Test of the Real Nvidia Gtx Titan, single-sli-tri Sli, 4 WAY SLI
-
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.
Greetings.

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 GTX580s 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 get tired 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.
Regards
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?

Hello fellow users. I decided to take a look around here…
I'm thinking about joining the Titans club. But, I'm having trouble deciding which assembler to choose. Is there any reason why you usually choose Gigabyte?
Let me know what you think.
Best regards.
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

I thought you had a 1600p monitor, if from what I saw at 1920x1200 it practically moves almost everything over 80 fps, I don't know how it will play with the new vsync functionality 80 Hz will surely be appreciated, seeing that my GTX 580 is already a bit short for some games at 1440p I'm thinking about upgrading even though the price is beyond what I would like to pay :mad:, although when it arrives around here maybe the smaller Titan will be close by ;D.

Hello everyone!
I have read some of your great contributions and help in other forums.
I am glad to see you here.
I am saving up for a Titan or a cut down Titan (Let's hope it's worth between 600-800)
I was about to sell my Sli Gtx480 and Praimus was about to.
I decided to hold on to the stove for one more summer. Since performance is enough for everything these power-hungry ones.
The bad thing is when playing with 3 monitors of 24" I start to remove filters and +….
For now we will continue saving up for the beast and watching home reviews from all of you!!

Welcome fellow.
First of all, I invite you to review the rules and edit that signature.Regards

Welcome here, the 480s as well as the 580s have come out good but for those 3 monitor resolutions they are already struggling not because of power but because of vram, this is happening in some new games that are consuming a lot of memory.
The Titan besides already clearly outperforming a SLI of 480s and more at those resolutions, has plenty of Vram, just in case later on there is a bargain and you can put in two or more, but right now they are very expensive, I am also afraid that if they release a K20 it will also be expensive as they will not have competition apparently, if AMD releases the 8000 series then surely they would lower prices, also that nvidia would release the 700.
That's why I hope that maybe in the end two 780s will cost me what a Titan, I will upgrade my equipment, the bad thing is if they delay the 700 series as well as AMD with the 8000.

I have already noticed it with in the Hitman that I have to lower quite a bit the filters and AA so that it moves to 60fps without strange drops.
The Crysis 3 and the new Tomb Raider I have to taste with 3 monitors
I am saving for the new generation that has signs that they won't release it until 2014.
Since with the SLI Gtx 480 this summer promises a lot of heat!! Let's see if these Titans lowerRegards

Hello again, fellow users. Well, I've already set it up on my system, and, well, after seeing what's been posted here, I'm a bit disappointed. I'll explain. The maximum boost it gives me out of the box is 966. Leaving the power target at 100 and the temperature at 80. Fan auto. If I raise the power target to 106, it stays at 966 and 1.15 volts. Okay. I raise the temp target to 90 and I get the same thing, 966 at 1.15 volts. Disappointed because people around here talk about 1006-158-1150... The only way to reach 1058 is by raising the GPU clock offset. Here the boost goes up to 1084 and even 1150. That said, I ran OCCT and it's stable at 1084. At 1150 it crashes (I get errors), but it's stable (from what little I've tested) in games. Let's see if you can help me out. I'm in the testing phase. Thanks. -
Hello Teeth.
The Titan runs at 837 with a boost of 876. From there, each one gives a different boost without touching anything, which comes "as a gift" and cannot be guaranteed, the most common ones are your 966, the 1,006, and a third of something more that I no longer remember. Mine gives 1,006, others give more, and others, like yours, less. If you only increase the voltage, the boost also increases, in my case 1,032. For more, it's time to play with the core offset, test stability and throttling, but as always in this world of overclocking, no two graphics cards are the same and not all of them do 1,200 Mhz, so don't worry about it and don't be upset about 50 Mhz less and enjoy that piece of a graphics card.
As a curiosity, what ASIC do you have? In my case it is 78.1%
Regards

Hello Pepillo. Thanks for your help.
The graphic card holds up well up to 1150 OC, but I have it at 1084. Without touching voltage. The memos go well even at 6500, but I haven't touched them.
The ASIC is quite low, 66.9. That's what made me doubt about returning it.
Anyway, from 980 to 1006 it's not that there's an abyss, and, overclocking it, it goes up well to 1084 and stays there stuck.
What do you think about the ASIC?
-
1.084 Mhz without touching voltage, it seems more than correct to me, if it's without Throttling, many would already want it.
Look, I'll explain myself: These cards come limited by consumption and temperature. The maximum you can go up to, without changing the bios, is 106% of consumption, and the temperature to 95º, which doesn't normally affect because in a well-cooled case, neither with overclocking nor overvoltage does it go beyond 80º-82º. Due to a problem recognized by nVidia itself, the drivers read a lower consumption than the real one, but when you get close to 97%-98% you are in reality already at the limit of 106%, the 265W, and they start to lower the clock and the voltage, the famous throttling. This can only be fixed by flashing the bios to allow the 300W.
Therefore, touching the voltage immediately brings negative consequences, consumption skyrockets and throttling appears earlier. It also happens, for example, if you modify the fan profile to keep it cooler (something totally unnecessary, by the way, since the temperature limit is not reached due to its excellent series cooling) that it consumes more.
In short, in my experience, the best thing is to look for the maximum that you can do with the series voltage and without throttling appearing. Look, this is the maximum that I achieve in those conditions:
1.150 Mhz of core and the memories at 6.302 Mhz. The core can't hold much more without raising voltage, which would skyrocket consumption and lower my clock, and the memos, although it can go up more, I'm already at the consumption limit, peaks of 96%-97%, anything I touch already makes throttling appear. That is in my opinion the ideal overclock for a Titan. If you look closely at the graph on the left, you'll see how the GPU speed remained stable at those 1.150 Mhz throughout the benchmark. For example, with the core at 1.163 Mhz and the memos at 6.400 Mhz, it also holds without raising the voltage, but there are punctual drops in speed in the test for exceeding the maximum consumption. Although I can go up more if I touch the voltage, and even achieve some marginally higher score in the overall test, I would do it at the cost of losing that stability of the processor clock, with ups and downs, and that seems to me to be a bit of self-deception about the card's capacity. If you want more, you have to flash the bios to allow those 300W, otherwise, I assure you that I have read the entire thread of overclock.net of the titan, more than 6,000 posts, and most would be more than happy to have a Titan like mine, that without touching bios or voltages, reaches 1.150 Mhz of core with 0 Throttling. Don't believe everything you read about 1.200 Mhz or more, they do it with throttling or with modified bios that allow greater consumption, without knowing the effect it can have in the long term on the card. That said, check that the core clock is stable in your overclock.
As for the ASIC, in this series many claim that it has a lot to do with those differences in boost from one card to another. Go figure, in any case, I don't think there's a big difference between your card and mine.
Regards
