NVIDIA GTX 970 OWNERS THREAD

[Captain]

Have you restarted AB?

 

[slade]

Sure ave.... and my pc just to be sure.

 

[AshenEdge]

lol all have mouse pads (( i dont have anyone

Gave my stepdad my mousemat I got with my card, his wrist support one was starting to open and go lop sided. Happy chappy now though.

Happily reading the fellow owners thread then....Bam 'Mouse pad'





I think we're being trolled about the mouse pads I didn't have one with either of mine I can only assume those receiving them are traitors and have purchased from another outlet

Shame on them!!!

I'm still having trouble unlocking the voltage control on my MSI Gaming 970's. I've checked and unchecked the volt control box, restarted MSI AB and my PC a few times but its still greyed out ... any ideas anyone?!

Got my Inno3D 970's under water last night, the lack of fans eating into the TDP bumped my firestrike score by 30 lol, haven't tried any tuning yet as it took me to 3am due to a resonance cascade >.>

 

[JamesM]

Will be interesting to see what you get.

LEAKS!

I have been water cooling since 2003 and never had a leak, because I kept it simple and avoided complication, but in order to get the cards plumbed in without redoing half the loop I had to rely on a brand new Bitspower rotary I had bought for a future build, it failed at the rotation, re-drained and replaced with an XSPC rotary that was also new, it failed the same way, in the end I resorted to an old battered BP matt black rotary compression that I bought of the MM eons ago, it held it's ground

Luckily both cases were just coolant bubbling out of the join not a geyser or anything (plus it was empty case lined with tissue below the leak).

82% ASIC most i went to on core was 1655 but there was no extra benefit from 1600 or 1625 , the gain beyond 1600 for me is minimal with only a few fps gained.

I noticed that adding over 1600 was pointless, tbh I have left the card at stock for gaming. I am getting more than enough FPS in my games currently lol.

I Really want to SLI the MSI 970s but the motherboard front headers are 30mm from the PCI-E slot :/ The cooler seems quite low down on the MSI as well.

Anyone got any tips on how to fit this thing in?

I bought some extra 2pin headers to try and cut away the plastic so it's shorter.

 

[elrasho]

Guys would getting another MSI 970 be bottlenecked by my 1st gen i5 750 at 4.0Ghz?

Hi there

100 of these just in:


Asus GeForce GTX 970 DirectCU II OC Strix 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card @ £299.99 inc VAT

The new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980/970 is powered by the next generation NVIDIA Maxwell Architecture, giving you incredible performance, unmatched power efficiency, and cutting-edge features.

Maxwell is the most advanced GPU architecture ever made, designed to be the engine of next generation gaming. Inspired by light, it was designed to solve some of the most complex lighting and graphics challenges in visual computing. For the first time, gaming GPU's can dynamically render indirect light using the new VXGI (Voxel Global Illumination technology). Scenes are significantly more lifelike as light interacts more realistically in the game environment.

The GTX 980 is the worlds fastest GPU and the GTX 970 offers the most advanced performance in its class. Each delivers 2x the performance of previous-generation card, bringing new gaming experiences to virtual reality, and ultra resolution 4k displays.

Enable the detail of 4k monitors, on a 1080P display. DSR produces smoother images by rendering a game at a high resolution, then downscaling it to the native resolution of the display using advanced filtering.

GeForce GTX 980 and 970 cards support tear-free, super-fast NVIDIA G-Sync monitor display technology including 4k. Together, these technologies provide the most immersive and competitive gaming experiences possible.
