You gone gigabyte again Neil?
Nope KFA2 980 GTX SOC, I wanted to go Gigabyte but we are talking a lot more expensive for the same G1 model. The Windforce doesn't have the backplate and I remember the previous card 970 Palit flexing without one
What kinda temp you getting on that soc at max clocks Neil? Just got mine and even at stock mine is hitting 81 degrees load 0_0
Would the stuttering issue be solved with Gsync? I'm guessing not...
Sorry I'm bumping this to the top but it'd be really nice to get a response. It appears it is not possible to PM Loki.
Stuttering due to SLI yes. Stuttering due to reaching the limit of VRAM no.
I made the same move as Neil and am over the moon with my SOC 980. No stuttering, pretty much the same temps, solid card and currently the third quickest single card in the Firestrike and Firestrike Extreme benchmarks with my 4690k.
Am I happy to give Nvidia more money? No of course not but this was my only option really and I'm more than happy with the results/performance.
result!
Asus were fobbing me off trying to return my strix's, had to mention trading standards and false advertising and they instantly gave me a return number to take to my localr etailer for full refund, \o/
And as per usual Gibbo's timing is impeccable,
3x of the 8gb sapphire 290x's on offer methinks+ blocks will do nicely
None but that's what I have read on this forum
Which blocks are you going to use?
yet to sort that, im hoping the Ek ones for the 8gb vapor-x's fit
we shall see
Woo replacements for 970 sli arrived. These cards are so damn sexy!
