can 2 gtx titan v or 1080ti work together

[aman the soni]

hey guys, so i have been planning to get a new pc for a while now. final cut pro and premiere really use up no natter how much ram or gpu I put in the computer. I was interested in getting the new 8 core imac pro but those things cannot be upgraded and cost a large sum.

I was thinking about building a computer which can render files of 5k upto 60fps

being new at this what stuff should I use. core i9?! and what of the gpu. titan v? or 1080 ti?

AND are these GPUs encoded to run together like the SLI so that I can employ more than 1 at a time in my computer?

GPU is most important at 4k+ for games.  For best gaming performance and decent workstation performance, use i7-8700k.  If you are doing CPU heavy work like video/animation rendering, get a Threadripper for best performance per dollar or get an i9 if you need the tiny bit of extra performance for nearly double the price.

 

Titan V does NOT support SLI.

GTX 1080 Ti does support SLI.

Titan P/XP do support SLI.

If your going for a workstation build then AMD threadripper might be the better choice for you over intel.

i9 IS faster, but not $700-$1000 faster.  Thus...

titan v does support sli, there is more then one type which people tend to forget when giving advice. Not like sli is needed for it anyway. 

Would check how each card runs in the programs you plan to use first to warrant the price difference. Also better hope the ryzen would keep up with those 2 cards in the programs as well.

The new Titan V does not support SLI (or NVLink).  At all.  The fingers on it are completely disabled.

 

There's not been any other Titan V products released by NVidia.  All previous Titan-labeled GPUs did/do support SLI, however.

Yes it does. Already have videos of benchmarks with it running.

Really?  Where?

Say the i9 is faster can be wrong as it depends the type of load, the i7 8700k can achieve significant superior single thread performance which will be more beneficial to quadcore and hexacore only optimized software.

 

TITAN V Does not support SLI.

Google it. Or YouTube for those that don’t like reading.

OK. So the answer is no, it doesn't.

 

OP: check the multi-GPU capabilities of the software you plan to use. SLI is used for multi-GPU rendering in games. If you are looking into a different workload than gaming, then you may or may not be able to benefit of multiple GPUs regardless of SLI support.

That's what I thought.  The one video with it on YouTube is false.  It shows nothing except made-up benchmarks.

 

Wanna... try again?

Took like 5 seconds. Used in testing clear as day.

[Nicnac]

current imac pro is cheaper hardware-wise than anything you can build rn. 

Just for your consideration...

Titan V doesn't support SLI, it doesn't even have SLI fingers. It has NVLink fingers but they are disabled.

What do you mean "and?" It doesn't support SLI.

Since you trust this guy so much, here's a comment from the video.

So you didn't watch it I assume. Cant break this down any more for people.

Even luke did a video covering this and people just don't grasp the concept. Guess it isn't a ltt group after all.

Dude STFU, he used simulated SLI without a bridge where he tested to see if he could hit the bottleneck between the two PCI-E slots. That's not SLI, the card doesn't support it.

This benchmark looks at dual nVidia Titan Vs in "SLI," testing the PCIe bandwidth limitations of PCIe 3.0 x8/x8 vs. x16/x16. The testing is dedicated to determining at what point the PCIe bus bottlenecks GPUs, and to see if "SLI" (using explicit multi-GPU and without a bridge, so technically unsupported) will push past the PCIe limitations.
