Speculation? Did you even search for any reviews before saying that? This review has been up for a week.

Bit-tech is one of the most trusted review sites and still uses Skyrim as a benchmarking tool for GPUs. I've been reading their reviews on every GPU for the last 2-3 years for Skyrim and I can say that they've never been wrong.

As far as I know, Ocaholic and PCper still uses Skyrim too. Unfortunately they only used 1440P and not 4K.

I don't get it, why does the Titan X beat the 980 @1080p in all games but skyrim?

 

 

You mean why 980 performs better in 1080P Skyrim?

It's simple, game is not putting enough pressure on Titan X to use its full capacity. Basically GPU load was pretty low during that test.

How much better do you think the Titan X is compared to the 980 with a modded game @1080p or even 1440p?

(Assuming its possible to ballpark it, without actually testing it)

1.5 times better, assuming they both work at the same clock speeds.

 

If you check the specs you'll understand why.

But honestly single 980 is enough for 1080P. At least for me. I wouldn't buy a Titan X for 1080P, maybe not even for 1440P.

Do you think its better to get SLI 980s, a Titan X, or wait for the 390x?

I am using a 7970 and 4790k right now at 1080p

Never mind you answered my question in your edit. =)

Found this for OP:

 

He is getting between 75-100FPS at Whiterun Skirts in Combat. Ultra + COT. We can safely say that you won't be able to get 60FPS at 4K with a heavy ENB :/ But like I said earlier if you don't mind dropping to 30FPS, it's kinda doable.

He said he's using 8x AA so I think you are right. Without AA, or lower AA at least, 30FPS should be manageable.
