For me SMAA and Temporal AA has made MSAA useless, in fact, i haven´t used MSAA for years, its just way too demanding, and its quality over good SMAA or temporal AA is non-existant or marginal as its best.

GeForce GTX 1080 Ti gets overclocked to record 3GHz
New frequency record thanks to LN2 cooling and a modified PCB
Quote: | Records are meant to be broken, and when there is a new product on the market like the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, it can happen rather frequently. Consider that only a week ago renowned overclocker Kingpin pushed a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition graphics card to 2.5GHz. That was impressive, albeit comparatively pedestrian to the 3GHz overclock he just achieved on the same card.
Using LN2 cooling alone was not enough to bump the GPU up an additional 500MHz. To reach 3GHz (3,024MHz, to be precise), Kingpin modified the card's printed circuit board (PCB) so that he could bypass the voltage locks, WCCFTech reports. He then was able to go the extra distance.
At 3GHz, the card's pixel fillrate jumped to 229.3 GPixel/s and its texture fillrate hit 583.7 GTexel/s.
This is another testament to the high-end PCB featured on the Founders Edition variant. Of course, you won't see these kind of overclocks on air cooled or even water cooled cards. On air you're more likely to reach somewhere in the neighborhood of 2GHz, as we discovered first-hand. Cooling with water might yield slightly higher clocks, though nowhere near 3GHz.
Kingpin's overclock was a straight play for the frequency record, versus his previous overclock in which he set a 3DMark Time Spy record. His 3,024MHz mark now stands at the top among Pascal cards, having edged in front of the previous record holder, a GeForce GTX 1060 card that reached 3,012MHz. |

I would like to see actual gaming benchmarks for such extreme overclocking to see how much of a difference it really makes.

Anyone heard when the custom TI's will be out in Europe?
I decided against the founder's editions as I don't really trust the cooling in those.
I'll probably go for some of the 3 fan systems with the preclocks in ~1.7k
So far all the shops have very different estimated arrivals for these cards. (next week - end of next month)

Custom PCB doesn´t seem to bring any improvements to overclocking once again on Pascal, 1080Ti has pretty odd 60c treshold on first small downclock on the core, seems that even those custom cooled ones cannot keep steady clocks. Have now waterblock installed on my 1080TI FE and i can get solid 2050 core overclock and +400 mem without any drops (highest what i have seen is around 55C on my Predator 360 paired with highly overclocked 5820K, which hovers in full gaming load around 50C).

Yeah I've seen a lot of discussion about that, hybrid cooling (Water on the GPU, copper block on the VRAM.) seems preferred due to the way boost 3.0 is very finicky about temperature so maintaining that (And possibly raising power limit via Afterburner 4.4.0 / Rivatuner 7.0,0 beta which supports the Ti.) seems key to holding the 2 Ghz overclock fully stable.
A good air cooler can also work I suppose but dual slot takes a bit more space of course as does the even bigger triple slot designs and ambient temperature and overall cooling efficiency in the case are also important.
(It's not quite the AMD R9 290 with it's "stable" temperature target of 95 degrees but it does look like it will reach some 80 degrees on full load even with a higher fan profile which will mean boost 3.0 kicks in and throttles things a bit.)

I would not pay any extra on pascal cards with "extra uber SOC to the max" label, every card overclocks to around 2000mhz(ish) after that it is silicon lottery. Pascal boost is very odd, i can get my FE boost on stock clocks nearly 1900mhz on waterblock, its tied to thermals strictly and every card boosts different (no matter what the box says).

But there must be a difference... The founders use single fan design, and the custom ones are usually 2-4 fan designs (or water cooled) I can't imagine you could just take a founders edition, turn the oc to 2k and run it as fine as a custom 3 fan design on (also clocked to 2k). With all the auto declocks when some heat thresholds are reached etc.
<- never clocked GPUs.

The cooling is ofcourse better on the bigger heatsink designs, but don´t pay extra for "OC" label on those designs (like some Super overclocks edition). Also for the record, you cannot cool this 1080Ti with any air cooler below 60c (where first thermal downclock happens) unless you crank the fans to the max (Accelero Extreme cooler is just enough for 60c with silent operation, but that you need to install yourself).

Perhaps they sold all original Titan X pascal cards and decided just make new one since they can (titan X was for a long time out of stock).

I am confused.
Is this a "new" Titan XP based on 1080 Ti improvements? |
I think this is the full GP200 (Or was it GP100?) Pascal GPU chip as a Titan series card, meaning it's a Pscal GPU without any cuts.
IE it's the GPU chip used by the Quadro Pascal models albeit with GDDR5X memory instead of HBM2 though it's still really fast and unlike the Quadro it's suitable for things like gaming.
If it's like the Fury - FuryX difference it's about a 10 - 15% speed bump over the existing Titan X (pascal) GPU model, well at best result, real difference between those two is pretty slim but this could be different, we'll see.
(Probably beating the current 1080Ti stock models though that one might be clocked higher and third party models might allow for higher maintainable boost clock speeds without throttling.)
EDIT:
1080
GP104 chip, 7.2 billion transistors, 2560 cuda cores, 8 GB VRAM
Titan X (pascal) and the 1080 Ti
GP102 chip, 12 billion transistors, 3584 cuda cores, 11 GB VRAM (Well the Titan X has a full 12 GB.)
Titan Xp (pascal)
GP200 chip, 12 billion transistors, 3840 cuda cores, 12 GB VRAM
It's a fully enabled Pascal GPU chip.
But the Titan X (pascal) is sold for 1200 USD/Eur so I can see this costing even more or at least the same.

Any step-up programs for existing users?

since the clockspeeds are kinda low compared to the ti i expect the titan xp to have lots of oc potential
but just because you got a new job and have lots of money to spend -> imho its not reasonable to pay 1300 euros for a fucking gfx card (or 800 for the ti...)
