Geforce GTX 980 or 980Ti for the Future?
-
Don’t you need a 4gb-6gb GPU to run extracted MFDs and TFTs (980 ti)? I read that somewhere recently, can’t remember where though.
Good day,

stop messing about - go TITAN !!!
Sadly for me the 980Ti wasn’t out when I bought my Titan X SLI setup. Unless there is a very specific reason for you to want 12 gigs of VRAM versus the 6 of the 980Ti their performance is almost identical yet their prices tags aren’t even close. Titan X is really e-peen between the two at this point. Even as a Titan X owner I cannot give them the nod over a 980Ti when you look at the cost differential.

Post the rest of your PC specs as well please.
Post framerate (in Red Dog’s AGM-65 training mission or Campaign) with TGP and WPN page in MFDs and displaying video on both as well please. That should be a good indicator of how good the 980Ti is in BMS 4.33 for anyone thinking of getting one.
Ok I am not sure if the AGM-65 TE in default 4.33 is Red Dog’s or not but I ran that one and with all up and running (the TE had inclement weather as another test of the system to boot) I was getting 38/50 FPS. All of my eye candy is turned on, trees and grass sliders full right, I toned down the NVidia CP settings to 8x AF and 4x AA. This is running windowed triple screen 6010x1080 with server/client mode MFDE handling the display extraction work. System specs are in my sig.

Hi,
i ordered this: ASUS STRIX-GTX970-DC2OC-4GD5, GeForce GTX 970, 4GB GDDR5
Report follows:D -
any possibilities of SLI with your motherboard? I have the 980 TI, but two 980’s cost a tad more then 1 980 Ti… and you will have even more Graphic processing power for this application, as well as many many others. Just an idea…

Pretty sure the falcon code cannot take advantage of video cards in SLI/crossfire.

I have
MSI Z170A motherboard
intel 6700K CPU
16 Gb ddr 4 @3000mhz
gtx 980TI 6gb gaming
4 x SSDdisc
34" curved screen @3440x1400 for falcon
20" for mfds helios and so on
18 for team speak and so onget over 200 fps in Falcon

I’m struggling with frame rates, so i’ll jump in here and hope for some help from others. I recently built a computer that i expected to completely SLAY FBMS.
i7-5820K @ 4.5
16 GB RAM @ 2800
BMS on an SSD
Sapphire 390x 8 GB
XFX 5450 (for my 2 external TFTs)
BMS display extraction on for MFDs only
Sim in windowed mode
EDIT: main screen 2560x1440, TFTs are at 800x600 each.With all shaders on, i was getting 17 FPS in the maverick TE – which is obviously a huge disappointment and doesn’t seem appropriate for these specs.
I’ve had to turn off all the eye-candy to get it running at 40 FPS. I tried turning off display extraction (thinking that maybe the 5450 was the problem, even if only driving the 2D screens), but i didn’t see much of a change.
Any ideas as to what is bottle-necking my performance?
Hi Harley
Im getting a consistent 24/25 fps on ingress & 20/22 in the valley on target, It did seem very smooth for 20fps . TGP & WPN active.
Thats on a i5 3570k @ 4.2max, 8gig @ 1600Mhz on a 32" 2560x1440 & 20" for MFDs RWR, DED, PFL FuelFlow, Gear & most important of all Speed Break (no it doesn’t beep……yet).
That’s all driven by a HD 7950 (R9 280) AF@16xHQ, AA 4xMS, Default Config, with Trees & Grass a tad above the lines.
Most important is that with 4.33 I had to ditch the BMS Display Extraction and get MFDE to work correctly.
The BMS version was costing at a min 22/25% while MFDE I lose only about 3%, It took some time to set it up but It now runs as smooth as the excellent BMS extractor.
Lets catch up on TS and I,ll help set it up if you like.
PS: I too have a HD 6850 for other monitors, it didn’t make any difference which card I used for the displays.

Why? Buying g a titan x is foolish when it will give very little over a 980ti but with almost double the cost…

Ohh I forgot the 1000w PSU and the Phanteks enthoo primo tower it is all liquid cooled just waiting for the bits to arrive for the GPU so that will be liquid as well

If I where u I wouldn’t get a plastic cpu block. I had one and cost me 2 vga’s and one MB.
And please tide up, what is that mess in there??? :rofl:
