50 is twice the value of 25. So it's 100% more than 25.

37.5 is 50% more.

ahh i think i get it now. I hate maths sometimes and i always get confused. I would like to thank you all for teaching me percentages better than my maths teach ever did haha.

I currently have this psu in my system https://www.overclockers.co.uk/supe...0-plus-gold-power-supply-black-ca-004-sf.html

My specs are 4690k @4.6, 16gb Ram, 2 SSD's, 1 HDD and a few things plugged in via USB. Do you think it'll be ok on this card or more specifically one of the aftermarket cards when they come out ?

It'll be fine, doubt you use more than 400w at full load

I have an i7 7700k 5ghz oc cpu, hopefully a 1080ti on Saturday. An SSD and 32gb Corsair LPX Vengeance DDR4 2666 ram.
Now would upgrading my ram to say, 3600 or something, give me any performance increase anywhere, or would it be a total waste of money considering the rest of the system?

2666mhz is pretty low but you might not see much improvement even with faster mem

 

[Jasonst888]

my understanding is that with an i7 7700k for gaming your low ram speed will make no difference. Only matters on much lower end chips like i3's.

 

[Tommy_Here]

for the percentages I just divide the faster card by the slower card
1080 Ti 55 fps
980 Ti 32 fps
55/32=71% faster

Don't forget 83% more memory which will avoid texture swapping.

That's wrong.

55/32 = 1.71

If the faster card was 100fps and the slower card was 50fps then we know it's 100% faster, but 100/50=2 so your formula doesn't make sense.

Yeah as above it would be a bit of a waste, you might see 1fps? possibly nothing at all.

Faster memory only really makes a difference with lower end cpu's with built in gpu's like APU's etc.

Im sure in honesty you could downclock to 2000mhz and see if there is much difference in gaming? Or even try OC the RAM a little?

 

[Greebo]

Yea looks impressive man. And i can only assume as with more driver updates things will only get better

What I meant was that any site reviewing the 1080ti with the new drivers and not rerunning the benchmarks on the Titan, 1080,980ti is going to show a 33% performance gain in ROTR and 16% or more in other dx12 titles. Hence the 1080ti is going to look faster than it really is

 

[Griffildur]

I can't wait to see reviews coming from people here who actually own this new shiny ...

 

[Wucked]

I'm going to wait for partner cards.

The correct formula is ((new card/old card) - 1) * 100

But if you are maths literate, you can understand the percentage increase by simply dividing new card by old card.

He is right. 1.71 means that 1080ti is 71% faster than 980ti.

Tempting tempting lol.

4K 60fps nearly 2of these bad boys will do 4K won't they?.

A lot of reviewers were using the beta drivers rather than todays released DX12 ones. I'm also pretty sure they would have re-run any tests if they were running the new DX12 driver.

This video shows how ram speed can effect certain games a fair bit.

Yea i know haha. But i meant you can see the gains the driver update has done from the benches. Looks impressive how much things have improved. Yea 1070/80 and titan would be closer not sure so much for the 980Ti with it being maxwell.
