"67 degrees, 2100+mhz" they said it'll clock to 2.5ghz on air, they said

Good news: Guru3D seems more popular than ever. Bad news: can't get review page to load

Well, seems like quite the monster - unarguably. 700€ for a 80°C beast leave somewhat of a bitter taste, though. Nvidia, NotLikeThis. I assume that the Founder's additional $100 will be the baseline for board partners, as they're likely gonna stomp the reference design into the ground. Then there's 'big pascal', quite a few months away, of course, but potentially crapping all over the 1070/1080 again. I don't expect this card, insofar available to begin with, to drop anytime soon in price.

Yeah the site is being hammered, 800% increase in traffic. This'll take a few minutes to resolve.

Woo somehow read it. 😀 It like it, but I don't like it enough to replace my Titan X just yet. Hands down it's a powerhouse. No doubt about that. Power draw is down a considerable amount, that's awesome too! Performance is great, but not a significant amount over what I have now. I would have to score a pretty sweet deal to get one of these, but anyone with a 970 or lower would easily get a nice upgrade with one of these.

The dynamic load balancing looks really interesting. Still trying to get through the rest. PcPer is getting hit hard too.

Hitman/W3 numbers are impressive. 2 should be fine for 4K. my 3-way 980 was JUST enough for 4k. Almost twice as fast as 980 in GTA V.

£619. :eek3: You could probley pick up a 6 gig second titan for half that price these days.

Almost 100% increase across the board over my 970 (Which is struggling at 1440p/60 FPS let alone the 144 I'd like for my 144hz monitor). So I still plan on getting one when available.

Most boring change of node ever, and for $800 (after exchange rates and taxes) I´d demand more than a 25% improvement over the latest full chip and more than console amounts of memory... I mean seriously 800?, it´s not even the real deal Pascal and not built from the ground up as a DX12 chip either... people should get a discount.

So what i got from that is, Wait for board partners way better coolers, because what they said about the 2100mhz 69 degrees is complete bull**** and probably had the AC blowing directly on the card. Overclocking is really mehhhhhhhhhh on the reference cooler.
