all the Ti high end have a shelf life of around a year only before its replaced..

it always good to buy the 70/80/Titans when its launched in comparison. You would have gamed at least 2 years before the new architecture is released.

2.1 stable.. is temp related. Need under 40c.

New driver out.
Lots of fix including x299 sli

errr most of the cheap 4k tvs cannot run 4:4:4 chroma sampling at 4k.

Yeah but marketing for tvs saying 4k has matured leaps and bounds
True 4k with 4:4:4 chroma at 1:1 pixel mapping still not that cheap

Guys agent of mayhem worth it.

go with poseidon. it does dump much heat to the loop and clocks like crazy.
da hybrid thing pretty useful.

gtaV u need a good high clock high core cpu

its requirement is insane for 60fps smooth
for
4k 60fps smooth 1080ti sli
1440p a 1080 sli
1080p a 1080ti oced to 2100 min

and then atleast 32gb fast rams
6/8 core cpu recommended

for sli theres a big gain from running 8x,8x to 16x,16x for this game

many ppl dint seem to realize u need to have equivalent amount of ram to your vram for swapping.

11gb card with 16gb ram.. thats suicidal. you gonna use alot of slow read/writes from pagefile on ssd/hdd.

32gb is now mainstream bro.

8700k is a beast at 4.7 to 5ghz at its seriously a much needed cpu for 1080/1080ti.

yup got one. 43c if i run my rad fans maxed out
2139/12356. gpu fan 100%

but i run it 2088/11016 rad fans at 600rpm. temps max 52c. gpu fan default silent.

y i dont oc vram. my experience on ocing gpu especially cutom pcb cards.. they first thing to die is always the memory controller. the gain from vram oc its too littld to justify.

yup gtx1080.. 16gb ram is passable...
8gb for swapping
8gb for game/windows ( windows 10 the last two versions when u enable exclusive fullscreen and no background nonsense.. it handles pretty well ) so around 2-4gb pagefile

but 1080ti most ppl are gaming at 1440p-4k..
lots of vram usage.. so.. 16gb is not enough

if u want to test this.. test on Call of Duty Advance warfare ( can makan all 11gb ram) or shadow of mordor ( the 1st one).. can makan 9gb
watch when u are entering new rendering scenes.. watch the fps drops...

disable pagefile in windows
use afterburner
enable osd for ram+pagefile.
so now ram shows the amount of physical ram is being used
pagefile ( since its disable) .. is the amount being reserved+used..... the closer u are to your max.. the more fps drops you are gonna see

so example u see ram usage 8gb and pagefile 15gb.. so in ure system ram.. 8gb is physical... 15gb minus 8 = 7gb is the amount being reserved.
you should try to make sure the pagefile stated here is less than the total ram amount u have ...

galaxy having a damn good promo atm
2.2k for gtx1080

gtx1080 and ti has a huge advantage for streamers with the 2 Nvenc chips on board compared to 1070 1 chip.

havent found the spec for 1070ti whether it has 2 nvenc chips

thats game engine issue dude.

if u want to check whether you are having issue with vram swapping. follow that instruction i stated before.

titan V looks like supped up pascal with hbm2.

normally every major gen from nvidia will have lower cuda core but higher single precision compute. but this card just all increase to max level.

pity dudes that bought da starwars version in sli cause chances are one of these will be equivalent since sli gains on min fps normally arnd 50% mark.

from what i can see on pascal

theres O per cuda core compute gain

titan V look like a pascal with 30% more cuda cores with hbm2 and some crippled tesla gpu.

its like kepler/maxwell all over again

leap in architecture for nvidia generally example a gtx2080 should be 2k cuda cores but has 30% more single precision numbers than 1080ti

the guys i pity the most is those who bought titan xp sli (starwars)

Titan V is a better buy than SLI titan xp. difference of usd 600 in this buyers segment is mute.

i personally will advice ppl skip any new nvidia gpu until new games that use dx12 graphical tech comes out. blame console dudes for this. dx12 only low level api improvement is being uses atm. sad actually.

blame pubg dudes for supporting a screwed up game that has terrible graphics, devs that dont care about driver optimization since they are indie.

gaming graphical growth now is actually stunted.
technicallt it shouldnt be. cause theres more gamers now and more cash to be made. even screwed up games can profit. so guessing all sa devs now just making games for money.
look at how many new games had terrible optimization issue. most of these games takes a year for all the bugs to be fixed.

da VRAM usage with RAM..

so here is a example 1440p COD WWII... vram usage 10GB...
watch the pagefile reach 19gb... thats a royal bang for ppl with 16gb of RAM.
even gtx1080... with full vram 8gb usage and swapping.... with 16gb worth of RAM.. u need to disable everything in da background to prevent pagefile swapping from ure hdd/ssd which will result in stutter.

disclaimer.. MRANTIFUN. . da latest cod always gives a total system workout..

reviewers.. LOL. bro havent u realize its a joke now for da term reviewers.

very few good and proper reviewers out there.

seems like nvidia last few drivers broke vsync application control with gsync..

need to disable vsync in ncp.

i read it when it was first posted last time.

its full of rubbish.

vram , ram swapping is real.
u can test this ure self with a fps monitor.
see the frametime variance when it hits your max ram.
check again with pagefile
and check again with more ram with pagefile disabled.

frametime dude.. see da frametime.

i always find cod games.. advance warfare etc etc.. always a good workout for total system stability...
its constantly reading from ssd to ram to gpu...
so if anything is off.. u will feel it immediately..

what i am annoyed now is the vsync issue in ncp.

dont have to. not gonna spoon feed ppl.

its a matter of u testing it yourself vs believing da noobs out there.

when did this issue popped up.
it started with shadow of mordor. that time titan black/og titan had most amount of vram 6gb. ppl complained about frame stuttering when they entered a new map etc..
noobs didnt believe.then titan x 12gb was launched. nvidia stated the requirement of 24-32gb of ram on da spec. ppl started flaming. Nvidia ammended it to 16gb ( with pagefile enabled).

then came call of duty advance warfare. 10gb-11g usage as it caches ahead. ppl started bitching about stuttering etc on 980, 980ti , titan X etc etc. most Tx users has 32gb since most of them were on x99. so u will find no complain from tx users.

and now. 1080 etc. in my group i help.. ppl that i value.. they are the proof. gaming differs to individual
some are ok with 30-60 fps. some 50-60ms ping. its the same case for the current topic. do u have
1. the capability to discern
2. the capability to optimize everything

food for thought.
btw dx instruction works like this

data is read from ssd/hdd to ram to vram which is fed to gpu.
cpu is tasked to handle the transfer from ssd/hdd to ram and from ram to vram.
gpu can only read from vram.
(btw thats why nvidia unified architecture interesting if it ever comes out to mainstream... gpu can read from ram directly)


new api spreads the task for the multicore cpu so it wont be a single heavily tasked core and it reduces driver overhead . meaning game engine optimization

so which part u think vram swapping doesnt matter.
