The GTX Titan X owners thread.

trawetSluaP · 24 Jun 2015 at 13:14

Have my Hybrid Cooler installed now and it seems a bit loud to be honest. I think both the pump and fan are running at full regardless of load...

Also is there a best way to install these? I have the rad/fan at the front of my case with the pipes at the bottom.

Titan X still the GOAT

Did you expect anything less?

I lol every time when a new card comes along.

The Ti = "oooooo this will beat the TX and all the TX owners will be crying", it didn't.
The FuryX = "oooooo this will beat the TX and be half the price all the TX owners will be crying", it didn't.

We're not crying, we'd paid top price of the best card on the market.

my friend think i am crazy picked TX last week but i just want the best

Just watching a review of the hybrid cooler and he said when you use precision to adjust fan speed it adjusts the fan on the gpu as well as the hybrid fan? Is this always the case or can you leave the ref cooler completely off?

Just skimmed through OC3D's review of the Fury X, Titan X beats it flat out in quite a few things.

Ive never seen a launch day go so flat :eek:

Pages and pages of very disappointed people and confirmation that they held those benches back for good reason

The ref cooler should be always on because it cools the PCB and VRMs.

It uses a pass through cable to supply the fan on the rad. So they're basically connected to the same source (on the card). Can't see any reason that you couldn't power the external fan from your mobo though. It has a join in it anyway.

So its louder than a reference card as its got extra fans now? Sorry if that sounds naive.

You Overclocked it yet? Also what's it sound like at 100% fan speed?

No. Still on the default SC clocks. I'll have a play with it on Friday as I'm working away till then. (Might have a go tonight depending when I get home)

As it is at the minute. It's considerably quieter than stock and sits at 48 degrees. It doesn't get anywhere near 100% fan speed.

Ayahuasca · 24 Jun 2015 at 16:18

I'd plug the rad fan into a different connector if possible and just set the fan on the card to the minimum amount.

Makes sense.cheers bud. I was a bit concerned that as it ramps up the hybrid cooler it would ramp up the ref cooler as well making it noisy as all hell

shankly1985 · 24 Jun 2015 at 16:24

If the fan is like other gentle typhoon, it will be very quiet even on full speed.

DavidS14 · 24 Jun 2015 at 16:29

So after all the weeks waiting, being tempted by the Ti and being seduced by the spec of the Fury I'm finally back to where I began and planning TriSli Titan X

Going to be a few weeks as I'm working but have a couple of weeks off planned in which I can get them and then integrate into the cooling loop

No. More fans does not = more noise.

What I meant was if you increase the hybrid to,say,50% and that also increases the ref cooler to 50% then that would be more noise but it dosnt seem to work like that

I put the clocks up to 1236/1324 on the GPU and the Ram to 1903.
Ran the Heaven benchmark using the settings on the Heaven thread.
Max temp was 49 degrees.

Was the ref cooler audible at all? Curious to know how fast it will go

ChrisD. · 25 Jun 2015 at 08:12

Finally got my new EK bits, loop testing last night:

Shows 16/16 now, surprising that!

Also, got a new pump/res which is much much quieter. Shame I'm getting less and less time to game on the thing.

No. Couldn't hear anything but the case fans.
Looking at the default fan profile for 49 degrees, the fan is probably running at about 40% speed.
