All helps
My room sits around 20c, and my computer runs passive till 28c water temps, that takes from cold around half hour. (idle, sitting in windows not playing games etc) My rads have a very high FPI though, also pretty shocking airflow in my case
After 28c they ramp up from 2v-6v (200-900rpm) CPU sits at 60c (100% load) and GPU 48c.
Pretty nice you get a near passive system though
I think the corsair 540 does help to be fair, there's no restriction at all from the front up through the top rad especially with such low density rads
Is yours all set up on a fancy fan controller then or are you just really meticulous about maintaining your temps

Its surprisingly easy too because AMD cards scale ridiculously well in benchmarks like this compared to Nvidia.

If i had a better psu id have beaten it already. As it is its going to take a lot of tweaking see what else i can eek out of my 750W psu.

True. Its under warranty though so id take a chance on it dying so i get a refund to buy a better one.

Greg's been sitting pretty for nearly a year though
Getting a bargain takes time, AMD sure did milk it

Doesnt justify the titans current price though

Titans are more than gaming cards, try not to forget that.
The 780ti is far far cheaper, but is only superior for gaming (and overclocking
)True.

When I had two Titans, they were never under water or volt adjusted
And like I said when the 290X was launched, I happily allow my dinosaur Titan to take a rest. It has been busy for 10 months keeping me happy.
