PS4 runs the cores at I believe 1.6ghz so although there is 8 they run quite slow. I would have thought a decent quad running at over 4ghz would offer as much if not more performance but I could be wrong.

It depends how the Cores are utilised, 8 simultaneous processes should be faster than sharing cores.

The Titans remind me of the GTX 690s, they are powerful but do it in a subtle way. Before the Titans I had a pair of HD 7970s in the machine, they were hot noisy and not as smooth by comparison.

I think I understand you there, I find my single Titan much more solid than a 680 in the way it's not flapped by sudden load changes, unlike the 680 that just appeared to perform much better than it could consistently sustain.
 
Anyone tried ARMA 3 on their TITAN? Would be interested to see how it runs. My 680 does pretty well with everything maxed 1080p 8xAA Post Processing off (causes blur)

I was reffering to the rise of truly multi-threaded games. Devs will be forced to get out of the 4 core x86 rut that we have been in for a while and look at x86 6/8C usage. Games will rely less on per cycle performance of a dual cpu and look at scaling again.

Is it a coincidence that Crysis 3 runs significantly better on 6 cores than 4? I think not, it is ready to go straight onto the next gen consoles and we will see more of this once the PS4/Xbox 720 get released.

I will give it a run if someone has a spare invite ;)

I'll have one for you Greg but not till the 14th I think it is. It will only let you test singleplayer though and it's the multiplayer performance where it really hits hard. Stunning game maxed out though:

Thanks men. I would love to give it a try on single player. I bought Arma2 and have never been so disappointed with a game that promised so much.
 
Got my Titan today along with a Samsung P27B970. Battlefield 3 runs on Ultra at a constant 60fpswith Vsync on. Crysis 3 runs on Ultra with 1x SMAA (Don't feel like I need more) at 55-65fps.

Hoping to try Arma 3 this evening. When I get my invites I'll hand them out on the Arma thread.

Looks a sweet monitor. How does it cope in fast action games like BF3?

I was put off quite early on with the IPS panels. Lots of light bleed and slow response times didn't make them a viable choice for me but seeing how they have come on, good to hear :)

It's PLS display, which is why I think it has such a decent response time. The fastest IPS I've seen has been 8ms.

£900 isn't really that much if you earn say a modest salary of > £30,000 a year, without any dependents and a wife who works as well.

Especially if you've been financially prudent over a period of time... it means you're likely to have substantial savings. It's all relative.

Comments like that above are just a bit.... daft.... really.

It's still £900 to play games that don't exist yet.

We're still being pillaged by console ports.

Already made my thoughts clear on it in another thread, but today I very nearly bought one. (For the second time)

Then I looked over my games library and asked myself again... Why?

This card is ahead of it's time and ahead of what Intel, plus games are doing right now.

This is a very strange move on nVidia's part. Might give indication of their thoughts on SLI here on too. They can't enjoy the extra man hours on driver optimization for it and constant agro with devs.
