Hi again,
I have another question related to the standard edition Titan.

Will voltage control be unlocked?
It appears board partners can lock this option out. I know you have other editions in the works so it would be good to get clarification on this.

Many thanks

Hi,

we do not lock it and it will be possible to raise the voltage 40mv with the Precision Tool

yes please - tempted with a EVGA 680

the Signature edition - not the Signature 2.

is the standard Signature edition -linked below 5 phases of power, and 2 x8 pin power, like the Signature 2 ?

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-183-EA&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=2255

also whats the difference between the SC and the FTW - same clocks -just FTW seems 0.5 inches longer ?

thanks-just finding the models confusing

Hi,

the Signature is a 5 phase card and do have a 8+6 pin power connection. The FTW card is a EVGA own design card with 11 power phases while the SC is a Ref design card.

Is the EVGA Titan coming with a backplate? If not are you gonna sell the backplate separately for the reference card? Or any make of the titan. OC version, Signature edition ?

Thanks

Hi,

we will produce a backplate for the Titan, this is going to be available arround middle of march seperatly. The only model that will have the backplate installed by default is the watercooled version.
 
Hello

Do the EVGA gtx 680 backplates fit all reference gtx 680's? I have 2 x MSI gtx 680's (reference) and wanted to add these.

cheers
 
I recently bought a GTX 670 FTW. Loving it. Great performance, etc. However, it's very noisy, compared to my other components. I literally can't hear my PC when it's on, even with no other noises. However, the GPU is very loud under load.
I understand that the fans need to spin up more, but it is pretty darn loud.
Could anyone recommend another cooler solution? I've looked at water-cooling, but I've never used it before, and I really don't want to spend more than ~£80 (Ideally max £60). Would another (air) cooler help much? Note that my GPU only lets me spin the fans 30-80%, anything below 30% sets it to 30% and another above 80% sets it to 80%. My temperates are fine; roughly 68ºC under full load. Note that I do not have the SIG 2, only the original FTW.
Also, just to clarify. Installing a custom cooling solution does not void my warranty? Reading the warranty seems to show that as long as it's sent back with the original cooler on it, it's all good.
Thanks for any help!

Hi,

Yes, you are right, removing the cooler do not void the warranty but for RMA you have to send the card in originally condition. We do also allow to change the TIM on the GPU, if you use high end one this can also help to lower the temps by a couple of degree. With the Precision Tool you can set up a custom fancurve, if you increase the fanspeed earlier then the auto settings you can normally keep the endspeed a little lower while having the same temps. All together it can help to lower the noise. In our Forums people recommend the Twin Turbo II http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=1522057&high=twin+turbo

Thanks for the info! I think I'll order the Twin Turbo II then, and I have some thermal paste lying around, so I'll see if that could do any better :)
I have the precision tool, but setting the fan curve below or above 30 and 80 respectively does not do anything. I think the restrictions are on a BIOS level?

Hi,

if you go for a cooler like this you also need to take a look that the airflow in your case is good because cooler like this do spread the hot air in the case and if the airflow is not good it can occur hot spots in your system.
Yes, the fanprofile is logged to this specs, what I ment is setting up a fancurve. With this you can tell the card exactly how fast it should spin at how many degree. On auto settings the fan start to increase pretty late, if you set that the fan should start to increase erlier then with the auto settings it can help that the card will not get as hot as it do on auto settings. For example. If you have with auto settings 68 degree with 65% fanspeed you can maybe get it with a customized fanprofile running 68 degree at 62% final speed.

I have my fan curve set so that below 40º the fans don't come on at all (just to test). My GPU is at idle at 38º but the fans are at 30%. Checking/unchecking the "auto" box in the fan speed area doesn't make the fans turn off. There's a dotted yellow line in the fan curve which seems to indicate the max/min speeds.
Am I doing something wrong? Dropping to 20% would be nice, as would 100% if it's getting a little too hot! :)
 
Hi, unfortunately it is not possible to go below 30% and over 80%. To make sure there are no missunderstanding you can email me your phone number to [email protected] then I will give you a call tomorrow to go trough this settings to make sure we are talking about the same stuff :)
