I will probably upgrade it for an 800 series card rather than do that, that way I get to keep the benefits of a singlel card and also probably double my VRAM.

Somebody doesn't like SLI lol. Going to replace it with a 870 then?

Currently a gtx 645 used for 720p gaming and small amounts of rendering

Soon (like within 3 days if all goes well with shipping) a r9 280x used for 1080p ultra gaming and more rendering

Please don't tell me you bought the ASUS one.

Factory overclock from 1,006MHz to 1,071MHz but when under load she is at 1,123MHz. I'm not sure why because it never said that in the description and I've never OC'ed it.

 

I also have an MSI GTX 650 Ti Power Edition that I've put back into the retail box and my mate is currently using my old EVGA GT 630.

That's most likely Nvidia's GPU Boost working. It'll automatically squeeze more performance out.

I don't dislike SLI, I just like have a solution that's guarunteed to pump all its power into every game, if I have SLI then any game that doesn't scale very well and performance is going to suffer, with just 1 card it does not.

 

I'm not sure what card I'll go for, but probably the 880 as I've had this card pretty much since it launched and I'll have the cash for the 880 most likely.

 

I'll also look at what (if anything) AMD have come up with by that time.

I have a GTX 660 and waiting for the 800 series to upgrade to a GTX 880.

Damn. That'll be a massive jump.

Vegas doesn't even benefit from CUDA anyways. This has been proven/shown tons of times already. So that was pointless anyways lol. 

Well when I had GPU acceleration enabled it took like 1/4 of the time to render my videos...

THATS.WHAT.YOU.GET. Well...at least you didn't buy a Titan Z...it's two Titan Blacks for 3,000 dollars (which is overpriced as hell).

 

...wait...used to? What card/cards did you have before?

Isn't that first thing just typically with badly optimized games lol?

I can't wait for the GTX 880 though it is likely to be above what I can afford for a while, I'm waiting for the GTX 860 or 870. Still should be nice though

Idk man, maybe you got the magical version of Vegas because everyone else complains that their Nvidia GPU's don't do shizz for Vegas.
