Thanks! Well, I don't have anything out of the ordinary: 3 x 12cm fans, 3 HDDs, a DVD burner, three memory modules, the i7 950 that I mentioned before and the TITANs.
I won't deny that I was thinking of buying a new power supply, but after reading this review (Review: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN in SLI - Graphics - HEXUS.net - Page 9), in which they used an i7-3770K with SLI of TITAN without problems, I thought about waiting and seeing how I was doing with the 750W.
Anyway, I'm not ruling out buying one soon so that I can do an OC on the TITANs in good conditions and be more secure.
No need..!
The 3770k has a TDP of 77W, ours of 130w, I doubt that 3770 had OC, but even so, when you put OC on ours, the consumption goes up to around 200W.
True, I haven't mentioned it before, but there I have RL circuits (2 pumps, of which only one is now working) and about 20 fans…:ugly: (small detail...........xD). Two SSDs and two WD Black.
So take away about 100W from my rig from the RL. That's very high. Your PC's consumption must be around 600/650 W. Even so, I see it as too tight when you put OC on the twins, that power supply is going to suffer. Also, I don't know if you've noticed, but when your rig is under load, it has to make more noise, the power supply fan will go up in revs.
Besides, it will be consuming more than it should. For a power supply to work well, it should be at 50/60% of its load, it would be its point where the work/consumption curve would be better positioned.
This is the efficiency graph of your power supply.

There you'll see what I'm talking about. The power supply is the backbone of a PC, if you give it wrong voltages in any component or overload it, you risk burning something. I'm not a fan of putting 1000W power supplies where they really aren't needed. But you would really benefit from one of those…..
Not because of the consumption, although yes, if not for the efficiency.
I myself have an Enermax Revolutions of 1250W, with about 4 years on its back, always working in rigs with high consumption. I'm really surprised how well it goes, with the work I've given it.
Recently I had it almost 6 months at the limit with a 4 way of 580. Playing always I was at 1100W. As soon as I put OC on those GPUs, and ran a 3Dmark, the power supply went to peaks of 1500W, and turned off for safety.
Now soon I'll put another Titan, and I calculate that I'll be again at those 1000/1100W. You notice a lot when the power supply is working like that, it stops being silent, and heats up a lot more. So I'll probably make the change to a 1500W. To be calm with that issue.
It's a very good power supply, but any day I say until here............:troll:
A consumption meter like the one I put in the image is worth nothing and less in any shopping center, in case you want to get out of doubts really............. ;).
Best regards

Totally agree that 750W power supply is working at the limit
Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:
GeForce GTX Titan - On your average system the card requires you to have a 550 Watt power supply unit.
GeForce GTX Titan 2x SLI - On your average system the cards require you to have a 800 Watt power supply unit as minimum.
GeForce GTX Titan 3x SLI - On your average system the cards require you to have a 1000~1200 Watt power supply unit as minimum.We'll be calculating the GPU power consumption here, not the total PC power consumption.

If anyone is interested, I can provide screenshots, but after a week with the Titan, in terms of its comparison with my previous SLI of GTX580, I can affirm without any doubt that the Titan is superior.
I have passed the typical batteries of tests, with a very limited overclock, only the GPU offset +50 (1.071 Mhz of Boost), without touching memories, and with the 980X at 4.400 Mhz by multiplier. Then I have compared with scores that I had saved from the previous SLI, all of them at the maximum that my GTX580 gave (between 850 and 900 of core with the memories also raised) and with the processor more raised in most cases because before I had a liquid cooling that I dismantled, and the results are always favorable to the Titan, sometimes by little, others by a fairly large margin. It doesn't matter if it's the Vantage, the 2011, the new 3dMark, Batman, Metro, etc., I always beat my previous record.
And this, with half the consumption, without noise (it is a real tomb next to the SLI of GTX580, I will not tire of saying it), and without the problems associated with SLI (microshuttering or lack of profiles in recent games).
Each day that passes I am happier, it exceeded my expectations this monster of graphics.
Greetings

Wow, I didn't think I'd see so many Titans in the forum, leñes :troll:
And, the move from a 460 SLI to 2 titans, wow...plus if you can say that the 460 is depreciated (what a great card, really...I feel like I didn't get enough out of it when I had it in the main, that's the only thing).
Anyway, enjoy them and give us healthy Nvidia
Regards!!

Pepillo, with permission of ELP3 contribute all the screenshots you can. I had an SLI of 580 before changing to the GTX 690.

Pepillo, con permiso de ELP3 aporta todas las capturas que puedas. Yo tenia un SLI de 580 antes de cambiar a la GTX 690.
Así, rápido, te paso unos 3dMark de la Titan contra el SLI de GTX580. El Firestrike:
El Vantage:
El 2011:
Ya miraré de poner más, tengo las capturas muy desordenadas debido al formateo y me cuesta encontrar lo que busco. Con los benchmarks de Futuremark es un momento darle a comparar resultados.

I see that the fire strike results with the 980 don't change at all compared to the 3930K. It defends itself very well. Man, we had almost the same equipment, lol, how curious.

Hello comrades. I decided to take a look around here…
I am thinking about joining the Titans club. But, I have the doubt of which assembler to choose. Is there any reason why you usually choose Gigabyte?
Let's see what you tell me.
Best regards.

Look at the price and warranty issue, for the rest they are all the same.

Welcome here, it doesn't matter which manufacturer because they are all the same, if you look closely, the standard ones are all Nvidia models, none of them say Asus or Zotac or Gigabyte, they are all the same, now then, other things will be of interest like price, extras, warranty, but I think they will be similar because they are all Nvidia models, the manufacturers only put their box with their brand but there is nothing on the card, besides, the OC will not matter this time because they will all come limited.

Thank you for your responses.
I am migrating from a 480 SLI to, in principle, a single Titan. I will see in the future, and it is that, I am a little tired of microstuttering... and it is that no one is aware of it until they get rid of it...
And, in addition, if I get rid of the INFERNAL noise from both graphics cards (I think I have lost some hearing with them ¬¬), it will have been worth it.

In none of the cases did the SLI GTX580 manage to surpass the Titan? did you try with games a little less demanding than Batman and Metro?

It's one of the most common, because they were the first to land.
I had another one reserved, but in the end I changed it for an EVGA Titan SC Signature. It arrives on Monday, I've been wanting to try an EVGA, since my 580s turned out so good.
Bye for now..

The tests are not passed in a "scientific" way, I just compare with scores and saved screenshots, some from a while ago, other drivers, another micro overclock, etc. But yes, there is some case where the SLI score is higher, although they are very few and with Titan overclocking they can be matched or improved. It is expected, since the Titan is below a 690 or a 680 SLI, but these in turn are superior to the 590 and the 580 SLI.
In my case, with my computer, the conclusion is that a Titan performs better than an SLI of 580. But the difference is not so great that it cannot vary with other parameters.

Indeed, if you value other things beyond FPS (and also in that there should be a difference from 480 to Titan), you will not regret it.

Is your resolution 1600p?, if so what difference do you notice from the SLI GTX 580 to the Titan in real games, and how would you recommend the transition from a single GTX 580 to a Titan for 1440/1600?
Salu2.

My resolution is 1920x1200.
Do I recommend switching from SLI GTX580 to a Titan? No, I can't recommend it. The price of the Titan is what it is, and that can't be ignored. What I can say is that I'm very happy to have done it, not for having more FPS, but for the greater smoothness, its similar or better performance, consumption, noise, the absence of MS problems and SLI profiles, etc. But from there to recommend it, there is a world, that is something that everyone has to value.
I bought it for quite less than a review, and I had my GTX580s set up, that's why I did it. If we eliminate the price factor, without a doubt it is better overall, but not enough for the investment it requires.Regards
