    2x680's are quite alot faster than a 690 when they are overclocked. 680's go from around 1250-1350 on air. A 690 on average will be lucky to hit 1200mhz, only reason mine does it is because its modded bios. I dont think an overclocked 780TI will beat 2x680's Overclocked tbh. Not unless you mod the 780TI's bios. Im sure in time the bios will be modded successfully but atm my money goes on the 680s in SLI for raw perfomance over a 780TI.

    You must remember Agent A01 has a heavily modded Titan(Volt mod) and is on water. The majority of people arnt gonna do that cause there scared of damaging something *cough*nOObs*cough*:D

    I believe the extra six pin is dedicated to memory.

    The unofficial 7990's had three 8-pins iirc.

    I cannot OC mine or the temps would skyrocket. When pushed the top card is already at 85 degrees and the fan is quite loud. Note that I got reference cards and no, I wont take the cooler apart to apply better thermal paste and I wont put water blocks on it :) But I should be able to OC a brand new 780Ti past 1150Mhz, wouldn't you agree?

    Yeah you should do, a good card should do atleast 1200, its luck of the draw.

    I believe that only "hunter" (old user psychopath, banned from the forum Guru3d) could come up with this crap

    Idk you look a psycho lol, naming some random people you don't know anything about., totally off topic. ;)





    Anyway, ontopic:

    I got my eye on this stock 780Ti,
    http://www.mindfactory.de/product_i...80-Ti-Aktiv-PCIe-3-0-x16--Retail-_941106.html

    Looks kinda ok without tax (below 490€) I think i'll take a plunge soon.:nerd:

    1200 Boost? Or base? I'm new at this overclocking thing :)

    Did a small comparison with the only game I could benchmark according to a review. Plus Unigine Valley 1.0

    780Ti OC vs my 680SLI in Metro:LL
    88,85 FPS vs 66,63 FPS

    780Ti OC vs my 680SLI in Unigine Valley 1.0
    77,6 FPS vs 80,4 FPS

    Compared with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfAzZjzVcXE

    Obviously it depends on the software as you can see there from your link. I cant tell you anymore cause i dont own one, i only know as much as you do. But what i can tell you like ive already said that when you OC the 680's they do beat an overclocked 690 by atleast 50hz or more. Even more if your 690 has a stock bios.

    The benefits of the 690 are it uses less power,produces less heat, are quieter, takes up less physical space, and looks nicer. It also has bee reported to have no microstutter cause of the Hardware based frame-metering tecnology.

    Saying that the 680's have no microstutter and even when ive used Nvidia cards in SLI in past ive experienced no microstutter whatsoever. That is why i always buy Nvidia cards cause i get no problems with them.

    I would Just buy the 780ti and be happy with it or wait to see what the new Kingpin version brings and then decide.

    Thanks for your advice, though I'm not sure why you mentioned a 690 :)

    I just want something for X-mas and since I do have the money atm, I'll try a 780Ti and see how it is. I would wait for the Kingpin but obviously it will be so much more expensive than the other 780Tis (maybe 200€ difference?) and in this case, my wallet will hit it's limit.

    Oh :) I'm well aware that a 690 is a dual GPU 680 :p
    But I've not compared 680SLI and 690 since I thought the 680SLI was faster but after checking some benchmarks it looks like the difference is minimal.

    After hours of researching I've come to the conclusion that stock 690/680SLI will always outperform stock 780Ti. But if I OC a 780Ti to at least 1200Mhz boost then it should be on par with 690 (or even beat it sometimes, like in Metro and Anno). To summarise this all up, buying a 780Ti is nothing more than replacing my 680SLI with something of equal power. The benefits would be lower noise/temps and more VRAM but at a cost of roughly €200 (compared to my currency) which seems rather stupid. Another benefit down the road would of course be to buy another 780Ti and thus have the most powerful setup available until Maxwell arrives with it's high end cards in late 2014. Or just keep the 780Ti and replace it within a year or so with High End Maxwell.

    Have I left anything out? :)

    Btw, I loved the review you found on the EVGA 780Ti SC card :) Somewhat puts the 780 max OCed in favor of the 690.

    I would just wait for Maxwell, you have enough power already but its up to you.

    I would think at this point think 680 sli has served you well what has changed or about to?
    My oc'ed 680 set up would beat 1 780ti even thuo it has less ram.

    Soooooooo i got something to test the other day...its says Ti and where mariano rivera is going on it...... i will get back to u guys on that one :formal:
