My temps went up to 80c on heaven. I had to up the fan speed a little to keep them down. After that my temps peaked at 67c.

The standard fan setting 30% and the same from Idle - 80c :rolleyes:

Just make a sensible fan profile in PrecisionX and you won't have to worry again.

Temp- %fan speed is a starting point so 60C= 60% fan

I never thought of it that way. I'm still a little new to OCing Nvidia GPU's Thanks jakus

What boost do you get guys when temp at 80 C?
Mine seems to be a bit low 836-849 MHz - is it right?

I never run GFX cards that hot,but at 60-65c you should boost to around 1000mhz, that may be the case below 70c.

Also remember the temp target will slow the card possibly before even ramping the fan.
 
Why are folk worrying their cards are hitting 80? Thats how GPU boost 2.0 is working if you leave it at defaults, it lets the card get to 80 and then as long as the default profile it has set can control it it lets the boost go up, bugs and tdp permitting?
So of course your temps are going to get to 80 if you dont alter the fan profile and the cards have to do enough work to raise it there.
All the posts I'm seeing around of LOL the cards so hot it gets to 80 are just from folk who dont understand how it works in the first place.

Mine sits at a twitching 996-936 in an air starved 800D while still waiting on my block as an idea so something seems a tad out to me there.

Picked out this video to show how an overclocked Titan can beat Crossfire 7970's in 3DMark11. This review is from January 2012 and obviously drivers have improved but I am also pointing out that the Titan has only been out for 2 weeks and we can expect better performance with maturer drivers. When the 7970 was released, it was over £450, so two 7970's = £900 ;)

Pretty good review from Tiny Tom Logan.

Mine does 993 MHz when temps at 77 C so look ok then.

Doubled up.

You have these clocks at 80 C?

I wonder if we will get any aftermarket coolers for Titan.Ia m very tempted
 
Will double check in a bit, but its usually sat around them clocks and isnt in the best of cases for airflow.

As for OEM coolers apparently an accelero one was in the works somewhere wasnt it?
 
can I check whether all the Titans currently out are reference spec so that in the future if I was to get a waterblock I wouldn't run into grief?

I'm thinking of getting the EVGA one.

There wouldn't be any issues with putting that under water later would there?

Yep, all Titans are reference spec and any of the Titan specific waterblocks will fit :)

Stick with EVGA as well for water cooling.
 
Still toying with the idea of selling my 680 at the end of the month and getting a Titan. Really need something that can maximise the benefits of my 144hz monitor.
 
Just ran this @2560 x 1600

Huge improvement in scaling compared to 1920 x 1080
 
racing games and flightsims are the best thing for 3 screen I've found so far (and mechwarrior online which also sees you sitting in a cockpit)

FPS' certainly benefit in giving you peripheral vision, but the sim type games are amazing by comparison

I did have a copy of civ5 kicking about, I'll have to see if I can find it to reinstall it
