** THE FIRST MODDED GTX TITAN: GIGABYTE WINDFORCE 3X OC!! **

[Gibbo]

Hi there


Gigabyte are bending the rules slightly with NVIDIA by not only offering an Overclocked Titan but one with a superior cooling solution as well. NVIDIA will not allow any modification to the Titan, hence why you only see Titans with stock NVIDIA cooler.

So Gigabyte are getting round this by shipping with their Titan the WindForce 3X cooler, the catch is you do have to fit it yourself, but they do provide instructions of course.

Anyway check it out here:-

Its costly.

Seriously, is there any reason for someone to buy this over a 780?

Purely on price-performance, I don't see the point.

 

[implosiveturnip]

epeen.

 

[shadow_boxer]

Nice idea but price just doesn't make sense. Might as well grab a 780 for almost half the price.

 

[jonnyp1993]

Damn that's pricey :/

 

[waso_dude]

Does swapping the cooler not remove your warranty?

There isn't mate, the EVGA Classified is exactly the same in terms of performance if not better in some benchmarks:

This cooler should allow you to run the Titan at higher clockspeeds for longer, so with another 100mhz or even 150 maybe, the Titan will put the 780 back in its box.

Will they be selling these coolers separately or do you have to buy a Titan with them?

Thing is though anyone running a titan is probably running a decent custom loop so why would anyone spend an extra 160 quid over the msi titan when they could drop a block on for nearly half the price
