Random...Get Rekt NVIDIA in Gaming...

[InTechsicated]

IMO the reason that the 295x2 wins simply because AMD has allowed it, along with their other GPU's, to fluctuate in price as they have aged. I prefer Nvidia myself but I absolutely hate that no one will ever see a  brand new Titan X going for a 66% of today's price a year from now. Nvidia price locks their cards (for the most part) especially their high end cards like the Titan and Titan X making them poor choices to go SLI with because you will have to buy used to make the potential gains more cost effective. This has always been the basis of why AMD and Nvidia are destined to compete forever. Nvidia is better performance out the box but AMD is better value in the longterm. The only reason Nvidia refuses to fight more fervently on their pricing models is because AMD does not release products quite as often, so Nvidia is not forced to price competitively. We will see this trend continue when AMD releases their new line up later this year.

Its 8GB

No... Go away.

 

Fuck off.

Yeah lol

 

.....  come back when the video is a 295x vs TWO Titan X's    because the 295x is a dual card..  fk i hate people   Hell do two 980s vs a 295x and it gets rekted as well.  Hell im sure dual 970s rekts a 295x... 

Indeed people love to compare single to dual gpu's all the time because REASONS.

 

each 290x has 4gb, which doesn't stack to 8. it's a marketing tactic, nvidia does it too with their dual gpu cards 

yes

 

I know your point still stands but I see a lot of people dismissing the price.

Price does not matter to me I just want the best performance.

I envy you, my pocket isn't that big as yours.

It's not really that big but I want the best for gaming. Saved money and paid off bills. I only owe on my car now. I got all the big bills out of the way. . If you knew me 2 years ago. I would be like no way can't afford it. I'm so glad my bills are gone. Just paid $3800 a couple of weeks ago to finish off all my medical bills.

[Suika]

the 295x2 doesnt run hot whatsoever.

Readable temperatures do not mean actual heat produced. Are you telling me that a card with a 500W TDP produces isn't hotter than a Titan X?

Will both of the Titan X and R9 295X2 are great with both of the GPUs kicking each other in some games, and I think the features that you're looking for will have a great factor in the decision.

If I go AMD then it would have to be the 395x2. I don't mind waiting but that Titan X sli is calling my name. Good thing they are out of stock lol.

This is some gr8 b8 m8, i r8 8/8 (or 3.5/4)

 

But Sapphire is false advertising, this is quoted from their website:

 

>The AMD Radeon™ R9 295X2 graphics card is the world’s fastest, period.

NVIDIA Fanboy

 

I build way more AMD PCs for gaming than NVidia for clients.. I recommend AMD more for most use cases, most with budget builds.

I myself personally own an NVidia as my main (because it's not for gaming, and my particular card does better than AMD did.. tested & fact)

However, I also own an AMD PC.

 

I own a MacBook laptop & Windows PCs, an iPad Mini & Galaxy Note 10", HTC M8, and I really want a Surface Pro!

IMO that's as far from "fanboy" of anything as it gets; however, I must admit.. I am near the line of a Razer fanboy, but NOT to build quality (I'm not delusional.. Though, I have ZERO problems with all my gear) only due to aesthetics. So yeah!

[mwthomas10]

I'll take you seriously when someone does a Dual TitanX vs 295x2 or Dual 980 vs 295x2 or Dual 970 vs 295x2.  And yes, the stock 295x2 does have 4gb vram but there have been 8gb versions made (SEE EDIT).  And can someone liquid cool all the NVidia cards and overclock them and overclock the 295x2?  All cards pushed to the limit of their abilities, then I would say that is an even comparison.

 

Edit:  I just read somewhere else that stock 295x2 has 8gb vram.  I don't actually know.....

It was said that the card ran warm ( no doubt a joke coming from the heat the stock cooled 290s produce). Of course its hotter but not 95c hot.

 

I think people miss the point in this argument, Yes we know a 295x2 is better than a Titan X. Yes we know its a dual card vs single card. But on a Price/Performance scale the 295x2 is the better deal. We know two Titan X's would beat a single 295x2 but you need to spend $2000 to do that.

May I remind you that when the 295x2 launched it cost $1500?  The Titan X only recently launched.

[CoolaxGaming]

Fuck off.

What he said ^

 

Fanboyism has a limit, dont go giving trash on the forum @MLG.

That is a very good point.

As I recall, the Titan's MSRP typically stays, but I'm never sure.

HarHarHarHar.I just wanted to share this.Please don't make a zee random excuse you NVIDIA fans that "OH IT'S A DUAL GPU CARD IT'S SLOW IT'S UGLY IT RUNS GOT".

Radeon Card looks more sexy imo

Im talking about gaming here.If you wanna talk Workstation go away.

NVIDIA...A $700 card is wreaking your $1000 card in terms of gaming.Please make something good that makes sense.Really like a 8GB vs 12GB.You might be like 12GB is better but not here.

Save your time and money if your going for a gaming card at this price range and get a 295X2.

[Random Stuff Decided not To Put In]

It makes no sense why does a card of 2014 destroys a mid-2015 card.Like really NVIDIA.

Tell me NVIDIA'ns what you got to say to this

 

I just don't know what to say, there is a lot to comment on here, but I know you will not understand, so I'll leave it at you only know what people tell you, and you don't have a mind of your own.

 

Golf clap for AMD.

[mwthomas10]

Titan also hasn't really had AMD competition like the 295x2 before, but I'm not certain.  (I didn't end it that way to mock you, merely because its true, I'm not certain)

Well, there was the 7990, but I don't even remember pricing on that.

Edit:

On nvidia's website they list the Titan X as the world's fastest graphics card, not "GPU". It is the world fastest GPU, but not graphics card. So let's not go all crazy about false advertising here. There are about 3.5x more instances of nvidia falsely advertising products (see what I did there?) But in all seriousness this thread doesn't need to exist. We've all seen the benchmarks. People are gonna buy what they want.

Exactly, pointless thread to make the fanboys come out with their hands ready to go keyboard-to-keyboard against each other.

Do you even sentence? 

[Ostwind]

It's common knowledge that the 295x2 is faster and cheaper so what's the point of posting this? oh yea that's right it's flamebait and it's will be reported as such.
