Caporegime
Finaly finished testing my SLI titans in 2D and 3D in surround (5760x1080) I used a stable overclock of +140 on the core and +200 on the memory for all the 3D tests but not tested with an overclock on 2D surround testsing. I will be doing more testing and will do overclocked tests as well for 2D as well as 1080P single Titan testing.
Here is the 3D surround results. All settings were ultra and I let the application turn down AA (some games don't allow AA or a max of x2).
All the games felt smooth except for FarCry 3. This was a stuttering mess and I feel newer drivers should/could cure this. All the other games ran very smooth and felt very good. Bulletstorm was a strange one because I turned off V-Sync but it still remained at 60 but I left it like that because it is a game that looks very good in 3D (I used flawless widescreen for this game). I wa surprised how good Tomb Raider looked in 3D and especially a certain element of Lara croft stood out (anyone who plays Tomb Raider in 3D will know what I mean). Gorgeous looking game in 3D regardless of the extra benefits.
Here is the 2D surround results but remember there is no overclocks on the GPU's. That will come with my next tests.
As you can see, Crysis 3 was the toughest and it never felt smooth. Again FarCry 3 was the worst and was still a stuttering mess.
And this is how it compares to my old SLI 680 results.
As for the price of £1660 for 2 Titans and do I think it was worth it.... I have to say no. The increase in performance is sweet and it now allows me to play all games maxed out but for the massive extra cost, it just isn't warranted. If the price was £1200 or even £1400, I would have said "Worth it" but it is a lot of money to pay out for all the bells and whistles. I wouldn't send them back though, so I am contradicting myself but I do wish they were a little cheaper.
Edit:
1080P single card results:
Here is the overclocked Titan results at 5760 x 1080 with an OC of +130 Core/+200 Memory
Some very nice fps boost over stock Titans.
