The Pascal Titan X and XP Owners Thread

Thank you very much Kaapstad!

Side note - I didn't know Arkham Origins supported SLI, seems it does.

Would you mind running the same test, (single Titan XP) with and without a dedicated Physx card for Wither 3 and Arkham Knight at 4K.

Thank you kindly!!!

Here is Witcher 3, I don't think it uses physics though.

Single stock Pascal Titan + Dedicated Physics card.

Thank you very much indeed.
BTW what CPU and GPU frequencies were you using for that run?

So it seems that if you appoint a dedicated secondary card for Physx in the Nvidia control panel, other Gamesworks effects / features won't use it, only Physx will???

Hmmm....

Something wrong there esp with the division. Every other sli I've seen on that game has shown up to a 50% increase not decrease. Same with the witcher 3 .

Manage to figure it out. PCIE lanes at 2.0 instead of 3.0 in the bios.

Although still not great scaling. Witcher 3 86fps (SLI) Single card it is at 79fps. 60/70 on GPU usage though :(

Off to try a couple more games to be sure. Can always cancel my TX if its near enough fixed.

Noticed in this Pascal Titan SLI review that they had poor performance with 1080 SLI in Witcher 3.

Don't forget the Pascal Titan uses 369.05 drivers.

Witcher 3 SLI has always had issues, especially past 2 cards. The developers even acknowledged this. People that aren't sensitive to microstutter may not notice these things.

Have a look at the review above for it, the Pascal Titans scale in SLI but the 1080s don't.

Probably due to using different drivers.

All sorted now and TXP cancelled unfortunately. Really big help from my good friend killswitch (John) here for spotting what I didn't think would make much difference.

Basically my 1080's firstly, cards were running PCIE gen 2.0. Swapped to PCIE 3.0 on both slots and saw a pretty big improvement. Witcher 3 from 45 (SLI) to 86. Bearing in mind single card was 75ish fps(high settings minus hair works) Still not great.

Didn't think this would do much but it did anyhow. Noticed cards were running 16x/8x. Wifi card was causing the drop to 8x in 2nd slot. Dropped that down to 3rd slot(black lane). Cards running 16x/16x now.

Seeing a big improvement in games. Witcher 3 fully maxed minus aa including hair works 55fps. SLI enabled running a shade under 100fps 3440x1440. All games running like this now!

Really happy now and games running beautifully. Had to disable aa as was giving me micro stutter. Suggested to turn off by John and smooth as butter.

Just to put this in case anyone else if having such issues with 1080's, TXP or other cards. If required to move post, please do so.

Good show. Nothing worse than spending £1200 and not getting the performance you should but thinking its normal.

Get yourself a decent sli bridge and your good to go

Just shows how **** 4 way scaling is even in a synthetic benchmark, a single titan x gets close to 10k.

Yeah two way sli isnt bad at 18k, the fact that adding another two only gives you another 22% is the shocking bit.

I was hoping for almost 30k as a score.
