More rumors.....

More rumors.....

lol this thread will never end !

That would be super cool but also much more demanding. Most game engines only render the scene that is in your FOV with a slight overlap. Traditionally, most racing games with a rear view render the scene really half-assed.

That's not to say that it couldn't be done.

The good racing sim's out there are still running around on DX9 and outdated graphics. It doesn't take much to max out iRacing over 3 screens and have it run +120fps.

Easiest was to make the 4th monitor a rear view is to open another instance of the sim and run it asa spectator. Then just change the view until you get the rear view of your car.

it was a complete joke that has a slight bit of 'maybe that is a good idea' while still being only ridiculously useless for the majority
some racing games actually have mirrors and i like them so i can block, but they are usually very small and blockly looking inside.

Framerate is really important in online sims. I'm waiting for rFactor 2 atm.

I'm waiting for rFactor 2 atm.

Try it out The tire model feels really good. The graphics still need some optimization though.

@ManicDan, no joke...the 4th screen rear view mirrow is being used by some.

That rumor is funny because the were also trying to guess GK-104 and they were wrong....

680 is out, can we now let this thread die?

This is actually a gtx 780 thread!!!

yeah, but this is the 780 thread

[highoctane]

yeah, but this is the 780 thread

The devils in the details!!!

Sure, but why bury a thread about something that isn't out yet? :P

Well, the power target can actually be set into negative territory in order to limit clock speeds and power consumption. However, no matter what you set it to, the Boost Clock is a constantly moving target since every game loads the GPU in a different way. Basically, the GPU will always try to find an optimal clock speed based upon situational conditions.

Setting the Power Target at 0% (which is the default by the way) won't allow you to overclock the Base Clock anyways since there is no actual option to change that value.

Did you see the GTX680 frequency constantly moving in your tests?
There are reports that it can drop under the base clock during certain situations. I heard about this a few weeks back, maybe the newer drivers fixed this.

Yea it's a gigahertz edition of 7970. Hopefully its a little more than 1ghz, with some memory clocking too

A bit more than that...

I'm a bit confused about the turbo+OC

Hardwarecanucks and techpowerup both write that the OC offset leads to increased turbo headroom and activity and that the (guaranteed?) base clock cannot be increased. This would mean that depending on the circumstances you won't necessarily get the most from a given OC (i.e. 15% OC equals 15% performance increase).

However, the advertising slide for this feature shifts the whole curve further up, including the working point "base clock" and the subsequent turbo frequencies. That seems to imply that the new base clock=old base clock +offset is guaranteed. In some reviews OC gives proportionable performance benefits even in very demanding games, in some it does not.

Now what is the deal with that?

Its actually pretty stable, you dont really see it fluctuate as much as you'd think.

yeah, but this is the 780 thread

Do any overclocking utilities work properly with this yet?

[Russian]

This serves no purpose, bad link but looking at the name I think I know what it is... :P

Just precision X right now.

[aussie-revhead]

Got a link?

Edit: It works great !!!

and my first 10k 3D11 run:

Got a link?

Unfortunately not. This was given to me by EVGA.

My fellow Japamd, just say that AMD has an answer ready for Kepler and is not a Dual GPU ...

Theres absolutely 0 evidence of that happening. Could he provide some hints?

[snoid_zero]

AMD's best response is to lower the price of 7970 by $150...
But I doubt if they can afford that given the expensive BOM of 7970.
