Posted March 13, 2015 I have a very stupid question - who needs a TITAN X in SLI like 2,3 or 4 way. that doesn't make sense right? GTX 980s in SLI does make a bit sense. TITAN X has got 12 gb and 4 way its like 48gb. who needs a titan x in 4 or 3 or 2 way sli? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 13, 2015 BECAUSE PC MASTER RACE!!!!!!!!!!!! No JK because some people like to make things OVERKILL. Downloading programs from CNet is not a good idea, as they will commonly include unwanted, and sometimes dangerous bloatware... The more you know.

Posted March 13, 2015 5k/3x 4k/1440p, or people who like to go overkill, things like that. Also in 4 way SLI it's still only 12GB, for now at least. RIP in pepperonis m8s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 13, 2015 that's not how sli works. you sli 2 12 gb cards, you have 12 gb vram. anyone wanting to play at 4k or 5k on high graphics settings at 60 fps would need more than one titan x.

How's that possible, you ask? Using a PCIe Riser along with a PICe 3x hub (get's 1 PCIe and turns it into 3). Want to help researchers improve the lives on millions of people with just your computer?

Posted March 13, 2015 4 way Titan X sli would make me soil myself. You think I'm kidding heh. SLI with a massive card like this is completely unneeded, unless your working with multiple insane rendering jobs running at once. So no, its not worth it at all. One card would probably be overkill on its own.

Posted March 14, 2015 GPU ram doesn't stack Erm considering that Titans are designed for workstation use, vram absolutely DOES stack since the cards are used independently and NOT in SLI.
