becouse mixing 2 kits of ram even how similar they seem, you will have problem to make them work together.
the best is to do 1 kit of ram since they ahve been tested to work together and not giving you troubble.
and 16gig is more then enough realy, i have it and ive never used more then 6gig on MAX usage.

I know it's off topic but how do you like the SpinQ VT? I have one sitting in its box just waiting for the Maximus VI Impact to be released, but I'm curious to hear peoples experiences with the cooler since it got mixed reviews. I just had to have that look on the heatsink...

I saw it looking for cpu heatsinks in PC components webpages and saw it. I read some reviews but mainly to see more pics. When I unboxed it I though it was too big (the size of a fist maybe little bit more). It fits just in the place between the ram and the socket.
When you put on for the first time and see how its glow you will be amazed. If you want a critic about it, maybe the cable that connects to the MB is very uncomfortable. I've seen a guide to hide it over the fan. You can adjust the intensity with the screw thread and at the maximum makes some noise.
I'm getting around 39º in normal use and between 44º and 48º (I've to confirm this) playing BF3, Simcity or SC2.
To be honest i'm thinking about buying a Corsair Hydro Series H110.If you want more info just PM me.

you should obviously sli your 670 for sure, I strongly feel that will outperform a titan if not be equal. 670s are great cards and 2 of them are a force to be reckoned with! 1 titan is not cost effective and will be much more expensive. Double your gaming horsepower for $350 with another 670 and call it a day!

Thanks a lot - Yeah it was bigger than i thought when first unboxing it. Just nice to hear some user comments rather than the regular reviewers. An AOI solution is not for me because i need the turbulence of a fan to cool the Mobo due to the way the my case is constructed. Anyway thanks - was helpful

Are you sure about this ^^^, Masterbobo? The Titans are real beasts, so powerful that haven't meet yet before...
If you have the budget for one, definitely get a Titan! When you use 2x GTX670s, the performance won't be double of one... but they will consume a lot juice and will produce a lot of heat...

would get a 780 before a titan since its only 10% diffrence in performance.
but since this tread is "old" i guess you have bought a card now.
and since you stated your only gona use 1 monitor you dont need that mutch ram on the card.

I haven't purchased the card yet. I keep shuffling possibilities. What about using the TITAN as main graphics card and the GTX670 for PhisX setting it in Nvidia Control panel using a SLI? I read that is no longer required to use the same GPUs to make that. It's that a possibility? Will I get better performance than just the TITAN alone?
Right now, the second GTX670 wins the TITAN for 70% vs 30%. If its possible the SLI I will seriously reconsider the possibility of changing my mind.
