My main monitor right now is the ROG Swift, with a Asus 120hz panel as my secondary. I rotate through the Swift, U3011, and Samsung 4k depending on what I am wanting to do. For the Titan X's, I'm going to hook the 4k monitor back up.

Think I can get away with a Silverstone 650w for a Titan X, i7-4770k, 1 SSD and 1 HDD? (overclocking too of course)
It's a 140mm PSU which is easy to fit inside a Prodigy.

niceeeeee...
EVGA doesn't allow double trade up do they? LOL
I traded up from the 780 to the 980 for a few $$$. I'd do it again for a few $$$.
Awesome so do you think you're gonna be keeping that Samsung 4K for a while or are you looking at an alternative right now? (thankfully they sell the samsung one here but it goes for about￥65,490 which is $540. Dunno how I'm gonna nab a Titan X here though lol

Not sure about the Silverstone brand. As long as it delivers full 650w reliably, you should be good.

If I remember right, nVidia reccomends at least a 600W PSU, so you should be fine.
You should be fine. I don't see that system drawing more than 450W under full load (at all).

Should manage anisotropic filtering and 1080p no problem.
Thanks guys. Silverstone gets solid reviews, but my hesitance is due to the superclocked titan and Haswell i7...

Still can't believe this card was only $999, I laughed at people who said it was going to be a grand, oh how wrong I was
Alternative. I put the Samsung up for sale in the B/S/T thread last week. I have my eye on the BenQ BL3201PT or the Acer 32" 4k monitor.

If EVGA included the Titan X as part of their Step-Up program, I may consider it since I'd be getting my full investment on my 980 back. Time will tell, but they haven't historically made their Titan cards available for Step-Up.
Wish I got in early. Was about 2 hours LTTP due to an emergency at work (It took till 2AM for the order to go thru and charge me :/). Still no shipping info. Hope mine just suddenly show up today lol.

My Titan X arrived this morning direct from NV. Swapping out later this eve. Minimalistic packaging, too. I expected a side of gold bars with this thing.
oh man
That ROG Swift is G-SYNC, yea? We have very similar machines (once I get the 2xTitan X's).
4K gaming is very demanding yo

My excuse is that I don't have any cards at all. It's a brand new pc, so I might as well get the full desired spec than order piecemeal.
Correct. Unless you just like new things like me. Pascal gonna be where it's at.
Yes sir .
I was getting like 30 fps at 4k on my Titan Black. Plus I've been waiting on these for a while. Skipped 980 for these.
New tech is also fun.

I'm only getting one of them, but to me it's about owning the hardware itself. Running games well is definitely part of the fun, but not necessarily the number one priority for me.

It is same thing people buy supercar on the road, can't have top speed on public road. But you can do the racing track to see full, like pc benchmark.
Although some might have 4K already and want to stick at least 60fps.
At 3840x2160? Lots of them. Just replaying games with better image quality would be enjoyable enough for me. I don't think my conscience could handle buying two of these cards though and a single wouldn't be worth it.

I don't have a 4k TV yet, but I plan to run dsr at 2k or 4k...

I got in a little before 3pm Eastern and did overnight shipping. The $33 shipping charge was easy to justify given the price of the card. Guess I didn't have to even choose overnight though, judging by Smokey's posts.
Hope your card comes soon.

I probably did 3:15 pm eastern. But they held my payment for a few hours to authorize it. No idea why. I had paid for "next day afternoon". Given I don't even have a tracking number yet, I highly doubt I'm getting it today

If that's suffering, I want to suffer too.
Also, I guess amazon/newegg aren't releasing the card at 12pm
4 titan blacks can't handle most games at 4k at 60fps? D=

I think that happened to me when I bought the original Titan. My CC company actually held everything up because they thought it was fraud. I used PayPal this time and I got the shipping confirmation about three hours after I placed the order.
Here's to hoping for a surprise on your end this afternoon.
Alright, I will listen to the man of Titans. I'll wait for that Pascal Titan. By then I should have an IPS 144Hz 27" or 30" monitor.
But god damn that itch for new stuff is hard to resist.
Far Cry 4 is great in SLI now. The scaling is up around 90%. Just avoid SMAA and TXAA as they're both bugged in different ways. I force FXAA through NVCP at 2560x1400 and the image quality is good enough for my liking.

Thanks! Yeah smokey did paypal too. I should keep this in mind for future purchases

Nope. The boost clock for the superclocked EVGA card will be 1216 MHz.

Can one finally play Crysis 3 at 60 FPS with two of these?
And I'm starting to think I'm going to get at least one of these when they go up on newegg, my tax refund finally came in. The fates want it!
Edit: Mean at 4K of course

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?

With 2 of these slightly overclocked, yes. You should be able to hit stable 60 with maxed out settings and good AA.

Soo some pages say "Coming Soon" and some pages say "Out of Stock". Hope I didn't miss my chance :/
Nice! Man, I think Windows 7 is holding mine back with 3d mark :/
