NVIDIA GTX 970 OWNERS THREAD

[Essexerie]

I am going to buy the 970 G1 very soon and i was wondering if there will be any problems fitting into my haf 912 case?

currently getting 65oc on water full load in furmark on sli anyone else running on water and sli was wondering what yours tops out at after 30 minutes ?

Not on water but running sli 970 G1's in a Corsair 750D & top card hits 70-72c & bottom card 65c.
This is after a couple of hours gaming.

Gonna go for the galax black edition I think. Case can only fit about 280mm in without removing the hdd cage so the g1 or inno ichilli wouldn't fit

The Black editions a good looking card, especially with the backplate.

Hi All,

Can anyone please confirm the PCB size for the Gigabyte G1? Just need to check it will fit in my case with full cover waterblock on it. From what I can tell from pictures, the heatsink and back plate extends a fair way past the PCB.

Cheers

Mines about the same matey to be honest, running a modified BIOS though with some high volts!

Buying parts for a new 4790k build today. Looks like the G1 will fit in a 450d ok?

What speeds you getting with the modified BIOS?

I can't seem to get any more volts/speed with custom BIOS but at least the temps are awesome

Only 1519Mhz, water cooling these cards doesn't give a lot more head room to honest, even modding the BIOS doesn't give you a lot.

Gigabyte G1?

Should be able to get more, many G1 owners get 1500+ on the standard bios let alone the custom (GameStable Bios)

Not been happy with my temperatures on my Palit Jetstream (or rather the fan speed needed to keep it under 80°C), so I've ordered an Accelero Xtreme III for it, that should help I hope

 

[xtremedetailz]

i popped into the showroom and picked up a Galax version as per everyones recommendations.

It fits in my SG05 perfectly and runs on the 450W PSU

Now when i ran a quick test of heaven valley in the window it was showing GPU @1506mhz but after checking GPU-Z log file it was boosting @ 1417mhz.

Still very happy (even with the coil whine)
