    I know i asked this before, but this time it sounds more relevant. trollers allowed, haters no!!

    This shouldn't take long to be answered. Lets say that i don't need to but am very willing to finally know if it is really worthy because i have some poeple after my 2 years old cards, they're on sale. [​IMG]

    Context ?

    -personal computer's specifications in signature,
    -Windows 10 x64,

    usage:
    -surround (5760/1200 - 6.9m+ pixels) or DSR gaming,

    goals:
    -less power/noise
    -probably not a gtx 980Ti reference card, probably... ASIC and all that concern... but that isn't here the question lays really.
    -more comfort in games with only one card ?

    this is what my cards usage looks like under win10 x64 after a few hours of playing Far Cry 4, surround 5760/1200 all at max

    [​IMG]
    6500MB of Vram used in FC4, how come ? system memory been put at task in windows10 probably, or windows10's graphic improvments(generally said) ?

    It looks like im dreamin' awake though, can one single muscled 980Ti deal with 5760/1200 high IQ in the latests games ??

    A 980Ti will pretty much match Titan SLi when scaling is good / great.

    It draws half the power and is a single card.

    For sure.

    Thx
    even with the game's use of the GPU's usage in the spoiler i have provided, it is still too early yet to compare ... erff

    Only upgrade titan sli if your getting 2 980ti. Went from 780ti sli to 980ti sli and it's an awesome upgrade.

    Don't worry about that. Both Titan and 980Ti are 6GB. 980Ti is bound to be even more efficient with VRAM allocation, if anything.

    Don't bother with 1 card, not enough performance difference to make it worth it.


    Also that vram usage is driver bug or win10 thing.

    I have 3GB vram and I saw 3.5GB in GTA5 & COD Ghosts.
