2x Titan Z. Real nice.
I believe DS will change this to Hydrolux 3, being 2x video card, but they'll be in touch for any discrepancies. Titan Z is a dual gpu on single card. Best of luck and keep us posted. |

It varies but Stage 5 is the longest they run test after test on it for stability reasons. You are looking at around 13 to 15 days on your machine, trust me I know how hard it is to wait we all here do. BTW that system is pretty much going to dominate anything for the next 10 years or so. Congrats! If you have question about your build or issues let Alex know I added another video card to mine during the build it did cost me a rebuild fee but with the price tag on that machine I am sure you can afford it. |

@intronate67,
Looks like your order just went into Stage 4 today. It should be going into Stage 5 in the next 2-3 business days. All of the status update emails do include estimates however please note, since you have a high-end system, it may take extra time as we want to make sure everything is perfect. If your order falls behind estimations, feel free to email me at any time: [email protected] You have ordered one EPIC system . |

The width of the cards doesn't mean anything. It still only plugs into a single slot. I think the extra width on the Titan Z is for the cooling setup. Quad gpu is quad, 4 way sli.
Plus with the water block cooling as in the Hydrolux, it is 2 slot wide i believe. Just saying. . Edited by bprat22 - 09 Aug 2014 at 8:21am |
