Yes, that's correct. It must be manually enabled through the drivers as explained and the clock frequency will be lowered though. I'm betting that a lot of Tesla owners eyes just popped out.

That's pretty insane, I thought they would have done more to decrease performance for DP. I can see more than just the GeForce community attempting to get their hands on one. Starting to see why the price is so high.

At that price range and performance, I see no reason as a gamer to go for this. An overclocked 690 seems to still be top dog. Will wait for the next dual card on this new architecture.

The only problem with the 690 is the lack of VRAM. I don't know why they don't do a version with 2x4GB. 2GB just isn't enough for 1600P+ gaming these days. I was just playing Crysis 3 and was up to 2.7GB in the first few minutes - and that was with SMAA - If I used hardware AA (I'd be running at about 10FPS) and using over 3GB I suspect.

hmmm, Hilbert??? Theres a new function added. That is what CB says..I dont find it in ur article.. i used Bing translate, hope its readable, hehe.. The new option is very interesting i shall say. The thing is, is this only possible with the new CARD or is it driver related???? heres teh text:

Another special feature is hidden in a new function. Advance, while much was puzzled because you believed in a new edition by Adaptive vSync, which was introduced with the GTX 680. "Display Overclocking" however is elsewhere: on the screen. Conventional TFTs we know use 60 Hz, enabled VSync has therefore up to 60 FPS. Now, with the NVIDIA tool, you can monitor "overclock" in Hertz increments. NVIDIA said that the example of 80 Hz - the player is therefore now up to 80 FPS with vSync to see. According to NVIDIA, many displays far beyond the standard 60 Hz can work, however this was never addressed.

ahh, ok i missed that hehe... SO? what u guys think? Also the big question for me is, does this work with all GPU´s or just the titan.....?

It's more about the monitor, and it is going to likely be very hit or miss, most likely miss, depending on the monitor.

Anandtech said they tested monitors in their office and only one worked up to 75hz -- some Samsung display and they said it made no noticeable visual difference. Where it will be nice is those Korean displays that were able to be driven all the way to 120hz. But yeah, most monitors won't see a benefit from this. I'm also pretty sure this has nothing to do with Titan, as you could do it through the custom monitor profile available to all Nvidia cards, this just makes it easier.

Gotta try and wait for the MSI Titan Lightning! Does the Titan seem to not need watercooling, at all, or is it yet TBD? I'm wondering why this series was slated to be only produced by Nvidia for so long? 1,000 bucks seems quite steep, but I think I see why it had to cost so much. Any rumors of a dual-gpu Titan, yet? I love me some single slot dual-gpu solutions!

Great preview. I'm keen to see the benchmarks but not interested in buying one. At least, that is what I keep telling myself so I'm hoping that GTX 680 SLI still fares well against a single Titan. 😀 Is the Titan limited in some way like the GTX 480 was? It looks like a card with some shaders inactive; like it should have 3,072 instead of 2,688 stream processors? Also, the core clock is oddly lower than the GTX 680. Does that mean the GTX 780 will be the full-blooded GF110 GPU? If so then I think I can wait.

The lifespan of the gpu seems to be more under the focus it seems, are we to believe this or it's just scare mongering from nvidia because they dont want RMA'd Titans? Nice preview Hilbertus. Think it's gonna price me out this gpu, unless I sell a bollock or two...:) P.S Xfire 7950's or sli 670's?

Yields must be terrible if they are dearer, and slower than the 690.
