First tests of Nvidia's 980 and 970
-
Hello everyone.
The truth is that I am totally disconnected from this little world, it's good to do it even if you don't believe me..;)
However, I have been very surprised by the new architecture. It really has a potential and efficiency never seen before..
My curiosity has been so piqued, that perhaps with luck, as I still have contacts, in a few hours we will see a few GTX 980 in action….;D
Best regards.
Welcome, although you should not expect much in terms of performance against your Titans although perhaps you will show us some wonders in terms of OC.
Regards.

That's that, you go ahead because these are the ones we like the most, here we see all the pros and cons, I'm surprised with some OCs that are seen, with stock voltages nothing modified.
But you know that many appreciate you giving your first-hand opinion after knowing almost all the current cards.
Kinping already put the EVGA to over 2GHZ of GPU-Z, it wouldn't be strange that in reality they are 2.2ghz, because it seems that it has boost.

In your case, it must be better to have three than two, three 970 should perform better at those resolutions, two 980 will have the advantage if a third is added later, but buying at once is better to have three.
It's that for the price of two 980 you get three 970, and if we talk already between one 980 and two 970 the difference will be quite large in favor of two, although a bit more expensive.
Although for 4K I wouldn't put 2 customized, I would put at least one stock, if it's a good cooler like the one on the Titan even better, because they could get hot, especially the one on top.
Best regards

I already have them around here.
The TITANs are monsters, but it has to be acknowledged that they haven't gone very far... I'm having problems with them and I haven't put voltage.De into one of them for centuries. In fact, I have no choice but to do an RMA on one of them already, because it's more like that way than this way.
That's one of the main reasons.Si. If the 4 would work with all their potential, I wouldn't bother to try them out... but well, it's already impossible to find TITANs and besides, the price would be absurd.
I'll upload something later.
bye for now.

Knowing ELP3, he won't go below 3 or 4 graphics, he will surely give good reference on scaling, I think with 2 970s I'm well served, but for the price of these 970s, it's not a problem to add a third after reading a lot, I'm passing on the Asus Strix, even though I love that they are 0db, having 50ºC at idle on 2 graphics doesn't appeal to me, the reference ones with their 24 cm by 11.5 would be ideal to keep distance between them in SLI.

Yes, for anyone who has graphics cards like the Titan, 780, 780Ti, it's not worth changing, although people end up doing it to tinker or to reduce noise and consumption, but it's a shame that there isn't more competition because with Maxwell they could bring out graphics cards that are quite powerful even in 28nm.
The performance per watt leaves Kepler at a standstill and even more so GCN, the bad thing is that they're going to give it drop by drop.

Bueno empecemos por algo:
-
Well, well, well… just like Elp3, since I set up the SLI of 780Ti I'm somewhat disconnected... just enjoying the games without worrying about the tinkering... XD
Although seeing that you already have 4 bitches of these here, I'm sitting in the front row to see how they behave...
Thanks Elp3...! A hug and enjoy.

Bueno empecemos por algo:
Muy interesantes esas Gigabyte, aunque sus 31cm no es para todo el mundo, al tener 2 conectores de 8 pins me da la sensación de tener mas potencial de OC que las otras customs.
Están montadas sobre socket 2011 o 2011-3?
Salu2.

Bueno, bueno, bueno… al igual que Elp3, desde que monté el SLI de 780Ti estoy algo desconectado... simplemente disfrutando de los juegos sin preocuparme del cacharreo... XD
Aunque viendo que ya tienes 4 bichas de estas aquí, voy sentándome en primera fila a ver cómo se comportan...
Gracias Elp3...! Un abrazo y a disfrutar.Si ya se te ve por steam con los juegos, en cuanto a estas graficas creo que ahora no te interesa cambiar por rendimiento, lo mejor es seguir con las 780ti hasta que salgan los 20nm y ya mirar un GM200 o 210, que es donde se debe ver una mejora grande.
Esas si que deben destacar con resoluciones altas, además deberían tener todas las mejoras de estas y alguna nueva, las 780ti siguen siendo unas bestias.

Very interesting those Gigabyte, although their 31cm is not for everyone, having 2 with 8 pin connectors gives me the feeling of having more OC potential than the other customs.
Are they mounted on socket 2011 or 2011-3?
Regards.
They are reference ones Patagonico, I can't mount 4 customized ones.
First contact.
Unigine 1080p everything to the extreme and 8 layers of aa 1080p and an OC close to 1500MHZ with 0,5 v of extra voltage..
Not bad at all the result.
Regards.
uff, I made a mistake, I didn't put ultra in quality…then I do it..;) the lack of custom..jeje
-
Unigine doesn't seem to be its strong point, according to reviews, it runs like a 780Ti or close to it but it's not where they excel, you can see that tessellation no longer increases even though it's the performance chip, which isn't bad either, the big one should definitely stand out clearly.
What I find interesting is the DSR thing, I don't think that can be done with Kepler.
Regards
-
Patagonico is the reference, I can't mount 4 customized ones
Oh I didn't see any Gigabyte reference, even on their pages the only ones published are the custom ones

This is although maybe not even gigabyte has it on their website, they will have several websites, they will have it on the main one
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 980 4GB GDDR5 GV-N980D5-4GD-B Graphics Card
For SLI that cooler is very good.

Nice it reminds me of the Titan, I suppose the GTX 970 will be the same pointed design to keep it in mind.

Bonita me recuerda a la Titan, supongo que la GTX 970 será mismo diseño apuntada para tenerla en cuenta.

Quiza con la 970 sea mucho mas difícil de ver ese disipador, la 770 no vi ninguna con el, solo al principio alguna reviews, vi alguna de referencia de MSI y es malo parecido al de 680, no se si veremos alguno, debe ser caro y no se lo ponen.
Las que veo aquí 970 ninguna tiene ese, la palit tiene uno de referencia pero malo.

Well, let's see, I have already passed it under conditions.
I preferred to use the MSI, since I am more familiar with it and you can increase the final boost frequency more, it has been around 1506MHZ.
I think the result is excellent.
Why? Because I used this test on purpose, since I know it is not their strong point, and even though it has been ages since I benchmarked this, and it is possible that there has been an improvement in drivers, I would be almost sure that a Titan or 780Ti should go above 1375MHZ to match/surpass this score. With the difference that those, especially the TITAN, would need to be done with modified bios, voltage up to the hilt and RLS. While here you take a reference card, you give it 100% to the fan, which does not pass in the 65º temperature test, you barely put voltage (I will explain the voltage issue later, more voltage is worse) and you don't change the bios, nor RLS nor anything.
I do not justify a change for anything, not even from 780 for this, but it has to be recognized that nvidia has done a great job with this thing... because it performs amazingly and consumes, already in these overcloks, like 150W less than the TITAN to give a similar score.
Best regards.

Well, it was already strange that you weren't interested in taking a look at graphics cards like these given that they seem to have come out so curiously, even though you had been a bit disconnected for a while. :troll:
I think you'll like them quite a lot even though at first glance you might see them as "weak" graphics cards against the more seemingly robust Titan (more VRAM, more bandwidth, more more... ), the general impression I've been left with from so many reviews and cameos with the little maxwell is that nvidia had found a way to greatly improve the original "mojo" of the kepler, to make them better where they were weakest and improve a little in everything else.
I already told you that the numbers aren't good companions to judge them, let's see how these ones go, but I think they'll surprise you more than disappoint, even though you're already used to similar levels of performance.
-
If you set that as the reference, the custom ones should go higher for having better phases, which seems like GPU-Z is wrong, it says 32 Rops and they are 64 I think, I guess it's a mistake.
They don't look bad because with 4 of those you won't have a power supply problem, nor will you need RL, I think we'll see a lot of SLI of these because you shouldn't need much power supply nor does it seem like the 256bits will be much of a bottleneck.
Also now you have to take into account that it still gets hot, now you can't watercool like in winter and even less with stock cooling, now the phases and the GPU get hotter, but these cards aren't bad, I'm going to try a 970 and retire the 480s that have already served their time, I'm not switching to a 780, I'll keep both.

ELP3 leaving the fans below 75% what temperature do the graphics reach?
Will you try some game benchmarks to see the SLI 3-4 way scaling?
Best regards.

It's just an OC test. So I don't know..
The profile is superconservative, and they are quieter than any previous GTX that already eran.Es possible that below 75% it doesn't increase more than 4 or 5 º…
I'm going to set up the 4 Way. But first I'll see which one is the best to make master..
Best regards
