1920x1200 is a common resolution. That's where I got it from.
There's very little difference between it and 1920x1080.

There is a big difference.
About 10% and that stacks up to a lot of fps.
No it doesn't. 10% in FPS terms isn't much, you have to be hitting high FPS for it to be a meaningful amount, ie 100+, and even then, as you've been so adamant to point out that 1920x1080 bottlenecks GPUs, then how can it be anything but a meaningless amount?
As I said before, dem moving goalposts.

Overclock the CPU to remove the bottleneck @1080p, what is hard about that
As to an extra 10% increase in fps I have known plenty of people upgrade their systems for less.
You have got to let your blind hatred for everything NVidia go.
What?!
What are you on about? Why have you assumed I've been talking about running with a low CPU speed?Oh LAWD.
And you believe that this validates your statement that 10% is a load of performance?
If people are upgrading their computers for sub 10% performances increases, then I would say that they are mugs, seriously.
10FPS + 10% = 11FPS
15FPS + 10% = 16.5FPS
20FPS + 10% = 22FPS
25FPS + 10% = 27.5FPS
30FPS + 10% = 33FPS
40FPS + 10% = 44FPS
50FPS + 10% = 55FPS
60FPS + 10% = 66FPS
On what planet is 10% + FPS a meaningful amount below 100FPS?
Hell, 10FPS isn't even that much of an increase.
10% is never going to mean the difference between playable and unplayable.
You have got to let your blind hatred for everything NVidia go.
You have got to stop changing your argument to suit your points, you've also got to stop talking rubbish.
Oh also, what has my dislike of nVidia got to do with anything, and if you want to claim that it's "blind", then you need to explain why or essentially be quiet.
What?!
Oh LAWD.

I don't think I can add anything more to this lol

Hope you stick to it. Cause reading your posts, it feels like
You clearly don't understand things from technical point of view as good as you think you do. And neither do you understand what the term "good value" stands for.
4 Titans capable of pushing 4K res is one thing, but it's still a "luxury", rather than "good value" as you put it.

I find people like you so ironic, You talk of value yet if you look through your signature at your other components you could have got more value from cheaper components giving near identical performance. Or does this relate to graphics cards and nothing else in life?
That's no what ironic means.
However, pointing out that Kaapstad is using value for money incorrectly when talking about Titans isn't really the same thing now is it?
Explaining what is good value for money means and practising it are to 2 different things.
Wanting to go around Explaining what is good value for no good reason other than one can would then put it into the Ironic category but there is plenty of reasons to be explaining it in this thread, the majority want to get the most for their money so everyone has a right to give an opinion no matter what they practice.
You would hardly ever see me in what should i buy threads to suggest the OP what to buy or how to get the most for their money, at most i would be there in a technical capacity and that hardly arises either.
Which graphics card for my system - 770 v 7970 http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=24651727&postcount=73 I have one post in there and its a technical one and its not even aimed at the OP.
But i have never seen someone claim before that whatever you need to spend to achieve a goal is good value. You need this to drive a 4k display so this is good value, good value is not intrinsically linked to need, the price can sometimes be though depending on many factors.

And I think people who complain about people spending their own hard-earned money (assumption they are not on the dole) on fancy hardware are mugs too. If people want to spend their money, let them. I build super rigs when bored. Yes I could get the same performance at a lower price but I just don't want to.
Oh and nice ability to do mafs!
People who usually make this complaint cannot afford said luxury hardware
People upgrade because they have an itch and like to have shiny stuffThis thread optimises what is wrong with the gcard forum - people with valid but differing opinions always resorting to name calling, whether direct or indirect. Yours was indirect btw. Maybe that's just the internet for you haha
Enjoy your i3 gaming machine with a X800XT haha

Yeah, no. This is a logical fallacy.
I wasn't name calling at all, I pointed out that it's a mug's game spending out money on an upgrade that gives 10% more performance because of how meaningless 10% is.
Captain assumptions over here. Who says I've got an i3 with an X800XT, and what has that got to do with spending out on a 10% performance increase being a mug's game?

Oh look...if it isn't the "poor man go buy cheaper cards and STFU" comment rearing its ugly head again. This is seriously getting old.People who usually make this complaint cannot afford said luxury hardware
"Cannot afford" and "has more than enough money, but refuses to be mugged" are two different things.
People with more money than sense buying overpriced goods it's their choice, but that doesn't mean they can call people who are unwilling to buy an overpriced good "poor".
It's simple logic that whether or not someone can "afford" something is determined by "how much money they have at hand or in bank", not "how big lump of cash and how hard can someone throw at something".

Heh, somebody says ironic and BaDBoY_uK fits the bill. Thats funny. BaDBoY_uK says whats wrong with the graphics card forum and what does BaDBoY_uK do? displays provoking posts in another form of name calling. Yet preaches to others about it.
I'm in shock, total shock....
Sleeping Dogs 4K RES
3xTitans 41fps
3x7950's 34fps
Titan +20%FPS but cost what 400% more!!!!
3xTitans cost Circa £2500+
3x7950's cost Circa £660+
After seeing the 4k comparison on the previous page's why are some Nvidia fan boys saying AMD should hurry up and release the HD8000 series when in high res multiscreen setups AMD kill Team green price performance and even in just performance in most cases...........
Im shocked by the costs above....Gob smacked, flabbergasted.........
