EVGA GTX 780 Ti Classified 3 GB

[Vlada011]

Excellent card.
I will upgrade 100% on Ti only to wait new GTX780Ti KP Classified. 2-3 weeks more until became available in Europe.
If EVGA allow physical overpass voltage limit with mod that would be incredible move and deserved money. First year I will not mod, than maybe.

GIGABYTE GHz Edition on 2-3 reviews no 50MHz space for OC over fabric boost. That's obvious, they OC card on 1085MHz and choose 40-50% of GK110 who can boost stable with that clock and that's it.

On another note: no backplate? here in Denmark it costs 6000 Dkr which equates to appr. 800€. Shopping such an expensive card and not providing a backplate is in my eyes an affront.

I agree

Yush another one found wanting of a w1zzard review of this seemingly amazing card. Oh and thanks again w1zzard for having spend time contacting gigabyte

What would a backplate bring to the game?

I think backplates are utterly overrated, especially because they yield 0 gains.

Could have made sense on Titan since it has VRAM chips on its back of the PCB but on a card like this? Just clutter.

Remember guys, you are comparing this card to other "normal" cards and by doing that you are mistaken.

Let me explain myself: this isn't aimed at people who run their graphics inside a case, this is an enthusiast overclocking card which brings voltage control over 1.212v which is impossible to achieve with any other GTX 780ti on the market and this feat by itself brings this card on another league.

Yes GTX780Ti is really expensive compare to GTX780, for such difference they could sell card with backplate but I understand and EVGA.
Many their fans buy 3-4 cards and use one backplate... I don't like to touch with hands parts on backside of card...
This review help me to survive price difference between GTX780 and GTX780Ti Classified. I mean 9-40fps difference if I saw nice on 1920x1080...

Wait till you see the KingPin Edition...

http://www.overclock.net/t/1459307/official-evga-780-ti-classified-k-ngp-n-owners-club

Notably:

1072/1137 base/boost clocks
Unlocked TDP BIOS as standard
Standard (ASIC dependant) stock max boost 1254-1300Mhz (i.e - without overclocking).

From the readings via KingPin, the card is not just a highly binned Classy. Apparently his core clocks of 1800+ were achieved without mods. These are his responses to 3 'alleged' problems with 'his' edition Classy.

I sell mine GTX780 Classified too immediately when I saw price of GTX780TI KP Classified.
Like I say price difference will be 300e probably for 20-25% but worth.
For me is that important high boost for games...
Card colors will fit with my motherboard and other hardware excellent.

Enhanced bios with aggressive stock clocks..

Great I like that BIOS and clocks, if KP Edition is too expensive for me I can order GTX780Ti Classified.
First too se what KP offer. 100% Samsung Memory.

Only voltage option is terrible. 1300v should be minimum in software as Precision.
That's fact and R9-290X Lightening will be stronger than any Ti except some with voltage no limit.

Card is INCREDIBLE, I don't know what I wait any more... Maybe is best way and I to buy same model...
I hope EVGA will soon to present us price of Kingpin Edition to decide...
I propose to guy who import cards to order two KP Classified, one for me and one for him and than we can try SLI.
We will see, this card Is excellent too, I would not complain to have one.
And better BIOS is available for owners.

The price will be around 850$-900$ .

Do you going to use water cooling for your 780ti KINGPIN?

...

Air? Water? Clocks? Fan Speeds? Room Temp? Card Temp?

They do not.

Heaven/Valley does not report GPU max boost core clock correctly.

There is no room temp listed.

There is no max GPU temp listed.

There is no max GPU temp listed.

There is no boost because the bios is custom.
In the pictures you can see the correct clock. 1484/8270 for single and 1404/8200 for SLI.
Temps is 55C max under water.
3dmark report correctly to. 1475 MHz (single card) and 1,395 MHz (SLI) .
Check the links.

Saw your post on OCN. Very nice clocks. I'm assuming you needed to bump the voltage a bit. I'd love to get one of these, but would not be on water and I don't think I could handle the ACX's nasty fans @ such high RPM as would be necessary for high clocks.

Room temp doesn't matter to me cause I'd be comparing to air, but it might to someone else on water.

i need 1.43 v for this clock. This is not possible with air cooler . ACX isn't the best cooler and this GPU can be realy hot after 1.3 v .
Inno3D GeForce GTX 780Ti iChill OC might be a good choice for high clocks on air.
