ASUS GTXTITAN-6GD5 GeForce GTX TITAN 6GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Was incredibly fast and stable.

Cons: It began to crash when launching 3d applications after about a month & 1/2 of use, never overclocked. Sent to Asus 2 weeks ago in full packaging, received card back lightly bubble wrapped and loose in a brown box. No original packaging was returned. Card returned with same problem, crashes when launching any 3d app. Now I am without original packaging and still have a non working card. I swapped in a friends Titan and there was no issue. I have been on phone for a total of 3 hours with support and now they are going to test the card again, after I send it to them again.

Pros: AMAZING CARD!!!! SERIOUSLY JEEBUS!

Cons: Nothing, oh and if you take the heat sink off you can make toast.

Other Thoughts: Guy who said "Not as fast as a 690, not twice as fast as a 7970 or 680 but twice as expensive. Should have been 799-899.
But my biggest niggle? I want a shroud in asus black and red. All the titans use the stock cooler and look alike. At least differentiate a little." Is a total arftard. Where do I start?
A: It's far faster than any of those, and yes, it IS actually more than twice as fast as a 7970.
B: It's far better than a GTX 690, not only because it has far higher VRAM, but it's also a single GPU, this allows for Quad-SLI to be 4 cards, allowing for more power than two GTX 690s. KTHXBAI!

Pros: Fast. Very, very fast. I try to run everything at 2560x1600, and my old GTX580 was just getting too slow. With this, it's no problem. With an i7 2600k, I average about 75 fps in Bioshock Infinite and about 40-50 fps in Crysis 3, both with effects maxed out. I don't think the Titan even cares when I run StarCraft 2 - the fan never spins up.

Cons: Fan noise. And this is a very relative con, since I'm coming from a custom GTX580 that was barely audible even at load, in a system that is almost completely silent. Compared to, say, just about any other reference blower out there, the Titan's fan is probably a pro.

So my system has several 120 mm fans, all running between 500-800 rpm, inside a case with noise dampening panels. I have to stop everything and strain my ears to hear it from half a meter away. At idle (30% fan speed), the Titan is inaudible - I've never had a quieter video card. At load, the Titan pretty quickly ramps up the fan (to about 60% at most), and you definitely get a good whooshing sound. It's not an issue if you're listening to the game's sound effects, but it could be annoying otherwise.

Other Thoughts: My old video card was an open air cooler. Even though the Titan's blower is noisier, it expels hot air from the case. Between that and GPU Boost 2.0, my system runs a good bit cooler under load now. I can live with that.

Pros: Ok it's fast, built well, overclocks well, uses relatively little power.

Cons: Not as fast as a 690, not twice as fast as a 7970 or 680 but twice as expensive. Should have been 799-899.
But my biggest niggle? I want a shroud in asus black and red. All the titans use the stock cooler and look alike. At least differentiate a little.

Other Thoughts: Pushing only 1 1440 monitor, but I like all the eye candy maxed out.

Pros: The absolute best gaming experience money can buy at this point. SLI Titans will play anything maxed out, period. Moving up to 3D Surround and there are a few limitations but not many. The only so far is Crysis 3 in 3D Surround and the Witcher 2 with Ubersampling enbaled in 3D Surround. Every other game I've played, 3D capable or not at 5760x1080 40 frames minimum on everything. Running 5760x1080 with maximum settings average frame rates: Bioshock 3 80 FPS, 3D Battlefield 3 55 FPS, Crysis 3 60 FPS, 3D Skyrim 60 FPS, 3D Far Cry 3 60 FPS. V sync enabled of course.
The Titan is an excellent overclocker. I was able to acheive a maximum stable GPU clock of 1225 Mhz on air, but I run it at 1150 Mhz when I'm not benchmarking as it just seems to be the sweet spot for this card in my opinion. And the Titans run very cool. I run the fan maxed out because I wear a headset and can't really hear it, however the GPU never exceded 64 C under any conditions and that's in SLI. Very nice looking card. With the glowing Geforce GTX lettering on the side it's immediatley apparent to anyone who sees it that you don't mess around when it comes to PC gaming.
I was able to acheive a score of roughly X5400 and P14000 in 3D Mark11 with a single GPU at 1175 Mhz and X10150 and P21200 in SLI at 1225 Mhz.
I've been using MSI Afterburner to overclock as I don't like the Asus GPU Tweak software. It limits your clock speeds, where the MSI software does not.
I would complain about the price, but when you think about what else is it that could touch this kind of performance and how much would that cost? 3 GTX 680 Classified edition would cost around the same price as two of these and you would get about the samer performance. But you'll get far better scaling with 2 GPUs than 3. Take my word on that. I've run 3 and 4 way GPU configs and I hate anything over 2 GPUs. 3 way SLI isn't bad, but 4 is flat out horrible. If you've got 2 grand to throw down on graphics cards SLI Titans is where it's at.
1 of these bad boys is about as fast as my SLI 3GB GTX 580s that I had previously.
These cards support the monitor overclock, but I've never actually tried it. I've read reviews about other people who have got 60 hz monitors into the 80 hz range which is amazing. My monitors, Acer GD235HZ will not go over 120 hz. Not surprising really. They also support TXAA which is an extremely costly setting to run in terms of performance but is absolutely gorgeous and you'll be able to do it with SLI Titans. Execpt Crysis 3. It crippled the frame rate on that game with TXAA enalbed with other settings maxed @1080p.
Having 6 GB of VRAM is a bonus. I doubt you'll see that kind of usage for years to come. The most I've seen so far is 2.7 GB of VRAM used.

Cons: Driver issues. Which is to be expected of any new graphics cards. Not usual at all. But I should point out that I can't play Rage because artifacts keep cropping up all over the place. Bioshock 3 crashing randomly. Witcher 2 crashing randomly. And it happens whether I'm overclocked or at factory clocks. I'm also seeing artifacts in Witcher 2 in 3D but not in 2D. Didn't have that with my 580s.
The Asus GTX Titan doesn't really come with any goodies included. No free software or any good adpaters or SLI bridges.
According to what I've read the cards start to throttle the clock speeds above 70c, from what I understand it's not supposed to occur until 80c. That may be a driver issue that will be fixed later on, or it may not. I've never hit 70c so I don't really care.

Other Thoughts: I wanted the fastest 2 way SLI setup I could get for running 3D games. As, 3D games don't seem to scale correctly with 3 or more GPUs 2 way SLI is the way to go for 3D. I scored 7th place on Futuremarks website Hall of Fame for 2 GPUs on 3D Mark 11 Extreme preset with SLI Titans. That's the kind of power you get with these cards. I'm no expert. Just a casual user.

Pros: Best single-card mini-itx solution at the moment. The GTX 690 is somewhat faster for gaming at the same price, but uses more power and can't even scratch the TITAN's surface when it comes to compute. I expect that gap to shrink a bit as drivers evolve.

Cons: Price. This should be $100-$200 cheaper than it is. This cost it one star on my review.

Other Thoughts: Professional reviewers have pointed this out, but it's a bit startling how physically solid this card feels.

Pros: Best single GPU solution there is. Runs very quiet and cool. Draws very little power for such a powerhouse.

Cons: The card still can't play every game out there "maxed" out with a 2560 x 1440 monitor and maintain 60fps. The bios and drivers for this card needs an update. They will "throttle" themselves back as temperature approach 70 degrees F.

Other Thoughts: Got one of these with the first batch that came out, but waited to see if some updates would be released before I wrote my review. These cards should be able to give us so much more. Hopefully a bios update and new drivers will give us what we wanted with these cards.

Pros: lowest latency of any card out there by a WIDE margin. Brilliant colors, quiet and cool. The Rolls Royce of GPUs. Literally two to 5x faster in actual frame delivery times than any multi GPU solution. This is more important than fps in many cases.

Cons: NONE

Other Thoughts: once you use it you will forget multi GPU

Pros: Takes a mean one on almost every card out there.I came from a GTX480 that couldn't run Far cry 3 at max had to tone the settings down allot. Same with Crysis 2 and other games.This GTX Titan is a real piece of work.

Cons: The price and it tested my wife's vocal cords to the max.

Other Thoughts: I would love to have two of thees in sli on water but i don't think my wife's vocal cords will take any more.

Pros: Amazing card overall. Top of the line build quality, whisper quiet, great temps under load thanks to GPU Boost 2.0, and the green LEDs are a great touch. The bundled Asus Tweak software monitors/overclocks the card as expected.

Cons: Price, but that's expected. Also, coming from an EVGA GTX680, a backplate would be nice.

Other Thoughts: At stock settings and gaming @ 5760x1080, this card will run these games at 45+FPS at the following settings:
Battlefield 3, maxed out
Skyrim, maxed out with lots of mods
Crysis 3, very high textures, everything else on medium

I can say that I'm very happy with the performance of this card. Hope to buy another when the price goes down so I can run everything at 60 FPS!
