Ask SONY.

I have ordered a Titan, dont have it yet.
I think the CUDA is going to be quite limited as a result of the clock speeds, but we will see.

I'd be curious to see your results on gpu encoding with the Titan. I went back to a 560ti after a 670 just didn't work with gpu encoding for me, and while I've been very happy with the 560ti as it gives me 4x faster encode times I wouldn't mind even more performance. I'm a bit skeptical that the Titan will be properly supported by Vegas but I guess we'll see.

Pete,

I just had a PC made to order which I'll connect this weekend. It also has a 560 TI. I'm curious to know what driver you're using. My OS will be Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

TIA,
Lou

I'm using Windows 8 64bit with the most current official NVidia driver 314.07.

I am no Pro but will do my best to offer a rendering comparison between the 680 I have and the Titan, when it arrives.

One thing that I have noticed in my reading up is the double precision compute power of the Titan.
I expect this needs to be adjusted in the Nvidia control panel prior to attempting rendering.
It slows the clock speed of the card down which gamers will not do, but I expect for applications like Vegas its the thing to do.
Link below, the interesting bit is in the paragraph with the heading 'I'm a cheap Tesla, then?'

Does Vegas use double precision for anything?

Most things don't need that many significant digits.

I've been keeping an eye on the Titan ever since I heard the compute capability was not crippled as it was on the 6xx series... However, to date I have not found a review that demonstrates Vegas render speeds and we may not get these numbers until the drivers mature. For instance, one review indicated that the Titan was not able to complete an Adobe CS6 benchmark because the drivers would not allow....

So, drivers are another thing... Has anyone used Vegas on a workstation that has a Tesla installed? K20X, etc?

GrantM: Don't forget to give us an update when your Titan arrives!

Various venders allow you to return GPUs without a restocking fee, so if anyone else has time to test the Titan the rest of the Vegas community thanks you.

At the moment I am overbooked, so I can't mess-up my systems. However, due to being overbooked, it would be nice to speed-up one of my slower systems without having to upgrade CPU/MB/RAM etc...

Rhino, will do, I'm still waiting, stock was supposed to be available for shipping 1 March but was not (at least for shipping to my country)
Got mail today saying they expecting it shortly.
I'm across the pond from where it all happens (in South Africa) so its difficult to get the new stuff straight out of the blocks so to speak.

Assuming stock is available during this week for shipping I expect delivery towards end of march only.

Paid already weeks ago :(

Does anyone know what the Titan equivalent will be in the Quadro series?
TheRhino wrote on 3/12/2013, 6:31 PM
The K6000 Quadro will be powered by GK110 GPU which powers the Titan and also the Tesla K20X. The big question we all want answered is whether or not Vegas will work with the drivers. Supposedly the Titan has powerful compute capability but if the drivers do not play nicely with Vegas, we won't be any farther ahead.
