I seriously doubt anyone in this forum would actually own 2 x titan Z @_@ I could be wrong again.

Not two. Just one. Once "The Furnace" (Crossfire 290X) completes, I'm planning an SFF Titan Z build. Something along the lines of Digital Storm Bolt, iBuyPower Revolt or Falcon Northwest Tiki kind of form factor.

I've talked to the customer service relations staff of Digital Storm online, and although their SFX PSU can cover up to 700W of power, which is plenty enough for Titan Z's 375W TDP, the same reason they're not offering Titan Z in their build configurator as when the GTX690 was introduced: half of the hot air is exhausted back into the case, and this is not advisable for case interior of such slim profile. Have to look for other options to do this. Maybe the Asrock M8 or the Silverstone Sugo.

Mostly advertisement or ROI only. Never see anyone have stock otherwise I'd be asking them for one already.

Pre-order from them perhaps ?

I'm flip-flopping between this and 295X2. Undecided. I have them monitored on FB anyway, so once signs of stock coming in, I'll make a decision.

Purchased this from Newegg. Hopefully arriving before my birthday this 16th.



Acer XB280HK 28" 3840x2160 4K monitor with Nvidia G-Sync.

I have the ROG Swift 144Hz 2560x1440 G-Sync monitor, but trying to get the framerates up to 144fps requires serious quality setting downgrade to take full advantage of the ROG Swift, compared to keeping the settings maximum at 4K on 60Hz.

its the very same one APES promote during a convention at KLCC right?

GSync indeed is good (i was there to test the monitor as well), but yeah, 144Hz is really hard to achieve with single or dual cards sweat.gif

do give a review when it arrived smile.gif

That one is the Asus ROG Swift, 27" 2560x1440 at 144Hz with G-Sync. This one is the Acer XB280HK, 28" 3840x2160 at 60Hz with G-Sync. Both are priced at USD799. So it depends on which one you prefer: 1440p at 144 frames per second or 4K at 60 frames per second. I find that my usage fits the 4k60 than 1440p144. Like I mentioned earlier, it's harder to push a game to 144fps to get the full benefit of the ROG Swift panel, WITHOUT having to drop quality settings. With 4k60, I can opt not to have any AA and still have it above 45fps. And from Linus's observation in that video I linked above, framerates around that figure gets smoothen out by G-Sync, eliminating both tearing and lag.
