Did the Asus GTX 670 DCUII never come out? http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-GeForce-GTX-670-DC2T-2GD5-GTX670-DC2T-2GD5/dp/B0081IFO3G I waited on this thing forever and now I see EVGA has a 399 card that's not out of stock yet. I just wanted the nice cooler...

How much quieter are the 2-fan/3-fan full PCI board configurations of the GTX 670 compared to the baseline ones? Been waiting 2 weeks for one of the custom ones. They seem to be in really short supply. I just don't want another jet engine solution like my GTX470 or Radeon4890 before that.

EVGA gtx670FTW edition report: Got the core clock to 1204mhz. 1205 crashed in Unigine after 2 hours. Now testing memory but it doesn't seem to go much past 6250mhz. Not worth OCing since the stock OC is already 6200Mhz Compared to my old GTX470 with 15% core OC, it's drat impressive. Also very quiet. 2560x1440 battlefield 3 maxed GTX670: 45-50fps, 1.7GB Vram GTX470: 10-20fps 2560x1440 Diablo 3 maxed GTX670: 60fps, 1.5GB Vram GTX470: 45-50fps 1920x1080 Super Mario Galaxy emulator GTX670: 55-60fps GTX470: 40-50fps 2560x1440 Skyrim maxed, HD texture mods, and crazy Russian man's ENB graphics wrapper with all the bells and whistles: GTX670: 35fps. Consistently capping the 2GB Vram. Slow loading and occasional hiccups. GTX470: Crash, computer frozen. Not kernel panic. 1920x1080 Skyrim maxed, HD texture mods, and crazy Russian man's ENB graphics wrapper with all the bells and whistles: GTX670: 50-60fps. 1.7-2GB VRAM used. Still slow loading. GTX470: 17fps 2560x1440 Crysis Warhead Maxed GTX670: Will report later GTX470: 25fps I was slightly worried about the 2gb vram and my fears were somewhat confirmed. Hitting 2GB at 2560x1440+ is pretty easy I suspect for future games, but the only released game that consistently caps was Skyrim with some outrageous 2048x2048 textures.

Is there a timeline for the next generation of cards? I'm on a 470gtx and it's going at about 15fps with everything off in witcher 3.

FakePoet posted:I likewise got one of the aforementioned MSI Gaming X 1080s, and I am historically not really an early-adopter type, but I figure it'll last me a while. Downside is, I'm pretty lazy as far as recouping money by selling my old cards. I'll have a MSI 970 ME that's being replaced. Hell, I still have my old HIS 7950 that that replaced in a box somewhere. amazon seller is pretty nice except you're more or less obligated to accept returns for random reasons. Also potentially higher rates.

I gave up waiting and picked up a weird water cooled all-in-one 980ti on ebay for 400. Are these hybrid cooler solutions any good and anything to watch out for them? I've only read they keep cool and are quieter which is nice.

i didn't consider the different noise signature, that'll be interesting to see... My sensitivity to GPU sound is because I've had 2 bum video cards, an ati 5950 and this current nvidia 470 (i think both stock or some random embarrassing gamer named version) that sound like jet engines when running even slightly intensive games, so I always liked looking at noise benchmarks and was going for the strix this time before giving up.

where did he get the $200+ cost saving from last I saw 2x 480 8gb is $500 vs $650 for a 1080 assuming you never find one for 600 also the min fps even at 4k is pretty bad for some of those games

Is there something that can force a game to run at 60fps? I have the 144hz monitor but this game is timed to the framerate so it plays at like 2.5x speed. I know I can set windows to 60fps but is there some hidden function in the nvidia control panel to limit framerate at the application level?

VorpalFish posted:Again, not the temperature it's the noise. 10C lower means you can trade that headroom in for slower spinning fans. Yep, the 3080 FE is loud at 100%. You could limit the fan speed curve to 85% instead of 100% and do an undervolt. It's only at top speed, the fan makes a ridiculous BURRR JET ENGINE sound. It'll be thermally limited and run at 1850Mhz avg instead of 1900Mhz ish Or if you really care about fan noise, get a custom loop and 720mm worth of radiator for sweet sweet silence.

The PSU can become the nosiest part of your machine. I had an EVGA 750W G3 and at max power, its fan noise overwhelmed everything else.

BurritoJustice posted:Has anyone seen a measurable performance difference when overclocked with the 2x8pin cards like the TUF versus 3x8pin like the Strix? I know you can easily hit the 375w theoretical draw really easily, but I don't know how much you get for the extra power limit. I have the 3080 FE on a water block maxed out at 370w. If I could increase it to 450w like a Strix, it should stabilize at above 2000Mhz core. This thing draws so much power that if you run anything that's also memory intensive, the memory power draw will limit the amount of power going to the chip, reducing the effective core frequency. On my card, it can do 2100Mhz with memory-low games like Crusader Kings 3 or hover around 1900-1950 in heavy benchmarks like Port Royale. Is that extra 5% core speed worth it for an extra $150 and 80w? meh. edit: Testing it more, I think it's not memory but core utilization. 370w is just not enough power for all the cores to run calculations at 2000Mhz at 975mV (insert your silicon lottery voltage here) MeruFM fucked around with this message at 05:29 on Oct 29, 2020 |

I think it'd be pretty disingenuous for reviewers to turn on DLSS for benchmarks, at least until AMD's implementation becomes available. That being said, lots of whataboutisms like rage mode, zen3 memory access, RT, etc will make even 3rd party reviews have lots of caveats.

VorpalFish posted:While I agree that from a pure performance perspective AMD has for sure exceeded expectations (pending independent review verification) this generation, they've been making the socs for both sony and MS since 2013 and as far as I can tell, there hasn't been tangible benefit to their pc gpu offerings. End of the day, DirectX is king, and there's only so many game engines. Graphic APIs and software level math have matured (not counting rt) that both edit: ati lmfao

repiv posted:https://videocardz.com/newz/alleged-amd-radeon-rx-6800-time-spy-and-tomb-raider-with-dxr-performance-leaks-out Those numbers seem about right. 6800XT is even-ish with the 3080 without some tech for $50 less. It probably isn't worth it unless you pair it with Zen 3 for the unified goodies. It's weird that it's doing worse at 4k. I thought the extra memory should make it better.

hobbesmaster posted:I never understand why they call it “premium gaming machine” when its usually pegged at “absolute max possible without exotic cooling” premium probably also assumes they're running a custom loop. the last few pages gave me nostalgic feelings of the good/bad old days of quake 2 rendering. It's good to see nerds are as passionate as ever about these kinds of things. edit: and I want to pitch in. I had serious issues with some AMD shader issues back in the Radeon HD 4000 era.

spunkshui posted:I was very close to buying it myself. Steve from gamers nexus like it and didn't really like my 500D case much but when I read reviews from people who actually put entire systems in both I kept noticing people saying the lian li case was loud and the 500D wasn't. Like I said, it's designed for custom loops. You put low RPM fans on top of a radiator. It's a nice looking case that lets you put in up to 3 big radiators. And Steve does do noise tests? I think the O11 did not do well.

yeah those benches are dumb, they could have forced resolution. performance wise, it seems about as good as a gtx 1650 which is great for an iGPU but also not blowing me away That being said, for the amount of power it consumes, and considering how easy it is for GPUs to scale, the theoretical capabilities are amazing and i'm just sad apple will never cater to Gamers™

D-Pad posted:Yeah absolutely more space is better but the way the quest deals with smaller spaces or even no space with the way you can dynamically set the boundary size is great. I only have access to a room space sometimes and the rest of the time have about 2 ft in any direction and it still is a ton of fun. And all without having to move sensors around or deal with any wires. The biggest issue with oculus is its close association with facebook that many people would not touch with a 10 foot pole. Doubly so nerds who are into VR.
