Still waiting for the link/pictures!

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

to what most people dont believe it when i say i won the titan but the comp at school had 32 of us enter and it cost $20 to enter so they got their money back 

1) check your maths.

2) still don't believe you have 2x 7990's and you swapping them out for 3 titans.

3) my prevous call of bullsh*t still stands.

I dont think either of those options have enough Vram to handle 3x4k in games.

We demand a 16GB 9970! By default, it will have 4GB! :D

On the amd side there are also the crossfire issues to consider.

This sounds like one of those trolls where you claim the highest specs money can buy just to try to make people envious. In a hardware forum its more then just the parts its building the entire system and sharing your results, after all that's what computer enthusiasts do. Go ahead and claim you have those parts, no one will take you seriously without pics of some kind. 

 

Its like one guy claiming he had 4 Titans and said he got like 1000 FPS in games, sure he got the card right but those numbers would be off the charts and does not fit with any benchmarks at all, because you cant validate the claim then you are basically ignored the same can be said for over the top builds.

 

For instance I have a rig with 4 7970 cards, I have pics and an entire build log called "Fire and Ice Quadfire 7970 rebuild" , this validates my claims that I actually have the rig in question.

Nice! How loud are the 7970 at full load?

Well, it's been partially solved with the driver updates.

Enough to blow out eardrums :P, they are all reference cards, most of them are the very early models and they overclock like hell though, to bad crossfire hits a wall with 1100 core clock :/. I wear noise cancel headphones so noise does not matter to me as they are quite when im doing anything but gaming :P

The recent driver only addressed 2-way crossfire with a single monitor. It does not fix crossfire configurations beyond 2-way or multi monitor setups.

Well, most people are only going to be 2 way CFX'ing, and i completely forgot that it doesnt fix MS with multi monitor setups...

I was just mentioning it because the OP mentions 3 scenarios in which the recent drive would not help: more than 2-way crossfire, multiple monitors, current 4k monitors

There's always Quad TITANS, or Tri Titans... Not even sure if 6GB of VRAM is enough.

I remember in a video where Linus said that 2GB VRAM is what you should have for modern 1080p gaming. So you would assume that you would need around 8GB VRAM and a powerful enough GPU to work on 8GB worth of textures in order to game in 4K at the same standard we set for gaming at 1080p.

Yeah. That seems about right. You dont find GPUs with less than 2GB of VRAM these days. Most high(er) end GPUs are starting to have 3-4GB. Only if SLI/CFX stacked VRAM...

Someone in this forum did a benchmark on a 4k asus monitor and he got like 60 fps on sli titans, anyways on battlefield 3 at max settings he was hitting somewhere around 4.7gb of vram so even a titan on 2-3 4k monitors would scream for help because they don't have enough vram in them.

A person with the rig you mention would not get all frustrated and flustered when someone asks for pictures or asks questions about your setup. We are not being rude by any stretch and have answered your questions and all you are doing is spitting back at us.

Agreed, no one that has that good of a computer would get mad at people just for asking picture.

Is this post being (un-)officially labelled as a fake and gay?
