How many Titan owners are with us?

I just became one.

I saw that thing, and I was like "DO WANT" ... but I don't think I can justify it. Got me a 980 right now and there's just not enough difference.

refresh our memory... what are your current system specs, what res do you play at/monitor, and how are your FPS vs. what you used to have? :D

Now don't laugh.

AMD FX-8350 @ 4720mhz
G.Skill DDR3 1866 2x4gb @ 2052 9-9-9
Crucial M4 256gb SSD x2 (Non-raid)
Windows 8.1 64-bit Pro

My monitor is a Samsung U28D UHD 60hz, I attempt to play everything at native resolution (3840x2160) While the 980 could mostly handle that. A few things would cap the Vram out.

So I got the Titan.


As for FPS.
On my GTX680 4gb, the FPS were steady @ 1080p, 1200p, and 1440p and roughly 40 @ 2160p
On my GTX980 4gb, the FPS were improved 2160p nearly averaging 60, but depending on what I would do, could incur the wrath of the 4gb frame buffer (even in MWO)

Having just received my Titan X yesterday I am just starting to play with it, but I can immediately see the difference in performance once I push up to, and beyond 4096mb of video memory usage.

4gb is NOT enough for UHD, and let no one convince you otherwise.

x8 MSAA / x16 AF
2048 map shadows

Just on caustic valley @ 2160p I can load up 5259mb of Vram and still get a playable 30fps, where with the 980 I would Vram cap and get a slide show.

Nice.... this is interesting indeed. Why would I laugh at you man? I can only assume you are refering to your AMD FX-8350? lol. I just came off running the FX-8350 and switched over to the darkside. I loved my FX chip had no issues with it in this game and 1440P on my new 32" benQ.

Holy hell man, you are playing on a 4K monitor right? I can understand maybe a 980 having some issues gaming on a 4K monitor...but at what point does a enough become enough? I am mean serously, $550+ dollar graphic card should be plently to play a game and not feel like you need to drop more on another card. I swear.... this game and even with the improvments being made on otimazations, I would say we are not there yet PGI. :wacko:

You should also enable DSR in your Nvidia drivers, Lordred. I've got mine at 1.5x with 33% smoothness. Makes the whole thing sharper. You could probably do 2.0x or higher DSR on your Titan X.

I could already go 2x playable with the 980, however MSAA does give a level of clarity that DSR cannot.


I will be experimenting with it though, that it for sure.

I dont know

since I'm not planning on going 4k just yet, and I'm not going for MFAA
mmm
I'm going to wait a few months for a GTX980ti

personally I'm more interested in going X99 and NVMe with a M2 SSD

too bad

I found it working once, but disregarded since I got problems in Windows 10 running a custom refresh rate on my LCD that way
and the UI doesn't scale well

I play 4K no AA (which on some things the 980 could not do well enough)

but I do use high amounts of AA for the screenshot thread. http://mwomercs.com/...eenshot-thread/

I have been a Titan X owner about a week ago. Any advice as far as what I can do to tweak it or get it to run MWO better? I got my settings maxed out AA is set to TXAA or whatever the highest is. Some maps sit at 80 fps as long as I am standing still. as i move around it goes up and down from 80-30 and back depending on the map. Game runs smooth. Just wondering what else i can do as far as nvidia settings go to get any sort of better performance.

I am running Z87 with I4770 K(i think?)
16 gigs and SSD HD

not sure if comp specs matter

And I have enjoyed my Titan X. The upcoming AMD will not have 12gb of memory, I am not worried.
