Not sure where to ask this, but I just noticed in BIOS that 512 MB of memory is reserved for the "iGPU" which I assume is the integrated graphics on my motherboard. I have a dedicated GPU, so I'd rather like that memory back. Is it safe to tell it not to allocate that memory as long as I'm not actually using integrated graphics?

xthetenth posted:On the other hand, it's NVIDIA who successfully moved their medium sized chips from the 200-250 dollar price range to the 300-500 range and is somehow getting record margins while killing their competition, and selling huge numbers of a wet fart at 200 because they ran out of decent cards. I'm just hoping it comes in low profile so I don't have to jump for a second 750ti already Having two PCs with modern technology sucks

Anyone else installed Win 10 with a Geforce card yet? After doing so myself and updating to the latest driver, CUDA is not showing as supported in my GPU-Z window. Yay for new OS bugs. I tried a couple games and they seem to run fine, at least.

Wow. NewEgg really impressed me. I bought a 970 right before they switched from Arkham Knight to MGS V. Sent them an email support request asking if there's any way they could give me the MGS V key. (I had already installed AK, and knew they had no responsibility to do anything) And they sent me the MGS V key! Wow! Very impressed.

So far I've talked to 2 people using chat, 3 people on the phone and still don't have my codes from Amazon. Starting to think it isn't worth the effort. But its not like I have anything better to do than try to get free stuff from Amazon.

Being from europe, am I eligible for the MGS5 key thing? My card arrived today. Also, gonna leave it at stock clocks with stock cooler for a week or two, then it's going under water if everything is fine and I'm going to the moon!

HalloKitty posted:Pretty much all the factory overclocked 980 Tis will outperform a stock Titan X. Sorry. Not just that. My Titan X can only get a little bit beyond 1400 core without crashing the drivers, this is on a hybrid cooler with max voltage. I lost the silicone lottery big time. So I've seen people's 980ties overclock past my Titan X on a stable overclock. Hell, I think the Gigabyte G1s are faster than my OC'd Titan X on their stock clocks. They say "the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom", my wisdom is don't buy a Titan. Automata 10 Pack fucked around with this message at 23:25 on Jul 30, 2015 |

I lost the silicone lottery big time. i can empathize. my 970 STRIX can't go past 1300mhz boost clock without getting artifacts and crashing even with voltage turned all the way up. I imagine it burns more when it's a $1000 video card though.

I'll probably upgrade when Pascal comes out anyways. The only things I really spend money on are cigarettes, my investments, and computer parts/games so I'll just grab the 1080 or whatever.

I know it's a funny joke, but the difference in power usage simply isn't enough to replace a space heater, just so we're grounded in reality. It's more like having another incandescent bulb switched on (under peak load).
