If anyone ever gets, or knows someone who has/buys a GTX Titan, see if they can do a run with MediaCoder's CUDA encoding. I am curious as to how having 2688 CUDA cores stacks up against the 680 (1536 cores) and the 690 (2x1536, although I'm not sure how SLI factors into this).
I seriously wish I had $1400 (**** Australia Tax putting that extra $400 in) for this card...

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.

Re: GTX Titan is out...
Matey - i recently upgraded from a gts250 to a gtx650....
3 times the number of cores....
bugger all difference in speed.....if anything its marginally slower
adding insult - the gts250 was about 50% utilised according to gpu-z....
the 650 is 70% utulised....
i don't think mediacoder will take advantage of having more cores
there may be other factors at play, but various posts around the internets have net me little response....
hope no one wastes their money like i did....(albeit the gtx was only $130 and is quieter)

Re: GTX Titan is out...
I have a GTX650 too got it for $50, brand-new, off someone who got it as an unwanted gift.
Shame that MediaCoder doesn't utilise the extra power. I wonder if all CUDA is like or it's just MC?

Re: GTX Titan is out...
Matey -
Wish it were otherwise....but i have tried them all - free,paid - you name it....
They mostly all disappoint - especially the paid ones - the quality is woeful,
and the encode times are a joke.
The one that Nvidia used to sell is particularly bad....
Mediacoder and one other make the grade as far as i am concerned - won't mention it here,
but it's also "free" and you can "make" pretty good encodes with it
I took the GTS250 and put it in the kids dual core e6750 machine -and guess what?
using mediacoder and cuda, this ageing setup equalled the speed of my newer setup.....
that has 3 times the number of CPU and GPU cores....

Re: GTX Titan is out...
Strange... Then, how does one increase the speed at which CUDA encodes?

Matey - Tell me and we'll both know!
