Wah, founded in 1993, 19 years only
I tot 1980++

anyone here running a Asus GTX670 TOP with a Gigabyte Z77 G1.Sniper 3 motherboard? I have problem running the GPU on the X16 slots of the motherboard. Just wondering anyone else encounter this problem.

What sort of problems you're encountering? You may need to be more specific so that the folks here can help you out.

yay v10. im waiting for gtx660 review

TS take over from Jean Reno? Congrats for V10.

Reporting in as a proud owner of a giant 2.5 slot Palit Jetstream GTX 680.

List of games I'm really looking forward to pushing with my new GPU this year:

- Assassin's Creed 3
- Borderlands 2
- Black Ops 2 (??)
- F1 2012
- Medal of Honor Warfighter
- Mechwarrior Online
- War of the Roses

All titles support DX11.

Reporting In~~V10 YO~~~~

Asus Gtx670 Direct CU II here~~~~going to try to max

Max payne 3
Prototype 2
LA Noire
Grid 2 (coming soon)
Battlefield 4 beta (inside MOH warfighter)?

You guys should be trying out sleeping dogs. Seems to be a very good game in both graphics and game play. Hong Kong crime movie plus with gta yo!!

High score in 3DMark 11 & Unigine Heaven benchmark with iGPU are caused by Lucid MVP, almost double the score. It's not bugs. Solution; open Lucid MVP, on system tray right click disable MVP. Somehow I click off but MVP still running. I try to disable Lucid MVP on start up but I didn't know which exact service or program that was executed on start up. However in gaming performance, the boost is not that high as above two apps.

Another thing, IMO high end GPU should disable Lucid MVP, or just uninstall. Tried GTX 550 Ti with Lucid MVP, game feel smoother on Mafia II compare with no Lucid MVP, no bugs or artifacts. Tried with HD 7970, of course smooth, no bugs or artifacts. Tried with GTX 670, artifacts like shit and game play not smooth. Driver tested, both latest stable and latest beta.

However, this is tested on pirated game. Who knows any game update will improve the compatibility issue. For now, I just disable my Lucid MVP with my GTX 670. HD 7970 and GTX 670 perform really well without Lucid MVP. I'd say, Lucid MVP is a marketing gimmick. Quite weird because GTX 670 are not friendly with Lucid MVP. Maybe GTX 680 user can try and share.

Palit GeForce GTX 680 2GB JetStream review

turn on triple buffering in NVIDIA panel and subtle stutter gone in FIFA 12 (Vsync on)

lol very tricky 1. i thought game probs/driver bug

last time, i use HD5870 didn't need to turn on triple buffering

Nvidia Responds to GeForce 600 Series V-Sync Stuttering Issue

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/GeForce-G...-Fix,15670.html

Triple buffering should be on all the time, I see no reason to off it.

Adaptive V-Sync are still early stage, it gonna need to take like 1-2yrs to reach perfection, in the mean time just use ingame V-Sync with tripple buffering on.

GTX 600 series got a worldwide stutter issue right now
so far i found only fifa 12 experienced it. 1 sec stutter.

there were some issues with Kepler's vsync. nvidia recommend to turn it off in game/NV panel

HOLY SHIT. Leadtek GTX660Ti for RM8XX??? Typo or what?!

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2471847



Over here shows RM999 and RM1069. I'm guessing MSI goes for RM999 and RM1069 is for ASUS/Giga
