mumboking Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Hmm... What's this? Unfortunately, Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't have the drivers available in the repositories. I could use a different way of installing them, but I don't want to do it those ways. The funny thing is, it performs way worse with the 970 than with the on board graphics, at least without the NVidia drivers installed. The reason for that is because there's no 3D acceleration with the open source drivers it's using. Sorry about the image size... I wish we had a way of resizing them. Some other forum I use can do this: [img width=X height=Y]Image link here Edited May 7, 2015 by mumboking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaelstromIslander Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 So is this one of those massive servers you put in your desk or is it just a graphics card with a really big box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumboking Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 So is this one of those massive servers you put in your desk or is it just a graphics card with a really big box? The second one. It's got to protect the card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUDZ Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Very nice. Despite all of the naysayers complaining about the last 0.5 GB being much slower than the other 3.5, this is a very good card.I'm currently nickel and dimeing to get a 750ti for cheap to throw in my desktop. Yeah, I finally got a desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 By Jove that's spiffing, welcome to the club you lucky Brit! I have the same card by a different manufacture. Games play sooo smoothly. If you want to really push its limits and own Minecraft, try installing the shaders mod; it's what I used in this video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
