The GTX Titan X owners thread.

heaven bench looks great, valley looks poor but this may well be vram speed limitations (bad) or just simply a driver tweak (good) anyway, can someone run the sniper elite 3 bench pretty please with sugar on top? I know that it's a memory bandwidth hog and it will show up whether there is indeed a bandwidth limitation which pulls the TX perf back in.
 
So now you guys/gals have had a chance to put these through their paces is now the time to jump on the 4k bandwagon with two TX’s? With the view that I don’t want to buy any more GPU’s for 18 to 24 months after this.

I’m looking specifically at this 4k monitor as the acer g-sync one does not appeal;

Or would it be best to go safe with a Swift, even though two cards may be overkill for 1440p now I can be confident they will still demolish at stuff in 2016(and probably 2017 as consoles will limit how far companies will push things).

Current system is a Hero VI z87 & 4790k @ 4.7ghz, 16gb ‘Vengeance Pro’ @ 1866mhz, couple of SSD’s and a EVGA 1000w 80+ platinum PSU.

The monitor and TX’s will be replacing a 780 and a benq 1080p @ 144hz, both have served me well but I don’t play that seriously any more so a smooth, good-looking, and immerse experience is now preferable to maximum fps and response time.

I'm leaning towards the swift for g-sync and the knowledge that should a game have poor SLI support I will still be able to run 1 card and not have to turn much (if anything) down, but the draw of playing games like Witcher3, Arma3, and Total War on a 32” 4k panel is very tempting.

Either way will be putting an order in for a TX this weekend so I get it just in time for my birthday! it just depends on what else comes with it.
 
I think go for the 1440p Gsync as you are accustomed to high refresh rates. 2x Titan Xs @ 1440p should do you good for more than 2 years imo.

If your looking for 4K @ 60Hz also checkout the Asus PB287Q it has a 1ms refresh rate (but only 157PPI vs the 185PPI of the Benq) Also its a 28incher not 32 inch.

The Acer 4K Gsync looks interesting but personally I don't like Acer.

Indeed, I've never owned an Acer monitor before but after recent reports and the issues a friend had a year ago with them I won't be going with that, which is a shame.

With my Asus 4K if running over 60 FPS I don't think the experience is inferior vs Gsync other than screen tearing on a few games with Vsync off.
