Does anyone here with 3-4 Titan X's know what their power usage is? What PSU's are you using? Especially Kaap.

Do these actually look accurate?
I want to add a 3rd 980Ti, but not sure if my EVGA 1000W G2 can handle it. On the EVGA forums they're stating you need at least a 1500W PSU or you'll blow your system under load :/

That's a ******** Monster Kaap! UGH! Really not helping me want a 3rd 980Ti now.

That power draw though, bloody hell! You might need 3-phase power installed in the house if you get some Quad AMD cards next :p

So Firestrike Ultra. Hmm, 1220 isn't bad at all for them.

I think I'd be fine with a EVGA 1200W Platinum rated PSU for 3 Superclocked 980Ti's then and my CPU at 4.3Ghz. Or would the 1300W be better just in case?

250w for each 980ti , so 750w and the rest for the system.

1200W should be ok but I would still get a 1300W PSU as it will run more efficient and probably a bit cooler as it won't be flat out.

You should save a bit of power usage on your CPU as well as it won't use as much as an 8 core 5960X.

Alrighty. Kinda gutted I didn't go for the 1300W when I built the system in February. Then again since the 980 was so power efficient I didn't think the Titans would be so much more powerful.

The EVGA 1300W does well for Ole JonnyGuru. Pity they don't make a 1300W Platinum PSU.

Ok Kaap I removed the videos that had audio stutter in them, Turns out it was Shadowplay, Guess I have to wait a while before using it again and until Nvidia update it.

The videos with audio stutter were -

  • Alien Isolation
  • Aliens vs Predator *I removed this completely as at 4K the audio was badly out of sync using any recording software*
  • Batman Arkham Origins
  • Mafia 2
  • Sleeping Dogs
  • Thief
  • Tomb Raider
  • Unigine Valley
  • World In Conflict

I ended up using Action Mirillis, Pretty good piece of software, No intermittent audio stutter, Good quality and the performance hit isn't bad either.

All games were ran at 4K with max settings minus AA and all were capped to 30FPS, Didn't make sense to have it any high considering YouTube doesn't support 4K 60FPS just yet.

Driver: 353.12
CPU: 4790K @ 4.80GHZ
GPU: Titan X @ 1400/8000
