I haven't been here in awhile, and am glad to be posting here now

so as title states, what's the difference between the Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 and 750 Ti?

Right now all I see is a better overclock...

is there anything else, like more memory or something like that?

And also: what power supply should I grab to supplement these two bad boys? Should I grab a 400W, or a 450W to be safe?

And don't worry about where I'm getting it, I know exactly where to get some

Thanks!

Pretty sure the 750 Ti has more shaders, texture units, higher clocks, and the stock configuration had more VRAM (though I think there may be some 2GB VRAM 750s floating around somewhere...).

[Catamount]

The clocks are the same on both cards. What the TI version has is 40 TMUs vs 32, and 640 stream processors vs 512. Memory configurations vary on both, as both have 1GB and 2GB versions, though the TI has a 4GB version. The have the same number of ROPs.

I've never been clear on exactly how much relative contribution comes from the stream processors, TMUs and ROPs, but if you average the difference in the three, the 750TI ought to be about 17% faster, and that pretty consistently seems to be the difference, give or take, though sometimes it's a smaller gap (eg Crysis 3).

I’m using both cards to play this game.
The GTX 750 has 1GB and 512 CUDA Cores
The GTX 750Ti has 2GB and 640 CUDA Cores

The clock rate depends on the card manufacture, but the Ti usually has a higher clock rate.
With the GTX 750 the game is playable at 1080p with low settings and you’ll get (depending on map and Mechs) around 50-120fps, with an i7 & 16 GB RAM.
MWO will look and play a bit smoother with the Ti, due to the extra RAM

The GTX 750 will run with almost any power supply, it’s rated at 55W.
The GTX 750Ti is rated at 60W, but in reality (due the higher clock rate) will draw more power.
The “office” PC’s has an i7, 16GB RAM, SSD & HDD with a 280W PSU – it works very well with the GTX 750 for hours playing MWO, but can’t handle the Ti.

I remain dubious of the 750 Twins, for loads as mere as madVR, as the texture throughput is less then on a GTX 650Ti, but here we have someone whom could put numbers to them.

So, Doughbag: What settings are you using, and are you dropping the textures down to Medium for the 1GB card? Any idea as to how bad the stalls are?

With the GTX 750 in this PC: http://www.fujitsu.c...primo-p520-e85/
i7, 16GB, SSD & HDD

Resolution 1920x1080
DX11
Settings: LOW
Damage Glow: off
Motion blure: off
AA: off

Game runs smooth at drops to ~50fps with highest about ~120fps

The buildings textures are rendered only when looking at them and when your getting close.

The 750Ti can handle the draw distance way better and you can turn on damage glow with the same framerate.

My current setup uses the 2GB GTX 750. With a i7-4790S, 12GB DDR3 and the GTX 750 2GB I run everything on HIGH except particles which are set to MEDIUM at 1920x1080 on DX11. I get consistently low 50's on the FPS and only dips to the mid to low 40's during heavy action on the new Forest Colony or RIver City maps. I am replacing this card very soon with a GTX 970 from EVGA.

[Doughbag]

The 1GB makes the difference I guess.

[Scout Derek]

Hmm, so the GTX 750 Ti is moreover better, so how would it run on medium settings then?

[Catamount]

Both cards will probably run it on medium or better just fine. If people are getting drops into the 50s on a stock i7, that sounds like CPU, not GPU, especially if that GPU can pump out 120fps (or in between numbers) for a lot of the rest of the time. MWO is not enormously variable in GPU load (as far as I've seen; feel free to correct) just CPU load.

That said, if you can spring for the TI, there's just no reason not to, not unless the normal 750 is running on some kind of really good deal, which they do sometimes.

[Goose]

… The both of them are below the GTX 660/ R7 265 tier that somehow got named as a minimum.

Presumably, a GTX 950 would be the same tier as a R7 370, and there are reasons to get a Block Two Maxwell over the block ones …

I can remember de-tuning the game when I traded down to a GTX 580 (from a 680,) at the request of Support, back in the DX9 days. Ooops: Mashing up two related stories. The DX9 thing actally showed no changes, but I was a i7-920 with DDR3-1333 at the time; When the GTX 680 died and was in the mail, putting the 580 in with a i7-990X showed card-related issues, but we where DX11 by then …

If anyone know that a GTX 960 can play the game full-song, they haven't said so …

please dont ever use GPUboss or CPUboss

that website is Intel and nVidia bias

Well, as they say a video says more than thousand words - you can see my GTX 750 in action

Thanks for the demonstration! I'm actually quite impressed by the card, able to keep 60 fps, but at low settings, but (again heheh) you're recording at max settings...

Well, I'm getting the gxt 750 ti, so I should be able to experience something slightly better than what was shown.

Again, thanks for the responses! I really do appreciate it!

Now I have to wait for it... because I ordered one for a good price

Not really, it's just nonsensical.

I usually use this to compare.

You're welcome.
Yeah, I was surprised myself on how great this cheap card performs.

I ran the Ti as well and the game looks that bit better.

This.

If you wanna compare Hardware use some reviews by known review sites. And even those can't tell the full story.

[The Lost Boy]

I have the TI and it runs a solid 60ish fps, thru thock and thin on low. I have a amd hex core( i know i know), and 16 gigs of ram. The fan is loud when it spools up under duress but otherwise its decent for the price.

[Scout Derek]

Well, I got the card, and....



Forgot I needed to change the motherboard to a PCI Express

So now I gotta go buy one...
