Cool it off more, and you'll likely be able to get a little more out of it.  Pascal hates heat....any kind of heat.

It's supposed to be cooler this weekend so I may take it outside at night and see what happens.

Sunday night is looking nice and cool here.  I might do the same.

[VagabondWraith]

So the temps are supposed to be -4c tonight. I just might do some testing then.  Hopefully that's cold enough for Pascal to really push high clocks ?

[Vellinious]

Use the voltage / frequency curve.....it yields much better clocks, and will eventually, when you get the curve set just right, yield higher frames to go with it.

So, I'm thinking about returning my TX for a 1080 Ti. Still have roughly 2 weeks of return time. You guys think it's worth it? Might even get 2 or just use the money for extra upgrades.

If you do return it, which I don't think you should, just get one 1080 Ti.  Use the remaining money and apply it towards a custom loop.  AIOs and Hybrid coolers are good for what they are, but you strike me as the kind of guy who's hoping for high scores.  If that's the case, you need to stop using the JV cooling shit.  

 

A custom loop will be used in more than this build so consider it an investment.

I would but I don't have a clue about doing my own custom loop. I don't have the patience for it either.

Weak!!!

 

You'd be floored the first time you build your own loop and realize how easy it was.  There's too many of us around to help for you to keep making excuses.  If you can sit through days worth of benchmarking, you have the patience to build a loop.

 

With all of the high end parts that you're using it's almost criminal that you're using AIOs and Hybrid coolers.  You'd serve 30 days in Virginia for that stunt.

I could say the same to you about going sub zero

Ikr . I'm still debating though. Would they be able to tell I took my card apart if I put it back at stock config? Thing is though, if I send it back I'd have to wait for the Ti to be available.  hmmm.

Tbh I would wait 1 gen as the titan will hold value better when you come to upgrade next time round.

True, but I'm talking about stuff that can be used in a practical manner daily. I know water chillers and phase changing can be used daily, but most don't want the noise. 

 

I'm on the verge of doing it, but my plan involves locating the noise parts to the basement directly below my office.

I wouldn't return it. If you already have a Titan X Pascal I'd keep it. It's still the top dog. Not by much, but it is.

you just get a second system and go straight to ln2  you'll be using a Pentium+gtx750 in main rig in no time and get monster scores with x99 and z270 based benching systems

That's true too. Having a bit more money for the Volta Titan will make this pill a bit easier to swallow. I just happened to buy at the wrong time, but I knew what I was getting myself into. Next time I'll just buy day 1 and skip the x80 variant.

The thing I like most about the scores that I post are that they are with the system I use every single day.  That's why I'm working towards this quiet sub ambient setup.  I want to be able to say it's my daily rig and it's still near or at the top.

Every Titan owner goes through this.  It happens EVERY time.

So after contemplating, I decided to open a return for a refund. Thing is, I'm still in the return process (until March 10th) and I could definitely use the extra $500 for upgrades. I just so happened to buy it 3 weeks ago and now I can get the same perf for so much less and still have extra money left over. Pretty much bought it at the wrong time, otherwise if I would've bought it at launch, it wouldn't have mattered.

Looking forward to seeing how well the TIs perform under water and with a good overclock.
