Will my PC Run this? What CPU/GPU to get? What settings? System Specifications.

[kklownboy 43]

well at 900$ ~ basically equal to a 690... whatever. It would be nice to use. Good for a creamy 1400p experience. Maybe EVGA will have the upgrade plan on this. Give back your 680 4GBs for a Titian... Hurry BT! want to read about your next uber build.

I'll gladly spend the money if the performance is there.

As usual, until we get official reviews, it will be a storm of BS, FUD and rumors :(

The price is pretty much confirmed at this point, it's the performance we know very little about.

Linus Tech Tips has a Titan and an AMD Ares II.

As of this posting he hasn't uploaded a benchmark test yet.

Linus has also dropped $8500 on a HD Camera and a bunch of cash on studio lighting

for his videos and his Friday night Livestream on TwitchTV

Interesting :D

Apparently there will be no benchmarks until Thursday the 21st - unless somebody leaks them.

I live in the same city as Linus, maybe I can sneak into his garage and do some quick benchmarks and upload them before the cops arrive ;)

Sheer price is enough to keep me away -- my most recent card is the first time that I've ever bought a card for more than $200 (a 660 Ti for $276 after MIR with Assassin's Creed 3) and before that it was a 5770 for around $150... absolute MSRP matters, not just performance.

[bangtail 0]

The price makes little sense to me - it is on average 42% faster (not confirmed) than a stock clocked GTX 680 and for some reason Nvidia are charging like it is 100% faster.

Crysis 3 performance may push me over the line here but Nvidia are abusing the fact that there is no competition at the moment.

Hopefully AMD will get something out the door that will force Nvidia to alter their avaricious pricing.

[Leon86 13]

Dunno, people seem to be fine with paying a decent premium for nvidia. 680 is over 20% more expensive than a 7970 Ghz ed where I live. To make the titan go down in price amd needs to make something that's quite a bit faster.

[kualus 1]

I've read people saying that Titan is best suited to those who need heavy duty compute power, but don't need all of the features that Tesla K20 has and want to save money.

[froggyluv 2136]

Titan. Sexy name but pretty sure Ill pass on this "luxury" card though 6gb vram sounds pretty freakin hawt! I feel like Im in VC limbo with the 680 2gb because as much as I want to go SLI -I'll still be at 2gb vram...

Why oh why didn't I wait and grab the 670 4gb and SLI that b**ch :(

[bangtail 0]

I'm sure that Crytek and Nvidia colluded to release Crysis 3 and these cards at the same time just to annoy people.

Crysis 3 is the first game in I don't know how long that will actually slow 2 680s down to levels that I am not happy with.

Bring on the reviews I say :D

@FL: You should be able to flog the 2GB 680 for a reasonable price.

Yep but with my awesome new hi-res Catleap monitor I'm now greedy for me Vram :o

Edit: Oh wait, your meaning sell the card I have -hehe. Yeah I guess so Ive just never gone thru the process before -sounds daunting. I still have my pair of 460's rotting away in my closet -couldn't even give those things away :p

Edited February 21, 2013 by froggyluv

Yah, I'm saying get rid of the 680 and get 4GB 670(s) ;)

Your Local say's Canada, he lives in Portland OR.

If its equal to two 680s, then its worth the price.

May not be all that much in Dx11 titles but may be that and more in older titles? I will wait for another round of Drivers to be released to make a better judgment.

[bangtail 0]

It's pretty impressive at high resolutions

In Hitman it is twice as fast as a 680 at 1600P

EDIT: The 1600P scores are pretty good across the board tbh, and that just happens to be the res I game at.

Not sure why Tech Report is using a 3820 @ Stock :confused:

Hilbert over at Guru3D is using an OC'd 3960X (4.6) which really allows the Titan to stretch it's legs.

This thing is beastly at 1600P.

Linus is in Vancouver, Canada. [West coast above Washington state]

He used to work for NCIX as the product manager, now he just does videos for them on the NCIXcom channel.

He's come a long way since the beginning.

So I've been looking for a while and I think this will do amazing with BF3, Arma 2 and Arma 3. It is a great value for what it is and the CPU speed, except the GPU. I'm not sure but I think a GT 610 sucks, I think it will be able to run Arma 2 on low settings until I upgrade. I think I will save up and but a GTX 660 for around $200 or cheaper. I just wanted to see what you guys think of this system. Is there something else in the $600 range with the same basic stuff and a better GPU? Please let me know! :D

I forgot to mention I can get the same computer with a GT 520, the only difference if the GPU.

That's not a good system, where do you live? there are probably better deals to be had.

you can probably get it for less off of newegg, or get something better.

Edited February 24, 2013 by Leon86

[froggyluv 2136]

I would avoid those systems like grim death. Save up another $169 and get this if your determined to get a premade system http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/CYBERPOWERPC-Gamer-Xtreme-GXi450-Intel-i5-3.4GHz-Gaming-Computer/7401927/product.html

Its a vastly superior CPU and a decent enough GPU (tho I'd still save to upgrade it further) although that red case would give me bad dreams..

[Beastlygrandpa 1]

If you have any recommendations please tell me!

[froggyluv 2136]

Well I recommended the PC above :rolleyes:

Honestly at $600.00 US your not going to get a lot for a premade system. I used to live in PA long time ago and Microcenter or Newegg is your best bet.

Hello everyone , can i run arma:CO with AMD X6 FX-6300 3.5GHz , 3,3GB ram and Geforce GTS450 grafic card , WindowsXP 32bit higher then Low/medium settings?
