GRID 2
GRID 2 (DirectX 11)
Be fast, be first and be famous as the race returns in GRID 2, the sequel to the BAFTA-award winning, multi-million selling Race Driver: GRID.
Our Settings for GRID 2
GRID 2 shows another tie between the GTX 980 Ti and the Titan X, both coming in at 113 average FPS or so. The dual-GPU R9 295X2 gets more than 130 FPS though the frame time variance is definitely higher than the single GPU options.
Even at 4K, the GTX 980 Ti is able produce an average of 70 FPS on GRID 2, the same as the Titan X. The R9 290X falls behind by 43% while the GTX 980 is 35% slower. Clearly the GTX 980 Ti and the Titan X take the crown for single GPU results.

To bad TSMC didn’t have
To bad TSMC didn’t have better Fabs then just using 28nm that’s been around well over two years. The EVGA GeForce GTX 670 seems to be holding up for the games I play and its 28nm. Nvidia has amazing graphics cards and this can be said for the GeForce GTX 980 Ti, honestly if the chance was there, I would have two of these in SLI.
Nonetheless I’ll be keeping a eye open for Volta. Yes I’ll wait that long especially with it taking on the full 3D HBM IC chips all running on 14nm Silicon.

Still noticing that no review
Still noticing that no review site seems to have the balls to put the 980TI up against Arma 3 Maxed out. or Maxed out at 4K.
My i7-4790k gtx 980 Ti build
My i7-4790k gtx 980 Ti build gets about 38 FPS on the altis benchmark. (everything maxed view distance set to 6500 and objects set to 1600) If you mostly play on small maps like altis or arma 2 maps like takistan it should run alot better. and even that benchmark is kind of a worst case scenario with lost of explosions and smoke effects.
It is a pity that the new GTX
It is a pity that the new GTX 980 TI doesn’t have a backplate as GTX 980 reference.
FCAT??? Why not?

Is there any reason to wait
Is there any reason to wait until the non-reference versions come out? Or is it safe to pull the trigger now?
