Much its a waste of £900 could have bought a pci ssd for that price
Noice build though mate

Nice, but it makes me cringe looking at this system due to everything being upside down! Still, ready to do some serious benchmarking?

It's not the nicest colour but I have found it done not discolour at all. I like the red mayhems do but in next to no time it turns pink.

Have you not thought about red tubing ?

You've already made that point. No need to make it again...

Turn it upside down and change the fan inserts to the red ones and you're on to a winner

I think this build will be awesome for The Sims

I have already got a couple of RevoDrives, very very fast in use but a bit slow booting.

It's one of the things I will think about in the next few weeks.

4 Titans = Epic, is one PSU enough for them though or do you have another tucked away some where?

Biffa · 24 Mar 2013 at 17:43

They actually don't pull that much power, not much more that 4 GTX470's

4 x 263W = 1052W and thats peak under furmark, only for the cards mind, but the rest of his system isn't going to be pushing more than a couple of hundred watts at most. Plus hes probably not peaking the cards unless he is running Furmark Benchies.

How much have you spent in total?

He robbed the OC warehouse.

Just the one PSU

I have seen a couple of guys in America running 4 Titans on a 1200w corsair and then wondering why performance was down.

The other week I measured at the wall what 3 Titans and an oced hexcore were using and it was around 1100watts. So 1500watts for 4 Titans should be plenty.

The max TDP of 300W will bump it up if he gets all 4 GPU's running at 99% and with the 3930K/fans/pump/SSD, I expect 1400W to be doable.

Kapp could you run 3d mark Extreme and heaven and post the scores please.
I would very much appreciate it as i would like to dip my toe into the whole Titan scene

Great build log by the way.

Thanks

With 3dmark Extreme and the standard version, any more than two cards and you get negative scaling. This is a bug with the benchmark and it is the same for AMD and NVidia.

The Heaven score above is using the Extreme settings.
