    Displayport with u3014/u2713/titan?

    I'm creating a workstation with the above equipment. Would it be easier (or work better) to connect one monitor with displayport and the other with Dual DVI? Or daisychain the monitors using displayport?

    Wipe free space on SSD?

    I think a lot of security/encryption originates for the defense dept. I wonder if they allow the use of SSD's.

    Wipe free space on SSD?

    So really, none of the cleanup of cache, temp files, etc. that ccleaner attempts is really secure on an SSD?

    Wipe free space on SSD?

    Is it okay/effective to use ccleaner or eraser wipe free space on a samsung SSD? There are articles on the web from 2010 saying it's a bad idea, but I'm wondering what the current thinking is.

    Do you think these Titans will be much more powerful than the 780?

    I thought AMD was going to play the rebadge game with 8000 series this year. AMD has lost their main GPU design guys to Qualcomm, and they are trying to shift their resources to integrated graphics and staying relevant in the mobile market as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, I don't think...

    GTX TITAN: should I get one or two?

    No need for SLI now. With a 1080p a single Titan is going to be able to run everything at max smoothly, isn't it? You only need SLI titans if you are running 1600p or surround.

    Do you think these Titans will be much more powerful than the 780?

    For compute - I'm guessing yes. For gaming - maybe not?? The old yearly refresh cycle has been thrown out the window with the rise of integrated graphics and shift to mobile device priorities. I think the days of dedicated graphic cards being the earliest adopter of fab process shrinks may be...

    Have any ASUS Titan's been in stock?

    I was on notify for EVGA website and Newegg. I was never quick enough to catch one so now I'll be perfectly happy running the ASUS. They're a quality company and I have no problem buying their products.

    Have any ASUS Titan's been in stock?

    Newegg has prepped and issued a tracking number for the ASUS pre-order I placed on the first day of sales. I had planned on canceling the ASUS if I could snag an EVGA card, but I always missed the short windows of opportunity. Hopefully I never need to test the ASUS warrantee process.

    Do you think new driviers will significantly improve Titan?

    Or do you think Nvidia already knows how to milk most of the performance out of the Titan cards based on existing GTX and Telsa cards and drivers? It sure would be nice to find there's another 20% performance lurking in the card.

    Have any ASUS Titan's been in stock?

    Talking to me? I would buy EVGA if they were both in stock and the same price, but I pre-ordered the ASUS because it was possible and EVGA was notify only. I've bought EVGA video cars before, but I have also bought a lot of ASUS motherboards and I have a lot of respect for their products.

    Have any ASUS Titan's been in stock?

    So that means Asus ships cards to Newegg on the 28th, and then Newegg take some amount of time to turn around and ship to customers? I've been waiting to buy Crisis 3 until I could play it with max quality on my 30" monitor.

    Have any ASUS Titan's been in stock?

    I got a pre-order on Newegg, but it's still in same status whereas I've seen EVGA cards list as in-stock for short periods of time. Have any of the EVGA cards shipped? Are the ASUS cards going to ship later than the EVGA's?

    Status has been changed to 'auto-notify' so maybe they've already sold out of their pre-orders.

    Titan Benchmark Results obtained from HWC / Guru3d

    Anand sums it up like this: "With a price of $999 Titan is decidedly out of the price/performance race; Titan will be a luxury product, geared towards a mix of low-end compute customers and ultra-enthusiasts who can justify buying a luxury product to get their hands on a GK110 video card. "

    Titan Benchmark Results obtained from HWC / Guru3d

    Early responses in this thread have been all about knocking the gaming improvement vs. the cost. And that looks valid. But are there other aspects to the value proposition? Are there benchmarks for CUDA yet? People who use a lot of Photoshop and Premier in addition to gaming may find the...

    how to switch to Verizon with new iPhone 5?

    how to switch to Verizon with new iPhone 5?

    My contract is up with ATT. If the iPhone 5 looks good on the announcement I'd like to pre-order it online. Will I be able to do that if I want to switch to Verizon at the same time? Or does switching carriers require going to a Verizon store?

    Is my Samsung SSD 830 dying?

    Just when I convinced myself that the SSD was not the problem, I haven't had any system freezes since I applied the firmware update, applied the Magician suggested OS changes, and switched to AHCI. Knock on wood.

    I ran HDTune and it didn't find any errors on my hard drives. It looked like it just checks for bad sectors. I ran SSD Magician -- it spotted a firmware update which I applied and a couple of OS tuning suggestions which I implemented - but I didn't see an option to validate the disk. SSD...
