Question for owners: Will the adjustments made in the Voltage Controller save on the card after shutdown/reset? Or will you need to manually adjust every time?

If you are speaking about an EVBot, if you restart the computer, it will stay since power stays on the cards, if you shutdown you are supposed to have to resubmit new voltages to the cards.  If you use the EVBot you can make a profile which auto reapplies everything for you.

 
ohh ok, good to know. But what about the GTX Classified Controller?

So, I looked in my BIOS and with my cards in its current pciE slots they are at 8x. Is that hurting my performance by a good amount? Sine the classifieds exhaust hot air through the side do you think I can sandwich them in slots 1 and 2 for 16x?

You might wanna' try running them in your M4EZ's PCIe slots 2 & 4 @ x16, via the NF200 chip ...
... your PCIe_1 slot is only at x16 with no other PCIe slots occupied.

More than one hour gameplay on 1600p

Water?

here is AIR at only 4.0GHZ  ,I noticed post by Jacob about the wet blocks going on sale Monday ...will they be available  on eVGA site or somewhere else ?? 


 

I put my cards in slots 2 and 4 for the 16x. Lets see how hot they get being so close to each other :o

The backplate for the 780 classy is now available in the EU if anyone's interested.

Quik Question.

What do you lot recommend to Stability Test a 780 Classified ?

My one should be arriving within the next 10-15 hours, i currently have Unigine Heaven and Valley, aswell as 3d Mark.
Any game benchmarks recommended ? Which ones ?

I've found that the most reliable test for testing stability is Crysis Warhead benchmark loops at the highest possible settings(AA Included), Metro Last Light benchmark loops, and Metro 2033 benchmark loops. In just about every instance I've found that this will signal an unstable overclock before any other bench or game will.

Question  will the waterblock come with the back plate since its needed to install one i thought...

It hasn't in the past - usually have to buy the waterblock, & the $19 backplate ...

 called the EU store to confirm my order and they said  no Blocks as of yet!
 

I don't think the hydrocopper block comes with backplates.
 
Jacob if your around are they still supposed to come today.  Do you have an around about time.

hey if anyone is interested i started an owner's club.  come join.

Ok got mine in , took a while becouse i was benching my old 560ti on the 306.97 drivers i have used for ages, then again on the 326.41 beta that needed to be installed for the 780. 3 runs on each of my 6 bench progs for each driver. The newer drivers increased performance a tiny amount ~1fps on min, max, and average fps.
 
Anyway have done a quik 1 run of all 6 of my bench programs which include Metro LL and FFXIV and im happy :)
Out of the box it clocks to 1163mhz at 1.162v according to RivaTuner/PrecisonX OSD
Going to do a full bench 3 times of each tomorrow.
 
Probably wont increase the voltage any further, will see if i can push the core clock as it stands. Reason being is my rig is rather quiet and at 65%+ the fan and airflow sound starts becoming a biit too prominent for my likeing lol, I could deal with it easily when gaming but i want to keep it quiet if i can. Also at 70% fan speed it develops a resonance and somthing within the card vibrates, going up to 73% stops that....the peculiarities of resonance frequencies lol.
So far temps have stayed under the 80c threshold the highest so far has been 77c during Valley benchmark with fan speed at 67% (at 79c i have the fan curve set to jump the fanspeed to 73% ..which hasnt happend yet), which happens to be the bench program i have that causes the most heat atm. Even with my 560ti.
 
Anyway..thumbs up :)
EDIT: ASIC value 87.9%

hello, I need some help about the EVGA GTX 780, my motherboard works with PCIexpress 2.0 and the GTX 780 is PCIexpress 3.0, so how much performance could I lose? or maybe is better to upgrade the motherboard? thanks

Don't upgrade. Make sure your PSU is big enough though.
The difference between PCI-e 2.0 & 3.0 performance is nominal.

Ordered 2 hydrocoppers for the 780's

 
Me too right behind you but for some reason I could not order using FIREFOX it kept skipping my payment information and going to address information so I had to use CHROME to make it work..

I know what your saying, I tried ordering 2 probe-its today and had a hell of a time!
