as regards noise, mine throttles back at 70 degrees to about 68 degrees and stays there.... i leave mine on 60% fan speed

i dont know why it throttles back at 70 degrees, but i think it's because it's reached the 110% power limit first...........but with the fan not working, it's reaching max temp really fast.............about 30 seconds into Heaven.

Nice case. In all honesty, it makes my HAFX look small. :eek:

Almost ready

nice case, if i get another case i'll probably go for the D-Frame

In the process of fitting my water blocks, quick observation, two of the three cards have almost no TIM on the core and were running a good 10c hotter than the best card which had a nice, what I would call normal layer.

Anyone who is sticking with air may want to reapply with some good stuff if they think their temps are a bit high.

Aye, it's a big lump - this is it next to my old Enthoo

I think my next case will have to be bigger. Something like that appeals to me.

yea if i see that i'll send the new cooler back to OCUK without opening it, because i wouldn't mind better there's a problem there, i want to take a close look at the stock fan too.

dropping the temp by 10 degrees is quite a lot :cool:

60% on the titan X is mentally loud, on stock profile it gets nowhere near

Firefox35 · 10 Apr 2015 at 20:25

what does everyone have theirs overclocked at?

I have +200 core and +500 mem

On a side note love being back on team green, my time with the R295 X2 was a very very frustrating one and not one I wish to repeat, I don't care how good the 390X is if it ever appears, Never again!

(still think we are all slightly insane spending £900 on a graphics card lol)

Ayahuasca · 10 Apr 2015 at 20:35

Mine's at 1432mhz core for gaming and I'm just about to test it higher (been upping it 10mhz every day), memory at stock, those memory chips on the back get very hot and I don't want to risk running the memory at 2000mhz and blowing them whilst I'm on custom BIOS.

Very true, but I spent well over £900 on playing golf last year, and all I do in that is spend 4 hours every Sunday walking around at wet field looking for a stupid little ball in long grass

so maybe not quite so insane as some

Me too, just stuck it at that soon as I got it as most seem to do that.

Yeah, my two bad ones looks like the TIM was applied with the pea method but the paste was hard and GPUs never have high mounting pressure so it didn't spread out well at all!

Drojman · 10 Apr 2015 at 20:52

Got my second installed today:

Sorry for the not brilliant picture.

3440x1440p AC Unity Maxed gets 60fps constant. Happy with that

Orangey · 10 Apr 2015 at 21:04

60fps mins? In Unity @ high res? Maxxed to the maxxx?

Proof perchance?

Drojman · 10 Apr 2015 at 21:14

Everything maxed except AA. 2xAA drops me to 50-55 4xaa to 40.

I'll post proof soon if you really want, haha.

The titan x is not loud at all, it's quieter than my 780 phantom.

My TX was very quiet. Of course it was dead quiet after the fan broke.

Interesting, temps on mine I'm happy with but I might check the paste just to be sure. Are there any stickers on the card that void warranty when removing the cooler?
