ParticipantRight. Saw your post on Nvidas forum or was it Overclockers.
Well, I got my Titan Pascal and I put in an order for EK-waterblock that will arrive in about 2 weeks.
From what I’ve gathered from reading reviews and tests (with and without water) it seems that 1.It is bound by the power it can draw (about 300W if one is generous) and 2. Problem with heat, that water will alliviate.
Overclocking the GPU first hand then push the memory, since you don’t want to starve the gpu of power funneling it off to the memory (give less fps raising mem).
I can’t test anything since VorpX wont accept my registry number. Bought it last week before getting my Titan but it just wont start the license. Bugger it all :(
And it looks like I lost a memory channel on my cpu, will try and reseat it sometime in the future but I don’t have high hopes…
Well, I guess I will just play Elite.
And yeah, was somewhat dissapointed in the resultion – it is both better and worse than I imagned. Better becasuse it is more than I expected, worse because at the end of the day I want more pixels :)
Cheerio!

ParticipantWell, since there was free-shipping on the Rift I just ordered one.
I’ll get the Titan and EK-waterblock when I get around overhauling my apartment (looks like a electricians workshop, and messy at that).
I would say that it was your thread right here that made me make the decision to get the Rift and not wait; you’ve given food for thought and showned what to expect when things are setup properly.
I’m still a bit ‘worrie’ about the resolution but it seems we are allready pushing the limit on FPS with top notch hardware so higher rez might not even be playable.
Fun times ahead :)

ParticipantIs the GFX driver having any impact on Framerate?
I started going with Texture filtering set to Performance or even High Performance since I think the tradeoff in quality is minimal in moving frames.
Easy to see the difference in screenshots but I usually move my avatar when I am in a game :PWell, I’m kinda eyeing the Titan now, with an EK fullsize waterblock to go with it. We’ll see, still holding off gaming for a while.
Cheers!

ParticipantVery nice!
I got liquid cooling and I would say it’s the best thing I did to my computer; had it on a few builds the last ten years or so. Now it is ‘only’ on the cpu and gpu, don’t see the need to cool other parts, besides in restricts flow.If it is not a total fail I will be getting Deep Mind 12 when Behringer releases that Synth. Just got the Korg Minilogue a month ago and I really like it (I know not all are sold on the sound though).
Interesting that 1920×1440 gives such an impact, one wonders what is happening with the pixels when oversampling makes such a huge difference on a lower rez display.
Good luck in all your endeavours :D

ParticipantReally enjoyed reading more VorpX experience with Nvidias new hardware.
When I have used ENB in the past I only go with the Boost tech since much of the shaders override the games specifically written environment ones and thus will not give you those unique shaders created for some locations (guess there could be some kind of exclusion list written for which ‘cells’ are not to be processed).
Anywho…. If you could get the injector ENB working one might wonder how much you could push, as all/much the gfx data will not be part of the 32bit limitations (the 32bit part will get more space to breathe thus not taxing the programming).
I don’t know when I will get the Oculus rift since for the moment I am on a hiatus from most gameplay – so I don’t feel inclined to put all the money down for both Titan and Oculus, I’d rather buy a new synth as I’m back into music production again.
Thank you for your indepth testing :)
