[H]NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Overclocking Review

[MrK6]

Overclocked 1440p monitors aren't near as bad. They're also nice to have for 100 other reasons. There's nothing nice about having a GPU setup that can't keep 60FPS at 1440p in some situations if you turn vsync on because it can produce full frames at that rate, and stutter like mad if they drop very far below it.

Competitive /= professional anyways. Besides, a year or 2 from now, I can just buy another Titan, whereas a 7970 setup wont be able to hang at 60fps, and after owning 2 CF setups in a row, I know how they tend to make games unplayable pretty quickly when they can't keep a steady 60fps anymore.

My point is that the Titan i bought, which makes you so angry for some reason, was really not the terrible value you insist that it is.

I did end up selling it, but only because of the possibility that I might be able to grab a couple of 780's for not much more here in a few weeks. Having to go back to 6950's made me regret it pretty quickly though.

If you're still trying to justify to yourself about buying a Titan (or not since you had to sell it for whatever reason), go ahead, but none of your arguments make sense.

My point is that vsync isn't a solution to cf problems. In some games, it actually causes more stuttering.

If the idea of buying something that performs like it's supposed to doesn't make sense to you, then I doubt that anything I could say would make you understand any better. Some tard got butthurt when I pointed out that Titan can match his 7970's memory speeds and then proceeded to tell me how dumb I am for not getting 7970's instead. All im doing is trying to point out that CF 7970's isn't really a better value, because raw FPS numbers are not a real indication of how it performs.

Glad AMD is addressing frame-times and runts instead of downplaying them.

Me too! Hopefully I can stretch the legs on my 7950s soon and not feel disingenuous about the fps I report.

I bet you cant wait.

In all the official reviews Vsync fixes all stuttering issues.

Prove otherwise.

Even PCper tries is hardest to say it doesnt fix. Except his graphs show that every frame is 16ms bar maybe one or 2 at 33ms. Anyone would realise that if a frame is late then it goes to the next available sync which is 33ms. As long as 99% of the frames at 16ms there is no stuttering.

As long as your GPU can hold 60 fps then Vsync will be smooth.

Also Nvidia has no advantage over AMD when Vsync is on. if there is a stutter then its with both makers cards.

Edit : Never mind. Not going to bother.

Thankfully, there is focus to offer more flexibility and quality besides just V-sync for gamers to consider.

such as what?

Frame metering, adaptive V-sync, frame limiters, V-sync smooth!
