NoDamage posted:If I have a SFF case that would be better off with a blower instead of an open air cooler should I just get the 1080 Founders Edition instead of waiting for an aftermarket version? It looks like most of the aftermarket cards come with open air coolers. I'm in a similar situation, the consensus is the founders edition aint the best when it comes to power/cooling/overclocking, but if you need the card right now it'll do the job.

I cancelled my Fry's preorder and got in on the Amazon pre-order while it was still listed. So, crossing my fingers that this means me as well.

I guess the gigabyte g1 card that they've been tweeting would be on sale at newegg on 6/7 for the last week just went on sale early and sold out instantly,  e: I guess it went on sale at 8:00AM 6/7 in Taiwan. 🤔 fozzy fosbourne fucked around with this message at 01:51 on Jun 7, 2016 |

I did a bit more research and it looks like at least EVGA and MSI are making non-Founders Edition blowers, so I'll probably wait until those come out and pick one of them up. Those are the only two models I've found so far though.

oh hey a non-videocardz 1080 STRIX reviewKitguru posted:The Asus Republic Of Gamers Strix GTX 1080 sets a new high performance benchmark. It takes the superb Nvidia GTX 1080 Founders Edition and pushes it forward in all areas. It runs 14c cooler and not only outperforms all other video cards we have tested to date but it has a built in, highly customisable RGB lighting system. Asus even allow the connection of two extra 4 pin fans if you want to get creative. Bardeh posted:So do we have any idea when the non-FE 1080/1070 cards will be widely available? Widely as in, "load up a webstore and see a variety of 1080s/70s available to ship right away" widely? I'd say late July/early August. Right now it's a mess of delays, shortages and pre-order queues.

quote:We increased the GPU temp target to the maximum 92c and power target to 120 (+20). We got the memory running with a +522 offset (10532) and the core with a +122 offset (2058mhz). I increased voltage to +68. Any higher seemed to have a negative effect on the final overclock. 🤔

Depends on the game, not sure what was going on in GTA for example, but for me it's more about the noise and temps.

Guru 3d's total Warhammer DX 12 benches have the 1070 behind the Titan X, while the 390 gains enough to pass the 980. Hopefully that's not a trend that repeats in other games.

Here's a graph.  There experiments with cpu thread scaling (and hyperthreading) was pretty interesting:    So this game seems to benefit from going all the way up to 8 real cores and sees benefits from hyperthreading. That's pretty cool. Also, looking at how the graphics cards mostly plateau at 1080p made me realize something that I guess is kind of obvious in retrospect: if you are a competitive twitch gamer playing at low resolution and image quality settings, you probably should prioritize a fast cpu and memory if your goal is to solidly reach the server tick rate in everything and/or really high fps+hz.

That also sort of puts a hamper on the possibility of a "Gamer Ultrabook" like the Razer Blade Stealth due to its dual core i7 U series. Even with an external GPU that game will run like crap because its only a dual core with HT. Nice benchmark to show that with different cores +-HT though.

My 34" ultrawide is good enough for me and it's running quite well on a 290, CA almost unsold me on a new graphics card. Considering I was sucking it up and running Attila at 20 something FPS that's huge. Also bonus points to CA for the best exclusive windowed implementation I've seen in a while making it no sacrifice to play windowed for freesync. Reflects well on the Gaming Evolved branding, probably better than even Star Wars Battlefront.

Probably about 7 to 8 feet. I game from the couch with a wired controller or wireless keyboard/mouse. No input lag noticeable, and I believe the latency is aroun 30ms?
