GeForce Titan X owners club *update*

[Najuno]

Okay so I benchmarked for real today again after installing the waterblocks on the Titan Xs and flashing a modded BIOS on them.

 

The results are very impressive! And of course this is a 4K benchmark.

 

Benchmark: Fire Strike ULTRA
CPU: i7 5960X @ 4.6GHz
GPU: nVidia Titan X 2way SLI
GPU Core: 1574MHz
GPU Memory: 2021MHz

Score: 9461
3DMark Link: http://www.3dmark.com/fs/4469058

 

Not much more to say to that other than back as rank #5 in the top 10 of 3D Mark´s HoF worldwide . So watercooling and a mod BIOS enable this GM200 very hard!

I really wish there was some resale value in my 290x, i'd hop on the upgrade train right now...I'd get a titan X if the lightning were able to sell for anything close to it's original 800 dollar MSRP...

if you buy a titan X let me know Ill buy your 290x lol

[Mindtrick]

If anyone is upgrading from a GTX 780TI or a GTX 980, I'd love to see some comparison benchmarks (Games) - Stock and Overclocked.

Upgraded from two EVGA Dual Classified 780ti's to two Titan X's.

That is one hell of a difference! You´d need 3 GTX780Ti´s to come close!

Looks like that run on the 780ti's was without an OC. I should have benched it one last time before I drained the loop and removed them.

Yeah but even so unless you had really good samples, with mine I could achieve around 21k in 3D Mark. You are nnot even close. And go 4K, since even 3D Mark ULTRA uses more than 3.5GB have fun with stuttering and 2 GTX780Ti hehe.

You have just like me now an amazing setup and your resolution with 3 1440p monitors is even more brutal than my 4K screen. You did everything right here .

I wish I had your CPU. I can't get stable past 4.4GHz. Some day I may hit you up for your OC settings.

Sure shoot me a PM one of these days .

@Najuno, are your Titan Xs samples?

Hehe no I bought just as everybody does, but I can consider myself lucky .

 

I´ve got dream ASIC qualities for both cards when it comes to watercooling!

Ah, alright! I for some reason recalled you mentioning samples somewhere. 

[Commander Llama]

Considering picking one up for LlamaBox (in sig).  Haven't made the jump to 4K yet, even the Titan X scores aren't high enough for my liking in that department yet.  But I've got the ROG Swift, and I want to tear apart GTA V, Arkham Knight, Witcher 3, etc.  The 780Ti has been good to me, but even it's got sub-60fps performance in Dying Light.

 

Of course, it's not available in my area yet either.  

[Kanuck]

So I'd like to officially join the club. My Firestrike score: http://www.3dmark.com/fs/4469380

 

I upgraded my EVGA 980 SC reference card under a full cover EK waterblock with 4790K @ 4.5GHz, 16GB DDR3 etc etc in a custom water loop with one EK 360XTX radiator. This is all pushing one ROG Swift @ 2560x1440p.

 

I have only been testing the Titan X on air and it's game stable around 1450MHz (+112mV in PrecisionX) but will post some water numbers when I get the block installed.

 

The attached chart compares my 980 performance (water, using EVGA Hydro Copper BIOS) to the Titan X (air, using the modded EVGA SC 425W TDP BIOS from overclock.net).

 

Some notes on the chart. Although I can get the 980 core up to ~1550MHz & memory up to 8000MHz, I haven't had much luck with the TitanX memory yet. I was more interested in the core comparison. Also, I think Star Citizen is maxing out near 60fps. Is anyone else getting better than 60fps?

One thing I'm noticing is it's limited by power because I keep reaching the 110% power limit.

Ill try to resist the urge to make jokes about the Titan X being a space heater, or wondering aloud how many of these cards high Vram temps will start to create problems just as the warranty expires on their 1,100 dollar card.

It's not like previous gens didn't heat as much (or Radeons for that matter). If it started to fail after 3 years it would be such a stain on the Titan name.

With two of these things OC'ed, and under water, in the same loop as my 5960X (also OC'ed), I have yet to see temps over 38°C.

You mentioned you were running TX 2-way SLI with 3 x ROG swift.... Can you post some numbers for real world games? Not sure what you play but a cross section would be good!

Cheers

70 degrees on air while overclocked with my custom fan curve. That is a very comfortable temperature.

Guess what just arrived!!!!

What are you guys using for OC tool? I am used to the EVGA precision X, but I know the card comes with OC guru 2... I won't be doing much OC for now, maybe just a test to see how far I can push it then return to a mild one.

Precision X is my OC utility of choice.

[Serin]

Can one use whichever tool one likes with cards? I was hoping to get the EVGA card, but it looks like Gigabyte is all that is still in very low stock here.
Precision X looks like a more useful tool.

Thanks you should otherwise I will have to ask you what kind of GPU you are using and if you have ever heard of custom watercooling. My cards run with 33 degree Celsius under load in 60 min Unigine Valley, I doubt that your card hits 33 Celsius in idle. And if someone runs a card with the stock cooler and it dies on him he had fun for 3 years (that's your warranty time). And after three years the card's outdated anyways by far.

Why do guys like you always try to talk good stuff bad? Jealous?

Congrats! I'll add you in the OP .

With programs like MSI AFterburner or EVGA PrecisionX you are not bound to brands. These programs work with any GPU. In other words EVGA's Precision X works just fine with a Gigabyte card .
