I've never seen the price this low. I believe it will not get any cheaper in the near future. That is why I got two.

Ditto & why I got 4 of them, gonna try & sell off a few of the older NVIDIA's I have & get a more Balance GPU Setup. Thing I'm worried about is AMAZON coming back & saying it was a Price Misprint, their about $100 Cheaper than anybody else right now ... :cool:

Amazon's price was a price match for a Newegg special which quickly went OOS. AKAIK the price is legit. Wish I could have grabbed one for me but after just replacing a major appliance there's no fun tickets left for toys.:(

[DrPop]

well i pulled the trigger i am now an owner of a 7970 =P~ WOOT... anyone got a sofa i can sleep on for a few days cause i have a feeling the wife gonna kick my ass when this thing shows up X_X

Lol! :D haha...you may just have to be like "I'm testing this card for my buddy, he can't get it to work in his rig" or something. :D haha...just kidding.

@JPM - I totally thought your post was serious for 1.5 seconds....then I read the fine print. Man that was a good one! ;)

No problem Mike, it's a little less than what I have them listed on AMAZON for so I can cut the Price a little because AMAZON won't be taking their Commission ...

[nanoprobe]

Amazon now has them listed for $332 plus a $20 MIR. Recheck the site for the rebate info if you haven't already.

No I have that, the Problem is at the Diamond Site there's no way to enter a Model #, you have to select from a list of Model #'s and the one for the 7979 isn't listed, not that I can see anyway. Can't send the Rebate in anyway until you get the Cards because you need the UPC from the Box, possible there's a different Model # listed on the Box ? ...

I got to here (http://rebategroup.com/AF_ati_custrebate.php) but could find no promotion code on the Amazon site. Maybe it comes with the card.

[zombie67]

It would seem that eventually, most fans go bad on these AMD reference designs. But it usually takes a couple years, and you can always replace them. And also, by then, you are on to bigger and better GPUs anyway.

I have been a diamond owner since the S3 trio days and have always had good dealings with them.. all my ati/amd cards are from Diamond except the 4850x2 from saphire, only had to send one off due to the fan going bad that was the x800xl, usually turn arround on warranty 2-3 weeks, dont forget these have a 5 year warranty on the cards not to many folks are doing that anymore. Your milage may differ i dont ever push the overclocks to high and tipically never push the fans beyond 50% but thats just me.

Thanks for the reply. This card will not be in a case so I'm not expecting any heat issues. I usually run things at stock because my electric bill is already pretty ugly. :D

I have a Diamond 5870 that i bought when those cards first came out, however long ago that was. I have overclocked it up to 984MHz continuously for weeks without adjusting voltage, and even had it crammed into a mini tower case (with modifications to the case of course) with questionable airflow and it never let me down. They just seem to make some good quality equipment and then sit there quietly as they sell. In my experience, Diamond is good stuff.

If you are interested in a Mid-Tower case then JPM's link above includes the Fractal Design's Arc Midi - $69.99. Very nice case with lots of space inside and fan mount points that accept 140mm fans. 140's can be much quieter than 120's at the same CFM rate. And yes I have one of these cases :D

There is a 5870 on ebay for $115 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/ATI-Radeon-HD-5870-1-GB-PCI-Express-/120997048602?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item1c2bfc711a). This is the lowest price I have seen for a 5870.

I hope that was you that grabbed it. ;) Also a bump for Steve's gpus. Guys if you need an addition make Steve a offer. =P~

My 7970 came in yesterday. Only got to play with it for an little while. I can't believe how poorly this card does on POEM. My 5870 beats it easily with the same settings. On the other hand it does a Milkyway task in 43 seconds.
Was also surprised at the lack of any type of manual included. The included disc was useless and way out of date. You know there's a problem when the disc GUI has a PhenomX4 prominently displayed. Then when I tried to register the card on the DMM website all I got were error messages. OK, I'm done ranting but I'm pretty disappointed so far. Hopefully I can tweak it for better POEM results.

I read that the card is a monster on Donate and on DiRT. Donate is the money behind GPUGrid. I can't wait to play with it.

The included disc *always* has out of date drivers on it. 100% of the time, whether AMD or Nvidia based, regardless of brand. Personally i never use the discs. Just stick the card in, turn on the puter, and download. Far simpler to me since you have to do that anyway.

I know the discs are pretty much useles. I just thought there might be something on there that could be used.

Considering how many of those were ordered by this team, to only have 1 fail isn't bad at all. I still say Diamond is a quality brand. The members of this forum have seen far more EVGA products fail and no one is trashing them :p

Did you do anything other than crank up the clock to 1125? Any voltage or memory clock changes?

[Mike029]

No, nothing other than to bury the needle on core clocks and lower the Mem. clocks on Afterburner. I'm now on Donate because I can't get Boinc to run my 7970 and 5870 in the same box, on different projects. :confused: I wanted to run the 7970 on DiRT and the 5870 on Poem. A shout out to Matt. He spent an hour on Skype with me trying to get it to work. but no go. Here is the link about the inability of Boinc to run two AMD gpus. http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=7796

I'm running 2 wu's on Donate for each gpu. I'm prob. going to have to pull out the 5870 and just run the 7970 on DiRT. :( Just going to wait till tomorrow or Thursday till i get some time.

I think I just ran into the same problem with my 560 Ti x2. I tried to make GPU 0 do POEM only, and GPU 1 do Albert only (because POEM will work on only GPU 0 for some reason that they won't address). FAIL.

Update... sniff sniff.. Well had my friends brother go to the store only to find out they couldnt sell em cause they were already sold. Wasnt fast enough

[STE\/E]

Out of Stock at Detroit/Madison Heights Micro Center ... Same here, the nearest Micron Store is about 80 Miles from me, I figured they'd be sold out before I got there ... :rolleyes:

[coronicus]

aye, the brother said the store had actually sold all its stock online before it opened today so im assuming that happened to all the stores. I though it was instore only, oh well... maybe next time.

Seems like a good Deal >>> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231487 ... 32 Gb's of 10666 Ram 4 x 8 Dimm's for $130 with a Promo Code for $20 off the $130. Wonder how much slower the 10666 Ram is than the 12800 Ram ???

[Fire$torm]

DDR3-1600 is 20% faster then DDR3-1333 but that is relative to CAS latency (Lower = faster). That is why RAM with higher CAS is cheaper.

Wikipedia on DDR3 ---> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDR3_SDRAM

[John P. Myers]

On the RAM STE\/E posted, just change the timings to 8-8-8-24, change voltage to 1.60V and it's the almost same thing. Or leave the timings alone and change it to 1600MHz at 1.65V. Easy work-around to save a few $$ :)

[STE\/E]

Probably a better Deal >>> G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C9Q-32GXM For $110 with Free Shipping 9-9-9 Timings CL @ 9 ... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231569

Other deals also listed. But stay away from New Corsair Hydro Series releases!!! Too many people are posting serious problems with the new coolers.

Example...

Item: Corsair Hydro Series H100i
Title: Disaster




Pros: Looked nice when I finally got it installed

Cons: Installed it last night after getting off of work. Looked great and seemed to be operating flawlessly. Woke up this morning and tried to wake my computer from sleep mode. It had power but for some reason my monitor wasn't detecting a video source. Opened up my case to diagnose the problem and.... yup, you guessed it.... found a nice radiant pool of green coolant all inside the case. One of the fixtures attached to the pump had popped right off.

Other Thoughts: Pretty sure I lost both 7850 video cards in my system. Not sure about the processor or any of my other components yet ( good thing I have a backup computer). Will have to wait till I get back from work tonight to assess the full extent of the damage. If you intended to install this unit into your rig, please double check the fixtures to make sure they're secure (don't look as nearly as secure as the old H100 fixtures, which I own). I would really hate to see this happen to anyone else. One of the perils of water cooling I suppose. Lesson learned ...the hard way.

One word of warning for the non-pro versions, TLC NAND is used. TLC has a much lower life expectancy then MLC NAND. Some say as little as 4 years (here (http://www.zdnet.com/blog/computers/ocz-to-slash-ssd-drive-prices-by-30-percent-in-2012-thanks-to-tlc-nand-flash-memory/6981) - 3rd paragraph)

Thanks Crazybob's Son. I will see about that.

And that's actually a good AMD X6 CPU, because it is only 95W - which is what most of their quad cores run. So less electricity costs than the bigger X6 CPUs even though it has the same amount of cache, and you should be able to O/C it a bit as well - easily as fast as a stock 1100T, maybe more depending on how good your mobo is. ;)

8GB free RAM with purchase of these motherboards: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&Depa=0&Description=PPSSMBPROMO418

Just to be sure, i did some checking and confirmed the RAM is 2 4GB modules, not 4 2GB modules which would fill up all your slots. This way you still have room to expand or to use the RAM you already have in addition to these. Also the speed on this free RAM is 1600MHz. Pretty decent :)

Brands of motherboards include BioStar, MSI, Gigabyte, Asus and ASRock. Price range is $80 to $430. Value of the free RAM alone is $61.

Well... good to see you can start to get close to or under MSRP again, even with a few hoops, but still not quite enough to bite. Keep posting though and I'll find the right deal someday Toto! Some day. I've been trying to wait to lay hands on a card with good DP precision so I can effectively run apps like MWay. My guess is I should keep waiting for a 7970GE with its 1/4 DP cut versus the 290 with its 1/8, if I can ever find a not-melted used one at a good price again.

Or, you know, buy Tank's Titan...

[John P. Myers]

As i've mentioned before, writing 10GB/day everyday won't kill these drives for 13.7 years. I have no problem with that. As a matter of fact, i just checked and i've only written 1.81TB to the drive since installing it the first week of december. It is the main drive on my 3770K Marshal with the 4 GPUs. My actual speeds with the 250GB version are 552MB/s read, 535MB/s write. So much for those other brands whose speeds drop off after a few weeks of use. 120GB version will be a bit slower. 500GB and up will be about equal.

True but reading from any NAND also chips away at it life. And all versions of Windows are notorious for the exorbitant number of reads and writes performed even for mundane background tasks. Atm, I cannot give you any I/O stats from my SSD, as my desktop is out of action, but I now it's a lot higher then yours.... :P

Speeds higher how? Only way to get any faster throughput than that is to get more than one and put them in RAID or get a PCIe SSD. Those speeds pretty much cap SATA 3 bandwidth.

No no no.... not speed. I was referring to usage as in reads and writes, to and from. I do a ton of streaming, photo editing, etc... And it all gets dumped on the SSD. Last month we almost hit Comcast's data cap of 250GB. And that's not too much higher then our average. Most of that activity is my doing. Yes I know my mini garden of crunchers accounts for some of that, but it's a relatively small percentage. Oh and btw, thankfully Comcast has had the data cap on my Uncle's account suspended for quite some time. #:-s

[John P. Myers]

F$...Please don't piss on my party...it's my first ssd. =))=))=))

Lol well like F$, i was against the TLC NAND they use in these SSDs as well. Just seemed like a really bad idea. But then a read up alot on it, waited til a bunch of people had owned them for awhile, and finally realized they're not that bad at all. Sure the longevity is lower (13.7 years on the EVO vs. 70.2 years on the Pro series which uses MLC), but i didn't care about this for 2 reasons: 1) SATA 3 is being replaced with something faster anyway, therefore new SSDs will be even faster and make all current SSDs obsolete, regardless of what kind of NAND they use. 2) 13.7 years is still far longer than the expected life of any hard drive and i've done just fine with those for the past 33 years since i got my first computer.

And really i wasn't much of a fan of MLC NAND when it came out either, since it had a much lower longevity than SLC. But i was won over on that too :p

In terms of credits/watt you can't beat the 750 Ti. Anyone have typical credits/day for the GTX 570? Expect 300k/day in Collatz/DiRT, 200k/day GPUGrid, or about 150k/day Primegrid from the 750 Ti at very low power use.

[Al]

My dual 570 system will do between 485k - 500k/day/card @ considerable higher power usage. This summer I'm really thinking about cleaning up the 570s and selling them and replacing them with something that draws a lot less power...the 750ti is in the running as a replacement.

So...Looking at the current deals on NewEgg and a couple items caught my eye. Started reading the discription though and I think I'll pass...

When telephone coming the music automatic cut over to telephone conversation condition. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2PY1TB4365)

This keyboard also comes with Backlit/Backlight LED Lights for using at night time, looks cool amazing. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA26R1P68039)

Both items are sold by First by ASIA, out of Hong Kong, and having visited a couple times I know there are individuals that know the English language better then I there. Still it was worth a chuckle to read through the descriptions.

[John P. Myers]

Ok...here is a deal for the gamers out there: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=0JC-0007-00009&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL082614&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL082614-_-EMC-082614-Index-_-LCDMonitors-_-0JC-0007-00009-L014A

I think i'm going to have to jump on it this time. Been on sale at this price before, but now they're throwing in a 250GB SSD. Anyone care to talk me out of it? :D

I've moved back to spinning disks for my dedicated crunchers. I frequently have several VMs, and I want to be able to allocate 120gb each*. And 512gb SSDs are just too expensive still.

*A couple projects in the past have set their minimum requirements to something stupid like 100gb of free space, and without it you can't get tasks.

[E-30]

i played with ssd hard drive on this computer but i hate it so i cant do any wu thats req over a gb of hd space so i may go back to my old fason hard drive again

[Fire$torm]

For my main desktop, I use the SSD for boot drive and for gaming. All my other storage is rotational. Best of both worlds. Our HTPC has a similar setup. SSD for Booting and XBMC. All the movies and music A/V files are on the HDD.

Is this still the best GPU performance per watt card? :confused: Thanks to anyone who knows! :)

[FourOh]

The new GTX 970 and GTX 980 have higher performance per watt, but if you factor in FLOPS/Watt/$$ this particular 750 Ti is a better (initial) deal by 2.5x to 3.5x.

I already have 2 750 Tis and I'm trying to add a 7970 to my fleet, but this may be too good to pass up!

[conf]

If you have enough place you may be right, but I have already 14 GPUs ( 11 running, 3 are in repair ) and my only place left would
be outside the cases with a PCIe-Expander (already ordered 2 of them) leaving the boxes open all the time.
I would look for a 290 instead of the 7970, they are so cheap now since the Nvidia 900 series came out.
Even a 290x costs 299,- Euro today. ( GTX970 355,- in Europe )

[John P. Myers]

290 and 290X are both worse at double precision than a 7970 or 280X by about 30%

Sent from my Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk Pro

[conf]

I know and thats why I dont wanted a 290x. But this is my Gaming PC and I want two 290x for crossfire.
Im going to buy a 4k Monitor this year and I think I will need them for playing all games with full resolution.
... besides 420$ is a nice price.

[DrPop]

So would a 750 Ti, at this lowered price point, be a good stop-gap video card to get while we're all waiting for them to bring out "big Maxwell"? :confused: Sorry, I've just been out of the loop all summer. Thanks for cluing me in.

[Shandia]

Huh?? What?? I'm so lost! lol I've never been more out of the loop than I am right now. I have it in my mind to wait another year for anything major. I guess I need to get caught back up on my tech just in case I have to start over from scratch with my farm.

I lucked out and picked up a Crucial 240gb SSD from Newegg for $89 earlier in the week. I ordered it and went back to look at the specs a second time and it was already sold out. Glad I got it when I did. I have 2 OCZ SSD's and they have both been replaced and 1 of them has been replaced twice. That is why I went with a different brand. The computer wouldn't boot from the drive and when I put it in anothe box it wouldn't even recognize it.

Newegg is extending a military discount to active and veteran service members, 10% off up to $20. They use a verification service which asks for your DOB, separation date, and an uploaded document for verification. Not sure if it's worth transmitting private documents for this discount; I'll leave that up to you. I sent a pdf of my Basic Individual Record which doesn't show my SSN and was verified in about 15 minutes.

Note: Newegg is offering an additional $30 savings when you spend $150 or more with Promo code CMPAYPAL30. You must pay with Paypal to get this discount. In theory this means you could purchase 2 of those SSDs for $159.98 and only pay $129.98 = $64.99 each.

[FourOh]

RANT ALERT: Newegg had some Mobile-only deals over the last week; I used one to buy an i7-4790k & motherboard. HOWEVER for some damn reason one cannot select "Will Call" from the mobile app. A long chat with customer service and I could not convince them to extend the mobile discount to a web promo code... but alas I am a sucker for a deal so I figured "what the heck" Newegg is shipping the items from IN MY CITY so it shouldn't take but a couple days.

Oh, but then Newegg does the unthinkable... using FedEx SmartPost to ship an item IN TOWN. So Monday morning Newegg ships the package via FedEx from Memphis. Tuesday morning the package is at a ground hub in North Mississippi. Wednesday morning the package is sent to the USPS back in Memphis. Now USPS indicates the package is at the post office in my zip code, but don't expect delivery til Friday. ~X(

Normally I wouldn't really care because I'd be doing my build on a weekend, but I need to have this thing up and running, programs installed and files restored by Saturday afternoon when my wife gets home from a trip. I'm (secretly) upgrading her home office PC b-)

Rant complete (for now)

[Al]

I hate SmartPost!

[c303a]

I ordered 2 different packages of cables from the Egg at the same time. They shipped both via Dumbpost on the same day. 1 got here on Friday. The other didn't get here until today. If you need anything fast you can't use their Newegg free shipping.

On the other hand I got a Crucial 240gb SSD on the 6th of this month and it failed. I sent it bac to the Egg and they are sending a new one via next day air so I should have it tomorrow.

[Mumps]

I'm not so sure I'd consider that a better situation than just taking a while to get to ya... Less than a month and you killed an SSD? Sheesh! :)

(Although, it's really impressive if you got it on the 6th of this month and it failed already. I'm still waiting to see that day myself...) :D

OK, I misspoke as usual. My foot is in my mouth again. I got it on the 6th of Nov. but I have the new one coming today thanks to the Egg. I hope this one lasts longer. Crucial said it was a trimming problem and I should power it up but not connect it to a SATA and let it just run for at least 24 hours. It is an MX 500 and the cure didn't work.

Hmmm, somehow I missed this post. Sorry.

Anyhoot I strongly recommend that you disable Windows Disk Defragmenter on any system using an SSD.
To disable the service, right-click My Computer and select Manage. In the new window's left column select "Services and Applications". Then in the center column, double-click "Services". Now search for Disk Defragmenter, right-click it and select "Properties". If the service is running press the Stop button to shut it down. Then click the drop down menu for Startup type and select disabled. Finally press the OK button. That's it.

And while the services window is still open, I'd suggest disabling the following services:
*Windows Firewall (If you are running a 3rd party software firewall)
*Windows Error Reporting Service (Totally useless service)

[c303a]

I have all of those items and you are right about a totally useless service.
