a single Titan would not be able to compete with overclocked 680 SLI and would even be slower than the 690 in many instances. So if you're aim is to achieve those other solutions...

    Could Nvidia get away with what AMD is currently (possibly) doing?

    This is the same graph with data gathered from our method that omits RUNT frames that only represent pixels under a certain threshold (to be discussed later). Removing the tiny slivers gives us a "perceived frame rate" that differs quite a bit - CrossFire doesn't look faster than a single card...

    Could Nvidia get away with what AMD is currently (possibly) doing?

    I think you have two seperate issues here. 1. Microstutter. Can be fixed with a framelimiter. 2. Inflated FPS due to "runt frames" frames that never get displayed but are still counted by Fraps. I'm just glad reviewers are gonna keep both companies honest moving forward. Should lead...

    Titan overclocks like garbage (throttle issue)

    How can you say the Titan OCs like garbage? I have my card at stock. It overclocks itself up to about 1030 during games and sometimes drifts down to 1000Mhz. That is a 23% increase over the guaranteed speeds and like I said that is everything at stock. What would you consider a good...

    Squealing noise coming from New Titan card

    Mine whines a little but only during benchmarks that have no sound can I hear it. I think it stands out a little more because the Titan is so quiet. I personally would not worry about it unless you can hear it during normal use. Besides you have a three year warranty so it would be better...

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    I'm receiving my Titan today. Can anyone tell me what the oldest bios I can have with this new GPU. I saw a couple people say that they couldnt boot with the Titan until they updated their bios. I'm currently using 1504 and dont want to upgrade if not necessary. Thanks.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Video Card Review @ [H]

    I had one in my cart at the EVGA store. I got to the very end. Hit place order and then it tells me sold out. I was a little pissed about that. I didnt know people could snatch it right out of your cart.:) Thought they would give me at least a minute to finsih the transaction.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Video Card Review @ [H]

    Every Titan thread has become so boring. Price blah blah blah. I cant wait till people start getting these cards in their rigs so we can get back to talking about something interesting. For the price being so terrible I cant find one in stock anywhere.:rolleyes:

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Video Card Review @ [H]

    I wish the price was more like $800.00. Having said that I'm buying one. I still have a GTX 580 so this will be a very large upgrade for me. I think the 780 will still be 15% slower than the Titan. Nvidia probably wont match the performance of the Titan with a $500 card until at least the...

    Will a 2500k @ stock bottleneck a 680?

    When I upgraded from an [email protected] to what I have now the one game I noticed a definite improvement was 64 player BF3. I didnt notice much difference with other games.

    Performance Issues with Borderlands 2, Anybody have them?

    I have not had any issues at 1920x1080. Using a 580 GTX with the 306.23 drivers. I have everything maxed out and cap the framerate at 60. I leave fraps running so I can monitor the FPS. I havent felt or seen any major dips in the FPS lowest I've seen is around 48 or so. I'm still pretty...

    Guild Wars 2 FPS comparison (from their QA dept)

    I notice in the second chart they don't even have a 580 GTX listed. It's like they used a 580m to show the framerates with 301.42. Then used a 580 GTX when they showed the difference between the 301.42 and all other drivers. That would make sense since the 580m performs similar to a 460 GTX.

    Guild Wars 2 FPS comparison (from their QA dept)

    Am I reading that chart wrong or is he saying that the 301.42 makes a 580 GTX perform the same as a 460 GTX? That doesn't make sense. How could two cards from the same generation perform exactly the same when the 580 is twice as fast. I have never seen that before.

    Gtx680 or wait?

    I'm waiting. But the upgraditis is killing me. I just think we are too close to the next card. I think they will refresh the 680GTX in the Fall. Then release the next-gen in March 2013. I'm just guessing though.

    ASUS P8Z77-V vs Pro: Worth it for OCing?

    According to all the reviews I've read they say all the boards from the V up overclock the same. There is a good video on youtube that talks about the differences. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jjenf0z8bo Hope this Helps

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    Do you have any idea what this issue might have been? I cant find anyone saying anything other than the boot process is to fast for them to get in bios. This did not affect me. Against my better judgement I upgraded to 1504:). I'm still curious though.

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    Burner27, I upgraded from 0603 to 1406 and just today 1504. My DVD writer is still available in the boot menu. Is it gone from both the UEFI and the F8 boot menu? Have you tried unplugging it rebooting then reconnect it. Maybe the bios will redetect it. I hope you get it worked out.

    Does ASUS ship with updated bios revision?

    ASUS Z77 Motherboards - Official Support Thread

    I just flashed my Z77-V Pro to bios 1406. Now they released 1504. When I go on Asus website 1406 has been removed. Was there something wrong with this bios? Should I reflash with 1504? I hate flashing bios always makes me a bit nervous.

    MSI GTX570 OC need this many volts?

    I'm a little confused by your last post are you saying with the new voltage you had a complete system lockup? Have you tried downclocking to 732 with the 1038mv? The latest WHQL drivers on Nvidia site are the 301.42. These are the ones I've been using and they do work with SR the third...

    MSI GTX570 OC need this many volts?

    If overvolting a little bit fixes it then just do it and dont worry about it. When I got my 580 GTX everything was great at 1.0v default. Then I played DX11 games and it would crash. The solution was upping the voltage. So now first thing I do when I turn on my computer is launch AB and...

    That sounds normal. If there is no operating system on the SSD it technically isnt bootable. The LED is just telling you thats where it froze on the boot process. Once you install an operating system everything should be fine. Put your windows disc in the DVD drive and that light will go...
