I'm building a rig before September once I decide between the 1070 or RX 480. Right now my GPU is the Nvidia 9400m 256mb. Thats right, an ancient laptop.

>>54851367
If you mean sometime during the summer, great, but if you're willing to wait until September then at least hold out until Black Friday. It's a free 10-20% in your pocket or tacked onto the rig.

Does September == school? All the more reason to wait. Focus on your studies and game between the semesters. New releases will be out for the holidays anyway.

I know, its not a custom loop. I'm going to change that for the 1080Ti.

I had a Titan X before, but its also shit for 4K. I won't spend much until ME:Andromeda makes it worth it.
>5 months
No, around February 2017. I won't buy it before Andromeda is released or almost on the market. Also no Fail Edition for me, I want the Classified version. The 1070 gives me time and more VRAM.
>>54851685
Its still decent for 1080p or even 2K. But it lacks VRAM for 4K. I can max BF4 without MSAA in my resolution, but games like Witcher 3 won't even run on Ultra-Low (30-40 FPS).

I was thinking of getting a used 980Ti, but they still want 450 € for them, considering a NEW 1070 will be around 429 € I buy the new one with full warranty, driver support and more payback when I sell it later.
>>54851711
I don't care, he should provide me a cooling solution that can keep my Ti cool @1.2V on 1306 Mhz. Thats impossible. The Arctic Hybrid thing was cheap for me and I have 62° max under full load while being quieter than the stock cooler.

I bought the Ti later as I stated, the only other option was a GTX 970 and I think trash belongs in the trashcan and not my PC. This card may be a plasma heater (350W power target) but AMD doesn't do better and it supports Gsync.

The 390 temps depend on actual load. Assuming full load i.e. Furmark or Unigine Heaven benchmark it goes to 80 C. Any attempt to OC decently [i.e. 10% improvement] causes it to climb to 90 C where it's not worth while to run because of thermal throttling which degrades performance to about 6% improvement for a 10%+ clock boost and a 20% boost to power consumption.

So you can get shit on by Vega twice as hard?

I hear you goys still have to use bridges for multi GPU. Is that really true or just some overzealous AMD propaganda? Under normal circumstances I wouldn't even ask... but Nvidia has really been falling behind the curve lately. Did you know that not even the 1080Ti will use HBM? GDDR5X for a flagship in 2017.

I'm planning a pretty serious replacement of both PCs anyway. Two PCs built for vidya is kinda pointless and my 3930K is an awkward compromise between a workstation (not really enough cores) and a vidya rig (cores kinda slow individually). Planning a dual xeon build for work and a separate ITX vidya rig so I can have the right tool for the job at hand. Will be nice to better separate work and personal shit anyways.

As for cost, I'll take any deduction I can and this is one of the few business expenses I have as a contract developer

Why don't you overclock it? I was thinking of getting me a 3930/4930K platform for cheap. Or 5820 soon, but it doesn't make much difference @OC.

I would just OC it and invest in GPUs. I'm still on a 3770K which is the smallest bottleneck even if I had 2 1080Tis.

For workstation purposes I would look for the Xeon 2670, they are being sold on Ebay for cheap and they are powerful octacore CPUs for just 50 €! ECC memory is dirt cheap, but if you want a dual socket platform those mainboards costs 300+.

Really? I got almost 20 FPS when I overclocked the single Titan to 1550 MHz/2000.

I would keep the Titans if I was you. You have more VRAM and the same performance. If you are too dumb to overclock then you don't deserve it.

You can do at least 1400 without touching the Vcore. On a good air cooler you can raise it to 1.2-1.21 V, but I wouldn't go higher except you use a fullcover waterblock.

pic related, stable at full load on all cores

Boards to take a pair of E5-2670s are getting scarce now and cost as much as a dual 2011v3 board from what I've seen.

I was looking at replacing the 3930K with a 6900K or 6950X but for similar money I could build a brand new dual 2620v4 system that'd suit my development workloads much better.

3770K and 3930K are like four years old now senpai, they're still good but their shine has well and truly worn off now and generations of IPC improvements are outpacing their ability to overclock

>4.7 is a lot for a 3930K.
It'll easily go higher but needs a bit more voltage. This level is comfy so I stick with it. Hitting 4.8 and higher means 1.4v+ and cooling that gets fucking noisy. I spend most of the day chained to this thing so not sounding like a 777 at takeoff power is important. Thinking about moving it into a better case so I'm not limited to 240mm radiator.

Shit like pic related suggests a pretty serious boost in single thread performance. I'm not going to overclock my way out of that without becoming best mates with an LN2 supplier.

What's likely is I build a dual socket system in the next 2-3 months and then use this for vidya until end of year or so, then I'll look at replacing with an SFF build since I won't have much room to spare if there's a full-tower workstation taking up space already.
