Do I Buy a GTX 780ti Classified

systemerror · 28 Mar 2014 at 19:52

Hi all,

The normal dilemma. I have sold my Evga GTX 780ti. No do I buy the 780ti classified just seems best benching is done with the Asus dc2 which is £60 cheaper.

But the recent service I had with Evga was fantastic which is making me want to stick with Evga GPU's

Agreed and Mr Error knows the score

I think he is looking for a reason to hit the bench threads and the Classy is the card to do it

Volt and bios modded gk110 can draw some serious current, and I think the 1200w is only £20-30 more then the 1kw version atm

Will be adding another one shortly, just going away this month so don't want to over spend till I get back

triss · 28 Mar 2014 at 20:34

Larger PSU allows for another when he can afford/wants it later, a wise investment imo

Geeman1979 · 28 Mar 2014 at 20:36

Would be interested to know what wattage a pair of 780 Classys are pulling at full tilt.

Kaapstad · 28 Mar 2014 at 20:37

A bigger PSU than you need when benching is a good investment.

Wonder how long it will be before the monsoon hard line will take to be available

What is the monsoon hard line ?

Silent_Scone · 28 Mar 2014 at 20:59

I believe you need to hot wire the ASUS to get over 1.212v. You don't with the Classified.

Not really applicable for here but it's the acrylic stuff made by Monsoon for watercooling it's what I want to use in this build.

thefogo · 28 Mar 2014 at 21:27

I have the dc2 and can't get stable above 1200Mhz. Silicon lottery.

Silent_Scone · 28 Mar 2014 at 21:47

That's poor.

With an overclocked 4930 as well he'll need it, huge power draw on the Ti classy's above 1.35v
