I have gigabyte g1 1070 nothing in vr has come close to tripping it up and i would also wait on TI before any upgrade.

i had a 550ti before and it kept just going and going, not with vr ofc but coming from an mmo background it never complained

I'm kind of interested in this, but is it true that board partners only resell the reference version of titans? My case is set up with all front and rear fans as intake and four exhaust fans on top, so reference cards just spit the heat out the back only for it to be sucked back in by the intake.

Also curious why the clock speeds on titan cards are lower, but that must not make a difference.

[Greyman]

Maybe set your back fan as exhaust then?  I also try to get a slight positive pressure, so do you have any more fan mounts for another intake or two?

[Vetkin]

I've got two fans in the back, two in the front, and four on top. One of the rear intake fans is larger so ideally it should have positive pressure. I could shift the rear fans to exhaust but I feel like the top exhaust is so much more thermodynamically efficient. My radiator is on top also and I like setting it up as exhaust.

Not a big deal, but a non reference cooler would work better with my setup. Seems a shame if Titan cards are stuck with the stock cooler when better options are available on the slower cards.

[Goobers]

You could adjust the speeds, so that even if there's only 2 front intakes and 6 exhaust, you can keep positive pressure.

I agree that having a top exhaust is good... but it doesn't necessarily have to be the ONLY exhaust... Pulling hot air out ANYWHERE is always good.

I prefer positive pressure inside the case. I have two 140mm fans as front intakes, and a 120mm fan on the back near the top as the exhaust (above the GPU). I also have two 120mm fans on the top drawing outside air through my CPU's water cooler rad. This set-up provides plenty of fresh air for GPU and CPU cooling, and most of the hot air from both goes right towards the exhaust fan to be expelled from the case. Any remaining hot air bleeds out through the other vented surfaces.
