Did a bit more testing, had to back off my overclock TDP since temps were high, and I found that K14x16 seems to be the optimum config so far for my 670 FTWs. 630-640 kh/s range combined on my 2 cards.

"Also be sure the card is not configured for double precision computation (it makes it slower for single precision work loads)"
In the startup it say: single-alloc: 1 is that what you are referring to?

I found a blurb on the net about the single/double switching feature (I don't have it on GTX 780Ti, so this is hearsay):
Quote
Double precision wise, to unlock full performance you must open the NVIDIA Control Panel, navigate to “Manage 3D Settings”. In the Global Settings box you will find an option titled “CUDA – Double Precision”, but... GeForce GTX Titan runs at reduced clock speeds when full double-precision is enabled. Still a great option if you are working on CUDA applications.

Hi!

It seems cudaminer doesn't shutdown all worker threads.

Code:
workio thread dead, waiting for workers...
and cudaminer doesn't terminate. So the script can't switch over to the next pool.It seems cudaminer doesn't shutdown all worker threads.
This would be a bug related to stratum. Does it terminate when you try the getwork protocol?

Hehe but I just love to talk about STD's 
T14x24 = 465-470KH/s.
Everytime I do an auto tune I get like 900-1050KH/s reported lol... like everytime...
I have tried on multiple titans and dont get much more than 480KH/s

Hey Christian,
Is there somewhere we can talk about my Titans?

We're not talking about an STD, drugs, or an extra kinky fetish so I guess we can talk _right here_.

Before using 12-10 I was getting 465-475KH/s per Titan, using config T112x4
With the 12-18 on Auto it was showing 1040KH/s during the config but then started mining and is only 440-450KH/s.
If I use my T112x4 it goes up to 470-480KH/s.
My whole config is:
-i 0 -m 1 -H 2 -l auto
Also when it starts its says: GTX TITAN with compute capability 3.5 - Is this correct?
Any ideas?

if I use -l T15x24 with good results on 780Ti with 15 SMX you should be able to use -l T14x24 on the Titan. I believe it has 14 SMX enabled, whereas the GTX 780 has 12 SMX.
Also be sure the card is not configured for double precision computation (it makes it slower for single precision work loads)
I also had that one bizarre autotune result with 1000 kHash/s, but that was too good to be true... and in fact it wasn't working for me either.

I'm a little more worried about the person who said his Titan isn't running any faster.
Did the module get properly compiled for architecture sm_35?
My OC 780Ti went from 480 kHash/s stable to 560 kHash/s stable. Using x86 Windows binary, and using the Titan kernel of course. I think I had to autotune again and try a few different settings. The one I use now was posted a little earlier.
In a non-verclocked Linux based mining rig my 780Ti went from ~430 kHash/s stable to around 500 kHash/s stable. Sweet. Would someone know how to OC a card on Ubuntu 12.04 without running an x-server on the card? nvidia-smi isn't helpful and other tools refuse to run if the nVidia is not the display card. Meh.

Wow, what an update! Two EVGA 770's with 4GB ram each, went from ~440 KH/s combined to ~580 KH/s
cudaminer.exe -H 1 -d 0,1 -i 0 -l K12x17
I use evga's precision control to drop the power target to 80% to keep the cards at about 73C to avoid system crashes.
Thanks for the hard work!

Do you enter this launch config with an upper-case K ? lower case won't work...

oops......probably, its the wife's machine, I forgot about that.
On the 2x680's I'm still getting the same 'cudaminer has stopped working' if I try any config except auto or k8x24.
Auto tells me 20x12 should be best, but manually entering that just crashes.

Looks like my GTX580 doesn't like the latest build (both x64 and x86). For some reason the core temperature increases with ~8 degrees, while performing slightly slower. GPU load is 99% all the time.
Just to be clear, the GTX 580 is a compute 2.0 device ("Fermi"), not a Kepler, so what you're seeing may be something else. Is the change, for example, due to moving the other hashing from the CPU to the GPU? (is your CPU now almost completely idle when it wasn't before?)
I'm a little more worried about the person who said his Titan isn't running any faster.

What config are you using and what speed are you getting on a single card?
December 18, 2013, 09:07:01 AM
Oh and also auto with debug on seems to fail a ton on the 670 now, gives some 1&jhash /similar error config then starts hashing at <20khs. Without debug it's a really low config like 2x1 6x4 or similar, which also sucks.
December 18, 2013, 08:26:37 AM
I haven't seen any increase with my Titans
Infact the auto goes slower than my old config...
But using my config it goes the same speed...

Mines the same performance wise, although running hotter the same as yours. Major improvement on an 670 I tried on though, best previous was 230ish, now it's at 330-350! With above mentioned 14x14 conf, can't remember the previous one.
