GTX 780 or GTX titan

[Q_mods]

Hi,

 

I have 2 pc's, one has gtx 670 SLI, and one has a gtx 560ti. I need to keep both bud the 560ti is to slow for me, I use a dell monitor the U2711. this is a 2560x1440 screen and if i want to game on that res the 560ti is just not enough. I am planning to upgrade that card in the coming weeks. 

 

Specs:

ASUS Sabertooth Z77 

i5 3579k (@4,6 Ghz)

128Gb Crucial M4 ssd

Asus GTX 560ti

Dell U2711

custom loop for the cpu cooling but, if i upgrade the gpu the new one will be watercooled.

corsair C70

 

Now the question:

Do you notice a 400 euro difference between the gtx 780 an the gtx titan. Is the 3gb extra frame buffer worth the 400 extra euro's?

No.

 

Titan is for those who need compute performance.

 

Get the 780.

 

Or two 7970s. (When the price cuts happen.)

[iRRuSiioNZz]

the 780 should be fine on that res

[kierden]

For a single monitor setup get the 780 :)

[M-ursu]

No, you will be fine whit 780, TITAN is no unnesesary, unless uou are playing 3x 4k monitors in surround.

[Warcony]

Get the 780.

Get a 780... watching this comparison between 780 sli and Titan sli is almost painful. Just think of the people that dropped $2,000 on two Titans.... The cheaper cards should never beat the more expensive ones 9 times out of 10. Unfortunately, Linus tends to exaggerate the importance of large amounts of video RAM. In fact, there's still not much of a gap between the 780 and the Titan when running at 5760x1080.

thanks, i think i get one ore 2 780's i dont like the microstuttering of crosfire;)

I got the 580gtx about 2 years ago and never used any of its compute performance it had in it.

Getting a 780 gtx this time.

Get back to me in a year or two and lets see if the importance of vram is exaggerated. I wouldnt recomend SLI 780's to anyone unless you'll never run anything but 1080p and even then why do you need two for 1080p. Just get SLI 770 4gb cards.

 

And coming from trifire hd 5000 series to sli titans, i dont miss microstutter one bit. Sli is so much smoother.
