How well did Titan X Pascal overclock on water? Wondering what sort of results we can expect.
Well rather worringly I've just checked the order status of my ti on the Digital River website & it says order number not found 
I've dropped them a webnote asking them to check & confirm if its just a site error as the money has already gone out of my paypal account.

Yeah sounds good mate, doubt you would loose anything either.
You could get a FE then slap a hybrid cooler on it once they get released?
I know there was the odd EVGA reference SC (twin fan cooler) on eBay shortly after the 1080 launch for £25. Might be something like that this time around for the folk watercooling who don't want their coolers.
Soldato
Average around 2-2.1ghz. Ti will do the same if not more.
Suspect exactly the same unless they remove the voltage cap. Even then, its much more about thermals than voltage with pascal. Every 10C rise in temps costs you 14Hz of boost. Keep the card below 30C and you have the max boost for your card and the boost at 90C would be 100Hz lower.

I was actually expecting a tiny bit more from the 1080 Ti.
With the clocks used I was expecting the Ti to win every single bench by a tiny margin.
Looks like the err new FE cooler is not as good as NVidia are claiming and is holding the card back a fraction, nothing waterblocks won't cure.
According the temperature graph the stock 1080 Ti is producing more heat than the Titan.
Soldato
Yeah true. Depends if these later cards are of better chip quality too?
I know the Ti has a more beefed up pcb so hopefully that will help it along too. Even if it just lets it hold its clocks better at max power.
what brand you after Greebo? if I do make an order ill be going MSI first call then EVGA but if any are over 729 ill just wait for Nvidia I cba for the price gouging it gets too silly when you have to buy a block etc
Read my sig, I jumped into the Titan 7 months ago
Not worth a sideways move for me. Ill get a Titan Volta next and miss out the Pascal refreshes this year.

I do need to fix my watercooling now. I have the blocks, need to get a pump/reservoir combo, and a shiny new rad. Looking forward to the reviews coming out. I'm slightly worried that EVGA FE won't be available tomorrow, so probably more waiting
Soldato
Depends if these figures are to be trusted or not. We will find out later on today with other reviews.
The Ti looks to be a couple degrees cooler than the TXP but I wasn't expecting a great deal as it is still a reference cooler and a big chip card.
To be fair those figures are exactly what I would expect looking at the specs between the two on paper. Not sure what people were expecting? 105-20% faster than a Titan????

I'm a little worried too but I can wait a little extra if required. Gibbo said they have hundreds coming in next week so I'd like to get my order in as quickly as possible.
If your worried about warranty, non of the FE cards come with screw stickers. I know EVGA has good warranty but so does gigabyte too and it looks like they have plenty of those tomorrow.

I have a feeling only ones for £699 will be from Palit and the ''OCUK value'' dam it makes you feel poor even after spending £700 lol

ops sorry did not see your Titan X pascal haha
29c though dam nice haha
Soldato
Not worried about the cost. More worried as I want it now! Haha.
About warranty: Only going EVGA as I know their warranty regarding watercooling and stock cooler removal is good

EVGA has the big advantage of a transferable long warranty and actually allows waterblock fitting officially in their terms. If I was getting an FE and waterblock I would go EVGA every day.
Plus if a faster 2080 comes out in May you can use their step up program

I would agree. On specs it's pretty much a Titan with slightly faster clocks and faster memory/more bandwidth. It's not going to be hugely faster.
The big one is it IS faster considering previous Ti's and the cost vs TXP in the first place.
Man of Honour
You are looking at the wrong figures, the only thing the 1080 Ti is cooler in is Furmark which does not count.
The different is tiny but after all the publicity about the 1080 Ti having an improved cooler I was expecting better.

A stupid amount of overkill radiators gives me that. From memory there is a Nemesis 420 GTX, mayhems 360, nemesis 280 and a 240 in my case somewhere. All with varder ER 140 and 120mm fans the big rads are on push/pull as well 18 fans in total all system controlled. If i let the fans ramp up I can keep it below 30 in gaming. In general though I dont like the noise and have it set to hold it at 40C. Useful for benching though.
