Question 1

Whats kind of resolution can this handle? I know i at least want 1920x1080p but could it go to higher resolutions?

Accepted Answer

I've had no problem running anything at 1920x1080.  I plan on upgrading to 4k in the summer and with the dvi dual link it shouldw have a problem with that either

Question 2

Jeff W.
               What is the deference between the EVGA 780TI ( dual ) and the EVGA 780 TI super clocked. I need one for my new computer  ?

Accepted Answer

While there may be obvious comparisons in performance, I purchased this dual card to cut back on the heat. I've had overclocked cards in the past and they have all run hot and overtime proved not worth the worry if I had water cooling. Since I've also yet to go down that road if went for the GPU that was proven to work within factory tolerances as it was manufactured for.  The dual was the right choice for me.

Question 3

Should I buy this card or the EVGA 03G-P4-2884-KR GeForce GTX 780 Ti Superclocked 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support w/EVGA ACX Cooler Video Card, which one is better? or are they the same just that this one is factory overclocked

Accepted Answer

Most of the cards in EVGA's 780 Ti line are, including the 2888-KR (this card) and the 2884-KR clocked over the nVidia's specs. 2884-KR:
1006MHz Base Clock
1072MHz Boost Clock
241.4GT/s Texture Fill Rate

2888-KR:
1020MHz Base Clock
1085MHz Boost Clock
244.8GT/s Texture Fill Rate

As you can see, there isn't a ton of difference between the two. I'd weigh the increase in performance against the difference in cost between the two.

You can go to EVGA's website and see their entire line of 780 Ti cards. Compare the part numbers from there to Newegg's prices.

Question 4

Will this card fit in a Cooler Master N200 case? I also gotta take into account the pin power connection.

Accepted Answer

I would do a little research, but I don't think you'll see much difference between the two. I own the EVGA 780Ti Dual Classified and it performs great. Playing Titan fall now with everything maxed and I have yet to see a glitch. Either way it's a great buy. My preference will always be EVGA because they provide excellent customer service and they stand by their warranty 100% no Hassel. I have been buying their products for years now and I have not problems with getting great customer service and replacements for defective parts.

Question 5

I am working on my new future proof gaming rig and I am stuck on what power supply I need to get. I want to SLI 2 GTX 780 Ti's with enough headroom to overclock the CPU, RAM, and maybe even the GPU in the future. I've been doing a lot of research and 50% of people say that an 860W PSU is enough but another 50% says you need at least 1000W's. I am trying to get a 80 plus platinum PSU that is fully modular. My choices are either Seasonic 860W platinum or 1000W platinum. I would even get a Corsair AX Series PSU but I have heard that they get coil whine under load but I am not a Corsair PSU expert so I don't know. I just don't want to overkill on a 1000W PSU when an 860W would be enough? Detailed answers would be greatly appreciated.   
 
My RIG:
 
SLI GTX 780 TI'S
Gigabyte UD4H Z87 MB
Intel 4770k
Corsair H105 Water Cooler
16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro 1600MHz Ram (4x4 Sticks)
4 Corsair Fans
2 SSDS

Accepted Answer

If you have the money I would go with a 1000w+ power supply. I use an 860w and I just have 1 780 TI. Your setup sounds almost just like mine but with an extra graphic card and less ram/fans. I'm looking at the specs for the card now and it requires 250 watts just for its self. So you need 500 watts for just the 2 cards. I would say 600 just to be safe. Which means you need a minimum of 600+what the rest of your system needs. The proc pulls an average of 84 watts. So thats 700 watts needed for just the cards and proc. So basically 860 watts is cutting it pretty close. If you want ram upgrades, motherboard upgrades, or overclocking you will def want the 1000 watt at least.

Question 6

Can this card support 2 of the ASUS VX228H Black 21.5 monitors? I know the card could handle performance wise but I only see 1 HDMI port on the card and I don't know what D-Sub is...

Accepted Answer

I'm running the 24 inch version of said monitor and it has handled it flawlessly. You should use the two DVI outputs (one for each monitor). This will offer you best performance. Avoid using HDMI unless you want to run some output to a 'TV' type display. No known issues with using HDMI as a primary display port (i sometimes use my tv for gaming with Steam Big Picture just to get out of my computer chair for a while) but as a tech head I have to suggest using the DVI ports for your main displays. More data throughput. the other Display Port is also i high throughput video connection but nothing (in my book) is as good as DVI connections.

Question 7

do you think the lack of a backplate is going to be a problem?

Accepted Answer

Not sure what you question is, but this card has a back plate. If you're thinking about getting it make sure you have a big power supply. The one that is listed on the spec sheet it 600W I think and that is probably not enough. This card pulls 40A on the 12V rail.

Question 8

Will this card fit into my Corsair Obsidian Series Black 550D Mid Tower? I currently have a GTX 680 SC from EVGA and want to replace it with this 780. Please let me know, thanks.

Accepted Answer

i have a gtx 760 and it fits my mid level tower case. The size of this card has roughly the same dimensions. The classified is 11x 5.9, i have a Antec Three Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case It will fit like a sardine can but it will fit. The case is nothing special but it has allot of space for a mid range. I know this is a late response. Bottom line do some measuring before you buy something, so you can have everything in order with no back tracking. Hope this helped

Question 9

I want to get a 780Ti for water cooling purposes. And right now this card is significantly cheaper than buying the bare reference card because of some codes and deals. My question is:
Can I put a standard 780, 780ti, titan water block on this gpu?

Accepted Answer

You CAN NOT you have to get a waterblock for the Classified they are about the same price as the waterblocks for the standard. EK makes the one that I got for mine.

Question 10

Will this card fit in an "Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case"?

Accepted Answer

If you mean this case, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129021, it states: "Maximum Video Card Size: 16" (406mm) (Note: some video cards may require removal of the adjacent hard drive cage)." The card's specifications list a length of 11", so it should fit. We have an older build with this specific case, however, it has a 5850 which is about 9" hence we did not need to remove hard drive cages, but you might have to (as the 5850 is probably about 1-2" away from part of the drive cage).
