HI there


Just tested 970 and 980 again using 344.11 driver, simply wow:-




MSI 970 Gaming @ 1600/8400

Galax 980 @ 1550/8400

Mind blowing performance!!!!

What sort of power are these consuming at the super crazy clocks?

The MSI was about 110W from memory.

Did not check the 980 but won't be much.

Thats ridiculous how well those are scoring!!

So tempted with one of these and one of the x99 m-atx boards...

Edit: double post

Looking at that, would I be right in saying with those drivers SLI 790's clocked up would beat a 295X2? O.O

 

[Clewis09]

Any note of price drops on 780's?

Surely has to be a given seeing as how the 970 offers equivalent performance and brings a new architecture for much less?

 

[WalderX]

WOW nice benches Gibbo.

I shall now be referred to as MR EXCITED until DPD knock on my door tomorrow!

Can't wait to strip down and rebuild my new PC! Nothing better to do on a Saturday IMO -hopefully it rains all day too so I have no excuse to leave the house whatsoever

 

[gerico]

Which 970 are you using gibbo?

From what I am seeing OC'd 970 beats OC'd 780Ti never mind 780 /drool

hmm which is the best bang for buck 970 gtx?

been looking at the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 G1

gibbo you a tenner dearer on these

 

[CivilDrone]

Feel sorry for 780 owners. What a m!ndfcuk from nvidia. Threw spanner in the works. 3bay and MM flooded with 780 and tis already. WOW JUST WOW

 

[Crucio]

Feel like I'm going crazy today, really want to buy a GPU as it is the last piece for my new build. Looking at all the cards I really wanted a EVGA 970 with the new ACX 2.0, but am struggling to find any information anywhere on when, where and how.

Really wanted to order from OCUK for this. Could any light be shed please.

 

[Mark A]

Think a 970 will be getting purchased very soon! Glad I didnt go for a 780 now .

Was hoping to see an Asus 970 available as I want my pc to be as quiet as possible. Which of the 970 lineup would be the quietest?

EDIT: Sorry, should have read the whole thread, I see the MSI is quietest.

Cheers for the reply Gibbo

ACX 2.0 will come in a few weeks from EVGA.

I don't care, I don't see any other competitor testing these and sharing results like us.

Plus NVIDIA just informed me, OcUK has beaten all other etailors sales wise, so most of our customers clearly appreciate the levels of support we give both pre-sales and after-sales.

1: We do, you guys are awesome, great deals and best CS going

2: Did they also inform you how much you could drop the GTX780's by? lol
