Test of the Real Nvidia Gtx Titan, single-sli-tri Sli, 4 WAY SLI
-
For the first time I really understand this smoothness that is so talked about in the GTX 480/580 when testing Crysis at 1440p playing at 20 fps and it runs smooth, it starts to falter from 15 fps, but with the GTX 285 the screen tearing and flickering was incredible at 20 fps.
Well the GTX 770/780 seem to have 3GB and if the Titan is 50% above the GTX 680 they should be at least 25-30% above the latter, because they have to keep selling when the Titan boom ends.
I think that NVIDIA themselves must have been caught off guard otherwise the lack of stock is not explained, they will probably have to expand that stock of 10,000 graphics cards, which in several countries we will not even see.
Regards.
Let's not start with the hateful hype that deceives so much.
It would just be too much if it now turns out that 20 fps, no matter how well placed they are (by the way, a merit of the graphics engine, it is already known that Crytek's engine is good at low average fps), are "smooth" when the minimum to which a movie is shown to minimally deceive the human eye is at 24 fps.
And I assure you one thing, nothing surpasses the "stability" of fps of a video camera, there are no latencies, the fps are not placed when they do not touch, nor is the "state of the world" shown outdated.
So that "20 fps and it runs smooth", it doesn't. It will impress you and everything you want, but it has nothing smooth about it. And much less "starts to falter" from 15 fps, please. ¬¬
P.D.: Possibly when your GTX 285 gave such bad fps rates it was more irregular for a reason that has nothing to do with the chip itself, but with the VRAM, which in this graphics card could run out in titles due to its long "durability" and that has faced games designed to use more VRAM.
Because the GT200 graphics cards have been the ones that have been best served by bandwidth (even with a "nice" bus of 512/448 bits, which really doesn't matter but as many people like it, I mention it), for the power they could deliver, and their ratio of TMUs and ROPs is very good.
Another matter is that the VRAM in games from 2 years ago onwards runs out easily, and scratches occur. But come on... the GT200s have been and are very smooth if they are not put in unfair situations (when I got rid of mine its VRAM was already being pushed to the limit, and that was about 3 years ago).
P.D.: What NVIDIA has incorporated in Fermi and Kepler (all of them) is extra hardware for better SLI operation in timing, but it is not even clear if this trend did not start before, only that Fermi and Kepler certainly incorporate this control and monitoring hardware. But this should not affect single GPU performance. What does affect is drivers, drivers and drivers. And NVIDIA in that sense does not abandon its previous graphics cards, as can be seen by checking that the GTX 580s do not "stand out" with the latest drivers of the GTX 600, despite the fact that the latter have been improving with each new driver release. Support is very important for the life of a graphics card.

Something very curious happened to me, when I overclocked the graphics card on my MSI Big Bang motherboard, it got stuck on the LCD that shows the error codes at 29. I was very frustrated, thinking it might be defective. I overclocked a 670 and it booted without any problems, and I did this several times, until I decided to update the motherboard's BIOS. I had the 1.3 because I was familiar with it and it asked for less voltage than the latest one for 4.9 Ghz.
I updated to the 1.5 and it booted perfectly… Why?, I have no idea...
Don't take much notice of me, but I think it's because the Titan has UEFI BIOS and the current BIOS on your motherboard didn't support it; but I'm telling you, don't take much notice of me...

And I assure you one thing, nothing beats the "stability" of fps from a video camera, there are no latencies, the fps are not placed when they don't need to be, nor is the "state of the world" shown out of date.
So that "20 fps and it's smooth", that's not really the case. It will impress you and all you want, but it's not smooth at all. And much less "starts to falter" from 15 fps, please. ¬¬
PD: Possibly when your GTX 285 gave such bad fps rates it was more irregular for a reason that has nothing to do with the chip itself, but with the VRAM, which in this graphics card could become scarce in titles due to its long "durability" and that it may have faced games designed to use more VRAM.
Because the GT200 graphics cards have been the ones that have been best served by bandwidth (even with a "nice" bus of 512/448 bits, which really doesn't matter but as many people like it, I mention it), for the power they could deliver, and their ratio of TMUs and ROPs is very good.
Another matter is that the VRAM in games from 2 years ago onwards would be depleted easily, and scratches would occur. But come on... the GT200s have been and are very smooth if they are not put in unfair situations (when I got rid of mine, its VRAM was already being pushed to the limit, and that was about 3 years ago).
PD: What Nvidia has incorporated in Fermi and Kepler (all of them) seems to be hard extra for the best functioning of SLI in timing, but it's not even clear if this trend wouldn't have started before, only that Fermi and Kepler surely incorporate this control and monitoring hard. But this shouldn't matter for single GPU performance. What matters there is drivers, drivers and drivers. And Nvidia in that sense doesn't abandon its previous graphics cards, as can be seen by checking that the GTX 580s don't "fall behind" with the latest drivers of the GTX 600s, despite the fact that the latter have been improving with each new driver release. Support is very important for the life of a graphics card.
It's not that I'm looking for explanations for why it performs the way it does, I just see how it performs. I changed the GTX 285 because at less than 30 fps it was already unplayable for me and until now, no game I've tried with the GTX 580 has ever dropped below 30 fps.
I'm just surprised at myself for not having stutters or flickers like before, also take into account that I'm not one of those demanding users ;D (my TV has an input lag of 120 ms) who look at every last detail, just that this graphics card is surprising me with how long it's lasting.
Salu2.

It's that this graphics generation is far ahead of what the software asks for, you need to use something very demanding to really require the performance of GCN/Kepler and not have a Fermi or even to a lesser degree an Evergreen (which seems like it's far away, but not so much).
Partly it's because of the console ports, and partly because you really don't need to break the performance of a graphics card to show great moments on screen, many games that have the best atmosphere are not the ones that ask for the most.
And this is accentuated if you're not too demanding with the fps either. But you should know that it's relatively normal that with Crytek engines 30-40 fps can seem more solid than the 60 fps of other engines (I'm not saying less fps because that's not enough for my level of demand, but it also happens).

@josele.:
Many congratulations Jotele and Pepillo for those graphics, they are great beasts…
Jotele, what a mess you've gotten yourself into with those monitors ;D
Jjejejee, the truth is, I didn't think they would suck so much…........xD. But it's worth it..
Thanks josele
Best regards..
Congratulations Jotole and Pepilo for those Titans. I hope you enjoy them and I'm looking forward to seeing that comparison of the tri sli of the 670 with the Sli of TITAN…....
And even more so to see them in water…........... jajajajaja
Hugs.
Let's see if I have it ready by the weekend coming….......
Best regards..

Those calculations are what I was doing with the 770/780, what I would lack would be vram with those 3 GB, I would have to get some "special" model with more vram, and I don't know if the price would be worth it with the wait/performance. I think I did well not to wait for that series.
I don't think they are limited edition as was rumored at the beginning, although it is true that I think even Nvidia didn't expect them to fly off like this due to their high price.
Best regards..

Jotole congratulations.
I look forward to your tests. As you know, I am very busy and not even at home, but I will try to follow them with the greatest possible interest.
A hug.

A hug.!!!
Today, after spending 4 hours fighting with the new bios, I have managed to stabilize the proc again at 4.9 Ghz.
Even so, I have had time to touch the oc on Titan a little. Indeed, the boost it marks from the start, it won't see it again except at certain points. Still, the gain with the oc on these cards is what Nvidia had accustomed us to with the 480/580.
I leave you a couple of benches...
The maximum oc I have reached has been 1255, but at the end of the 3Dmark 11 it has exploded….........xD. So I think it doesn't count........;D
Don't worry, you will be a bit tired of seeing bench tests nothing more.
I have tests at 6 of the most cutting-edge games of the moment, runs with the 3 way of 670, to face them to a sli of Titans. But seeing how it pulls one, I am going to include it in the comparison, so we will check the scaling, and you will see how it performs one of these alone, because it is impressive how it performs this card from the start.
A greeting...
P.D. Take the result of the 3Dmark 11 Second in the world….......... :ugly::ugly:

Congratulations Jotole, too bad about the boost and voltage problems because those cards could overclock well and perform better, let's see if the other one arrives.
Also congratulations to Pepillo, it seems they throw those Titans well.

Many thanks fjavi, the boost issues, they have to fix them for sure, I don't think they will leave the cards like that, I'm pretty sure about that. I would even say, that in any version of drivers or in some other way they will bypass the TDP lock, like it could be done in the 5XX series
The second one just arrived. ;).

You're already giving it your all in 3DMark :wall:

Many thanks fjavi, the boost problems, they have to fix them anyway, I don't think they will leave the cards like that, anyway I'm sure. I would even say, that in any version of drivers or in some other way they will bypass the TDP lock, like it could be done in the 5XX
The second one just arrived. ;).

Hello:
Well, following your responses and contributions with great attention, I think that for my case (C.D.), ATIs are more effective because they can work in SINGLE and DOUBLE PRECISION.
I think I will buy a 3rd ATI 7970 and have all 3 run together to process.
I will leave the GTX 580s as they are, as well as the Teslas.
Thanks to all of you, I am learning a lot.
Grateful.
Regards.

geltops, I don't know much about this, but the Titan can also work with single or double precision in CUDA:
Best regards
P.D. Each day that passes without new drivers makes me more eager to try one of those modified bios, it seems so simple …........ :wall:
Here is information on how to do it:

Ahora se ve hasta a ELP3 en la pagina de Asus,es el primero por aire con LN2 es otra historia aunque hay que saber,pero es raro que siga ELP3 tercero pues ya debería haber mas gente con LN2 y 4way.
saludos
"Lo uniquito que te hacia falta a ti… anda y tira pa' dentro si no quieres que te de una colleja". ;D
Ya tienes tu ganas también de pillar un par de ellas, a mi me da rabia que vendan tantas pues asi no bajan ni a tiros,pero según se decía era una serie limitada de 10000 unidades y a mi no me lo parece para nada,
creo que hay muchas mas.saludos
Muchas gracias fjavi, los problemas de boost, los tienen que arreglar si o si, no creo que dejen a las tarjetas así, vamos estoy segurisimo. Incuso diria, que en cualquier version de drivers o de alguna otra manera se saltaran el bloqueo de TDP, como se podia hacer en las 5XX
Acaba de llegarme la segunda. ;).
Un Saludo
Ojala sea verdad y lo arreglen, pues por ese precio debía ser algo como un extreme de Intel, tendría que
ser obligatorio que se pudieran ocear a muerte, da pena pues serian mas bestias aun.
saludos

Now even ELP3 is seen on the Asus page, it's the first by air with LN2, it's another story though you have to know, but it's strange that ELP3 is still third because there should already be more people with LN2 and 4way.
regards
You already have your desire to get a couple of them too, I'm annoyed that they sell so many because that way they don't go down even at gunpoint, but according to what was said it was a limited series of 10,000 units and to me it doesn't seem like it at all,
I think there are many more.regards
Two of them are out of my price range for me, at least at the price they are now, if in a few months they go down a bit it could be studied and with one I would be very even with my trio,
which by the way I'm very happy with, since I found the fault, thanks Elp3, I just enjoy it heheI want to tinker as much as anyone, to make a huge expense to have the same performance, none hehe
regards.
-
For me the RTX 2080 Ti is out of the question, at least at the price they are now, if in a few months they drop a bit it could be considered and it would be very similar to my trio, of which by the way I am very happy, since I found the fault, thanks Elp3, I just enjoy it jajaja
I want to tinker a lot like anyone else, to make a huge expense to have the same performance, none jajaja
Best regards.
Same here, I don't pay those prices, I recognize that they are very powerful graphics and also perhaps the best quality they made, at least in monogpu, but if I think that these should have been the 680, even if it was with 3Gb then I get sick, or a 780 and you already save a generation.
I don't even expect them to drop much because they won't, if AMD doesn't release anything until the end of the year Nvidia won't get off its butt.
regards
-
and considering the prices of 7970 and 680 when they came out, at the price that some of these are today,…the 690, and the performance of this thing, and especially the fluidity and the potential that can be seen in it,....even if they go down, I don't see them below 750-800 euros
regards

I feel the same way, I don't pay those prices, I recognize that they are very powerful graphics and perhaps the best quality they have made, at least in single GPU, but if I think that these should have been the 680, even with 3Gb then I get upset, or a 780 and you already save a generation.

The 2 is out of my price range, at least at the price they are now, if they drop a bit in a few months it could be considered and with one I would be very even with my trio, of which by the way I am very happy, since I found the fault, thanks Elp3, I just enjoy it jajaja
I want to tinker as much as anyone, but spending a huge amount to have the same performance, not a chance jajaja.
Best regards.
For those in the know, you can tell me compared to the Titan where this card would stand in performance, everything points to a price of $600-700.
NVIDIA may decisively hold on to the single-GPU performance lead, with its GeForce GTX Titan graphics card, but at roughly $1000, it could attract a very small market. According to a SweClockers report, NVIDIA is looking to woo gamers just ahead of Summer with the second GK110-based GeForce GTX graphics card. Similar in specifications to the fabled Quadro K6000, the new SKU could feature 13 out of 15 streaming multiprocessors on the GK110 silicon, working out to 2,496 CUDA cores, 208 texture memory units, a 320-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface holding 5 GB of memory, and 40 ROPs. Given that there's a deep ravine between the ~$450 GeForce GTX 680 and ~$1000 GTX Titan, NVIDIA could pick a price-point in the middle. The report claims the new SKU could launch some time between July and August, 2013

It's that at that price, it would be ideal… but until the GTX700 series comes out nanai... and we'll see.
Jotole good beasts... how do you do it that you always get all the good stuff? :wall:

I'm behind my friend Alcor so he can lend me one of his 480s and try the 4way jajajaj, but at the pace he's going, he'll send it to me when they implement the graphene chips :wall: :troll: jajajaja ;D
As long as my trio can handle current games at full settings, except for some filters, and they don't come out with some graphics solution that for 1000 euros, it doesn't matter if it's one gpu or two, beats the performance of what I currently have, I think I'll stay put, 1000 euros for graphics already seems like a lot to me.

Well if they drop to 750€ even the 1060€ that it currently costs are 310 € which if you buy two are 620€ which is soon said, even so I think it's an exorbitant price, but well if I paid with the 8800 Ultra why wouldn't I do it now jajajjaa.
Best regards.
At that price, it would be ideal… but until the GTX700 series comes out nanai... and we'll see.
