Title: Nvidia 780 0r 780Ti
Post by: argileh on May 13, 2014, 08:21:20 PM

Which one would do better with FSX/P3D (with JeeHell)

The issue is that 780 comes with 4GB while 780 Ti has only 3GB but is faster.

thanks for your feedback.

I have a 780 which came with 3GB RAM.  Used it for a 3 projector, curved screen set-up in my sim.  Best GPU I've ever used and stuttering within FS X is 99% removed.  It's also very important to have a powerful CPU  (Core i7 4700) to run your sim...otherwise the GPU will always be waiting for data to arrive from the CPU.

A further note....if you are going to use the Surround View feature of this card, (3 Projector system) be very careful of the video drivers that you download. The latest Nvidia drivers are a disaster with Surround View....the 327 release drivers work just tine.
