it depends if talk is right, and if those results scale with mining performance. If so, the gtx 980 is the same as 3 750ti's power wise.
performance wise a 780 is 3 750ti's, and a 980 is 1.3 times a 780, making a 980 the equivalent to 4 750ti's and the power usage of 3, plus only a single slot card
I may be wrong but that's how i see things, although i do think their graph is most likely incorrect
That is awesome isn't it? Do we have any idea what the 980 may retail for? Under $500 USD is probably wishful thinking... i think the expected retail was $550-$600 which isnt bad unsure how much a 750Ti is in $ now, but even at say $110 each, the 980 would be better off space wise and power wise then 4 750ti's even at a slightly higher price

I don't really understand. In layman terms , it means able lower to wattage and increase hash ?

I pitched this at developers mostly, not laymans ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) The net effect will be more hash *and* more wattage.

I mean nobody wants a card working at 50% of its capability. You want to use all the tdp to do calculation not some %age of it (right ?). Usually when a card show low tdp usage it just means that the card is spending some time just waiting to be able to perform calculations edit: anyone wanting to reduce tdp usage. Just use the slider in msi afterburner to your prefered max tdp usage, the card will adjust its clocks accordingly...

So its gonna be Killer Groestl part 2 final episode ? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I think one can kill a lot of things with such a low level assembler. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) It offers much more control than if one used inline PTX. Inline PTX still doesn't allow you to perform manual register allocation. And a lot of PTX instructions expand to several machine commands, reducing the amount of control over the exact sequence of instructions that the programmer may want to assert.

Basically it means you can tell the program what to do when, so instead of it auto running a long task and leaving quick ones to wait, you could do the quicker tasks and let the longer ones run after. In theory reducing the time the gpu is waiting around for
May be wrong though

yeah I guess I need the laymans terms for your explanation ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) In layman terms, I would say that usually when you ask your gpu to do something, you use a translator (compiler) But since the translator isn't really native from the country of the gpu, sometime things get a bit distorted... So what it is proposed here is to speak directly to the gpu in his own language and not even using google translate (inline ptx)

2 Nvidia rigs, exactly the same hardware and software, mining x11, 6 x 750ti GA Blacks: First one, happy as, clocked a little: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F1qUqu11.png&t=665&c=x6D-YM_f2T_Y4g) Second one, cracks the shits as soon as I wanna clock even a little bit: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fuhab5VI.png&t=665&c=lIXmBSSyFpVuOA) They both even have the same BIOS image. Wipe it clean and start again with drivers/cuda/visual studio etc?

some cards simply wont overclock as high as others, even the same model and bios. Best bet is to overclock all cards separately and go from there.
Make sure you untick Sync when overclocking else they will all clock the same
I had 3 cards, one would go over 100MHz higher then the other 2, no reason why

Worked a treat, thanks for the suggestion. It was one card that didn't want to go over factory OC, the rest were happy with +70/350. Must have just scraped through on the test bench.

Memory clocks can have an affect on it aswell. It may not handle memory+core clock well. If its not a memory intensive algo, try dropping memory to stock and upping the core. It often gives better results, but a core of 1.37GHz is pretty good
I wonder if the 980's will overclock aswell, that would be a monster if we bump the clock up by the extra 200MHz

2x6pin, might limit a bit the possibility for extra juice and higher clock (?)

It would be strange to see 6 pins now I think it is a 200W card so that could work (I don't remember where I saw that 2x6pin, but I saw it since I found that strange too) standard 780ti is 6+8pins as well as the R9 290x Might have to wait for the monster edition with 8gb of vram... not sure what they want us to do with 8gb and 256bit memory bus though...
