GTX:Titan

[Tythus]

Hi guys I'm currently on a GTX295 and am updating and just wanting to make sure that it it would be pretty much uninstall drivers take card out put in the new card then place that one in no issues?
please note I want this over say the GTX 670-680 as I do loads of cuda related apps in 3D etc and this would be very useful.

Just don't forget to enable the 64bit FPUs if you want to use them but yes.

Do more research ....

Another Titan thread !!!!!!

What CPU do you use bud?

Another Titan thread !!!!!!

And?
Should he post in the rumours thread and have the post lost in about a minute?
Should all 7970 questions go in one thread?
Should all GTX680 questions go in one thread?
The card is released now so of course there's gonna be a lot of new threads about it just as there would be with any other new card.

That big wad of cash might be a complete waste if your CPU is no good.

What are you running?

Other than that, yes if your PSU has enough juice which it should since you are already running a highend GPU, just uninstalled drivers, take card out, put new one in.

To me Titan makes so much more sense as a compute card than a graphics card when you compare it to the K20s.

I would actually really like a Titan card purely for compute. I've been thinking about picking up a cheap GTX 480 to have a play with some CUDA apps like Arion.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if loads of them were snapped up quickly for this usage

I'm on my i7 920 @ 4ghz

what my thoughts where too this would be brilliant for CUDA and graphic card based apps.

That I7 with that clock will be great. Great card for compute and to sneak a quick game in

The power usage profile is all kinds of wrong for serous compute. The may have a use in Workstation VR or something, but for modelling / rendering tasks - no thanks. Can't see how you can power or cool a rack full of these.
