I do have two GTX 780 lightning non Ti cards. I planned on selling them. I will most likely go for a new 1080 in a few weeks during black friday.

Yeah, I think black friday or a used 980 ti is the way to go right now. Thanks!!

Hey everyone. I spent the last week or so diagnosing a motherboard issue that caused me to lose the use of my second GTX 780 because of a faulty PCI slot. This showed me how weak a single 780 really is in regards to 4K gaming on modern games. So, I decided that I would like to upgrade to one...

No. don't be sorry! You did your best to help me out and save me some money. I very much appreciate everyone's ideas and assistance! On a side note..... I need a z97 board if anyone has one :)

Ran this program a few times and it passed with no issues. I went through these steps and reset the cmos. No change in my issue. I'm gonna assume that the second PCI slot is done for.

Both cards work perfectly in the first slot with no issue. Neither card works alone in second slot. Guess I will just look for a used Z97 board to get me through till I can afford to dump $700 on a new cpu/mobo/ram combo. I very much appreciate all of the help. In regards to the cmos battery...

Oddly, I just checked Nvidia control panel and noticed that it is no longer detecting the second card and the SLI menu is missing. I reset the PC and installed drivers with no change. I aam currently running through your steps above. Thank you!

Everything settings wise is enabled correctly. Ive ran this setup for a few years now and I know which games use SLi. After doing the above mentioned trouble shooting, I still am unable to get any usage out of the second PCI slot. Again, both cards work independently if switched to the first...

Hey everyone! Been out of the PC hobby for a bit, but started having some issues with my dated build. I’m running an Asus Z97 Deluxe board with two GTX 780s. A few months ago, I noticed my second card wasn’t being used. So, I went through my settings and ensured it wasn’t something simple...

Lol I am the same way. I put those two things together as well.

I run SLI 780s and see dips down to the 30 FPS area in gun fights. I have PhysX on high and every other setting maxed at 2560x1600. Kinda annoying. Did you find a fix?

Are these the specs for the Sabertooth??

I am going to upgrade to a 4930k and am trying to find a motherboard that has the most space between the PCI-E slots so that my top MSI 780 Lightning can get a bit more air. Also, what mainboards allow you to run the second card in any slot at x16??

Any other cube style cases you guys can think of before I drop the cash?

Yeah that is the case people keep telling me to get. I think that might be the one then. Just wanted to see if there were any other ideas out there.

Can you guys help me find a case that will fit the components in my sig. I need a case that is not as tall and preferably cube style.

Well if you guys do want to play I have a character I am playing on The Bastion named Kaoshan.

yeah +1 on this. I have had SLi 580s, 680s and now 780s. All lightnings. Ihave had zero issues with any of them. I love them!

I have yet to finish the campaign in the last 4 call of duty games. Its getting ridiculous. I shouldn't have to force myself to finish a game lol.

So if you had a 256GB SSD you would not install it on an ssd? Almost every game I consistently play is over 20GB. Its not abnormal. Although BF3 is 38GB lol Swtor - 24GB WOW - 25GB

I agree. The atmosphere is different since F2P

Well for anyone who is interested I have multiple characters on multiple servers. The Bastion: 54 Sage 38 Guardian 18 Sniper Jedi Covenant: 50 Assassin 50 Marauder 33 Commando 11 Sniper 10 Bounty Hunter I would be willing to try other servers as well and make a new toon or two.

Thanks a lot its good to be back. I have played since beta so I understand how you feel. The new updates have made things more interesting and PVP has changed a lot.

Anyone still playing swtor? I just got back from Afghanistan and all the people I played with are gone. I really like the game but playing alone is a bit boring!

I have the same issues as you guys: - Sound goes away in certain spots - Wierd FPS drops in certain small areas - Occasional freeze that I have to ALT+TAB to get rid of These are the exact issues I got in BF3 during the first few months it was out.

My 680 lightning sli setup i had a few days ago would not run Heaven at all. One cardor two cards... it wouldnt matter. Within 10 seconds of starting the bench it would crash. Now i run two 780 lightnings and it runs just fine. My 580 lightnings i had a year ago would also crash during heaven. I...

Yeah i just bought two 780 lightnings. They are beasts in SLi and a must for 2560x1600 gaming.

Heck! 6 GB is gonna be max required for a very long time!

I run it only because I never realized it made a negative impact on visuals until I read this thread!

A 750 is fine for two 680s. So 850 is plenty. I ended up ordering a AX1200i.

I am ordering a new PSU in a day or so. Probably a seasonic x-1250 for futureproofing. I will wait till then before I do a whole lot of OC' ing. Thanks for the replies!

Good to hear. I will stick to this custom fan profile as it seems to be working OK. I ordered 3 more fans. Two of them are 90+ CFM NZXT fans and one is the Silverstone FHP-141 which is roughly 170 CFM. I will use that silverstone as the center front intake. Should help temps out a bit. Do the...

Whats up everyone. I am new to posting in these forums but had a question or two about my newest setup. I just got these 680 Lightnings in SLI and started some benching. I used the newest beta drivers 314.14 and seemed to have gotten slightly better performance. I cant run Heaven bench for...
