Hey guys! i'm new here but i've been an evga gpu owner for ever.. never used anything else, why change brand when it works flawlessly ? :D. So like many here i'm trying to get my hands on a titan x sc. I see that some of you have been able to get your hands on the card but it seems i cannot order.. Since i'm a canadian customer i have no choice but to buy straight from evga since ncix and newegg canada don't even list or have no way to tell when they're going to get stock. My question is, did i miss something when i can order even though it's B/O or i really have to wait until they have stock (evga store) so i can order ? thanks!.

I doubt you will lose any performance for buying something like the Titan doesn't really matter which manufacture're.

You can order them from NCIX, but the mark-up is just silly. It's cheaper for us Canadians to import it ourselves from the US, and save $80.
You can wait for the EVGA store to get stock, or order from Amazon.com and it will be cheaper than NCIX. You could alternatively wait and see what Newegg.ca charges, if they ever decide to list it for us unworthy Canadians that don't deserve their Grade A US service.

as Canadian I don't like the $80US for ups shipping it like $40 to high for me. back when it was fed ex it was like $30 bucks is a lot better. Form EVGA store.

Have you canadians looked into drop shipping companies based in the US? I see that a lot for stuff going to south america or asia. Smokey the Bear
Amazon charges $25 for 1-3 day shipping. EVGA charges $35.
Amazon ships probably 25% of UPS's volume of packages on any given day. They get the steepest bulk discounts possible. EVGA is nothing in comparison.

According to EVGATech_ChrisB: EVGATech_ChrisB
If you do not use over the internal 12GB of VRam then you should not necessarily see a problem. However if you do use over 12GB of VRam, which will not be easy at this time, then your system will be looking for 12GB of internal memory for a swap file.
Please understand that we are just relaying the recommended minimum requirements that Nvidia has available for this product.

Yup, spoke with someone from NVidia. Here's what they had to say: "GeForce GTX Titan X is itself a 12 GB card. So minimum amount of RAM required to support this card is 24 GB. If you have lesser amount of RAM, the card will still run but the entire GPU memory will not get utilized.It will get limited to 4 GB or lesser amount.We received some users who had less than 24 GB of RAM installed and the PC was showing up VRAM only as 4 GB. The OS will limit the VRAM if the system RAM is less than 24 GB. So as a result, it will be of no use having a 12 GB card installed in the machine. The system RAM will not be able to support 12 GB VRAM. And it will yield only 4 GB VRAM as available dedicated graphics memory. Since you are going to get such a powerful card with 12 GB VRAM, it will be of no use running it on 8 GB ( however, 8GB is really a good amount for other NVIDIA cards). So best is to get the RAM upgraded and enjoy the performance of the card." All 3 times I was told the same thing.

I have a Titan X SC and I have 16GB of RAM and I ran Shadows of Mordor with the HD texture pack and everything on ultra, it used 6+ GB of VRAM just fine as far as I can tell (based on Precision X)

I believe you, I will not look card with less than 6GB memory. I should prepare rig for Windows 10 and DX12 and no time for changing every year. Until second or third generation of Pascal... Off course I will not need 12GB, but I can't delete 4GB and no 6GB option. Even 6GB would be risk and I would think about that. AMD is crazy if launch R9-390X with 4GB with similar performance as TITAN X, people will use their cards much longer than NVIDIA because they stay on same architecture 2 years. If I think better NVIDIA really no reason to launch 6GB version at all. Why? Except if AMD become real danger for them and than just to offer something cheaper and people with 1440p monitors will for one year again to think about video memory, even with 6GB. Now 4GB is 6GB for one year but usage can't pass easy over 8GB, special because and console PS4 have 8GB version and no new version soon.

If that is the case than anyone not running the 64 bit version of at least Windows 7 Professional is out of luck regardless since even 64 bit Win7 Home Premium only recognizes 16gb system memory. Ouch.

I'm idiot, guy call me to to ask me if I want to buy GSkill 2666 8x4GB red kit for 320e I say No, it's not good color and not QVL number. I'm for mental hospital sometimes. Because of that I will have only 16GB in color I want for 50e less only. Even I almost laugh because I don't need 32GB and now rigs need so much memory because video cards.

Not to mention if you're running an SFF rig such as myself with an itx motherboard that only has 2 RAM slots (do they even make 2 x 12GB DDR3 kits?). But what is the case, really? I have an EVGAtech say one thing and supposedly some Nvidia rep say another. I'm more inclined to believe it coming from the horses mouth, but everyone with 16GB of RAM has not run into any issues going over 4GB VRAM as far as I'm aware. Some clarification would be appreciated at this point.

Honestly I'm so sick of this bull. I'm in the same boat as everyone else, everyone is saying something different. I know of multiple videos where the guy plays perfectly fine with 16GB RAM and the card hits 6-7GB VRAM. Don't know who to believe anymore.

Does it have to be a game? I know EVGA OC Scanner X will load up 5.5 GB VRAM to test, which it does so on my card without any problem.

Holy crap. I want to get the Titan X but it'll be an additional $500 to get a 32GB RAM + a new OS since my "home premium" isn't going to cut it.

ok i tried to do that, it sees 12288 but it says not enough GPU memory for fur test and only uses 4150. it then makes my system unstable if i keep running that test over and over, it keeps making my system RAM usage higher and higher until windows 8.1 says i've run out of memory and it wants to close things....

Hmm, alright well that could be anything (program issue, Win 8.1. issue, etc.) . Until I get more people chime in I'm not going to worry about it too much. You said you were playing Shadow of Mordor using 6+ GB VRAM just fine, and I've seen others do so as well so that's what I'm sticking with until I get concrete evidence stating/showing otherwise.

well i'm just going to order another 16 GB, what's another ~150 now...if that doesn't fix it I can just return the RAM. PS. I did a fresh reboot, with minimal things loaded, same issue. In fact this time OC Scanner couldn't even load the test, it stalled when Windows "ran out of memory". (as a note windows is throwing up that error/instability at only between 9GB and 9.9GB used I've never seen it reach 10+ GB used in this testing situation (and i have 16 currently) So keeping my RAM order. Should have it in 2 days, will update when I have it. Or if something else happens, any ideas?

The quick install placard that is in the box for the Titan X states 2 GB memory minimum, 4 GB recommended, so this is interesting... I have 16 GB of RAM in my system and my card utilizes all 12 GB of VRAM. OC Scanner X will only utilize 6004 MB of VRAM for me in the 3072 MB test with any resolution/AA... I believe this is a program limitation itself though.

odd that mine is unstable for that test and not yours, perhaps there's something else going on with my system specifically...I've never had anything cause it to run out of memory before.

The quick install placard that is in the box for the Titan X states 2 GB memory minimum, 4 GB recommended, so this is interesting...
I have 16 GB of RAM in my system and my card utilizes all 12 GB of VRAM. OC Scanner X will only utilize 6004 MB of VRAM for me in the 3072 MB test with any resolution/AA... I believe this is a program limitation itself though.
The main issue brought up was that the card was said to be limited to only 4GB VRAM according to TonyMartinStark's earlier post if the user has less than 24Gb of system RAM, which does not seem to be playing out thus far.
