Titan X?

[AmpedUpDad]

Okay, so I just won a used Titan X from a fellow streamer. I am currently using a GTX 670.

 

I know that it is going to be an upgrade, but how big of an upgrade is it going to be?

 

Also, how does it compare to things like the 2060/70/80?

Well you wont be getting ray tracing capability since the Titan X is a pascal card.

However, its about 3-4 times more powerful than your old 670.

Also the gpu userbenchmark site suggests around on par with a 1070ti

So a massive upgrade and I can hold off on upgrading....at least for a little while.

What do you mean? The brand?

 

I wasn't aware of multiple Titan Xs.

There is a Maxwell based one and a Pascal based one with quite a disparity in performance. Its a great upgrade either way

With the Maxwell one you are looking at 100%+ GPU upgrade from a GTX 670 (which has similar performance to 960)

Any titan is an upgrade from the 670, so you've scored. Take a screenshot of GPUz once you install the card and upgrade your drivers.

 

However, what CPU are you using? I hope there's no bottleneck.

I have an i5-3570k oc'ed to 4.2ghz.

 

I plan on trying to OC it more, at some point, but for now, I can't upgrade.

 

The money I was saving to get a new GPU is now going to go towards a new case and CPU cooler to push some OCing.

Looks like i5-3570k OCed @ 4.2ghz

 

Can put GPU money to new CPU and MB in time definitely. Nice win for the GPU

It wont matter.

 

"Oh noes my cpu is maxed out!"  *enables DSR, problem is solved*

Good luck then, hopefully your game library isn't so CPU intensive. Either way you'll get a performance uplift, and cranking up the resolution and details will help utilize the graphics card enough.

Well, I am waiting for the Ryzen 3000 cpus before upgrading, since I stream/game.

Now that will be a nice upgrade. For now, your GPU encoding quality will be increased, presumably that's what you've been using, or a capture card, since you only have a quad core?

When I am PC gaming, I just go straight through the PC.

 

Capture card is used for my consoles.

 

I haven't been told it looks "terrible," but it can obviously always be better.

Maxwell Titan.  Not a bad card (had 2 in SLI for a while).  Most of today's 20xx GPUs will probably slap it around like a red-headed step-child though.

you should look up how to use hardware encoding, to leverage your new GPU and free up the CPU

NVEnc makes the output look like mud, at least in that gen of cards.

I may do that.

So just leave it the way it is, then?

you wouldn't recommend it when compared to a 3570k? I would say worth a shot.

And yet this Titan probably beats my 670 with a pillowcase full of bars of soap.

 

And then backs over it with its hummer.

It comes somewhere between the 1060 6GB and the 1070, it does really well for itself.

A really well overclocked TITAN XM with 1550mhz~ 1600mhz on core clock will perform about the same as a GTX 1070 Ti.
