R u joking.how can u connect 3 gfx cards

 

[sashijoseph]

If you read the motherboard review,it says 3-way SLI is supported.

 

[xbonez]

but u wouldn't need 3 of them.....if u have a lot of money, go for 2. with that u can play crysis etc. at ultra high. later when the 9xxx series comes out, go for it

 

[GeekyBoy]

Don't go for 8800GTX, instead go for 8800GT. It is price is half of the 8800gtx's price and the performance decreases by only a small margin.Pair two 8800GTs in Sli mode and you can enjoy almost every game with full eye candy at max resolutions.

 

[Pathik]

I wd say get just a 8800gt right now.
Then get the g96 or g100 gpus in q1 2008.

 

[BloodReaper]

If you have been living lately you woulda known that nforce 7 has been released.
The motherboard that i am buying supports 3 way SLI. but the SLI bridge only supports 8800GTX or 8800 Ultra

 

[codename_romeo]

hmm.... someone is gonna have one hell of a gaming rig

 

[xbonez]

^^its gonna be an overkill...he's throwing money

 

[MetalheadGautham]

^^its gonna be an overkill...he's throwing money

It need not be only a gaming rig. What if he is into making money with somehting like Maya?

Such a rig can have non-useless use too.

 

[xbonez]

even Maya, 3ds Max and other gfx intensive applications don't need 3 8800GTXs....maybe 2 at the most. 3 is definitely an overkill....think of the money he'll be spending on the PSU...what'll he take? 1kilowatt?

 

[BloodReaper]

ok here is an update
after much consideration i have decided to buy only 2 GTX

and by the way i have a 1050 watt power supply so no probs with the power

I was reading the reviews of the processor I am taking. Its the latest QX9650 quad core extreme (45 nm one). I came accross a review in which guys clamis to have overcloked this thing to 4.6 Ghz. The stock speed is 3.0 Ghz


also I am getting liquid cooling complimentry with the cabby

 

[BULLZI]

waooo atleast that boy has a decent competitor.... which boy?? i cant remember his id nor the thread.
@xbonez do u remember that boy who was trying to find out who amongst us has the most expensive gfx card. He posted himself 1st as 8800GTX.
i cant remeber the thread.


update :

thats a supercomputer thingy, not a vanilla edition .
would u mind if i ask u Bloodreaper wht will be the purpose of that beast?? or its just ur wish to have such a monster?

 

[BloodReaper]

also each box of EVGA 8800 GTX comes with a free copy of Crysis

by the way did i mention ill be using this 'rig' for chatting and drawing on paint


just kidding

hehe lol.

FYI....

the Crysis game is also free with EVGA 8800GTS 512 MB model.

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

ok,nice cool.Are you by any means any ambani ot tata or birla?

And I waited for 4 months to get a 8600gt.

I would suggest you get a simple 8800gt\gts for now and get the ultimate big daddy 9800gtx in april or so,I assure you it will cost a bomb in the beginning(some 700-800$ they are saying).Buying a 8800gtx is useless now.

 

[dOm1naTOr]

Does it support 2 way SLI with other cards like 8800GT?
Coz it SLI 8800GTx2 makes more sense as the limitation of memory bandwidth is minimised due to the effective 2x256bit 1GB meory.
And also GT needs much less power than GTX, so even 2x 8800GT in SLI can be handled by a gud 600W PSU like Corsair HX 620.

Or get 2x8800GTS 512MB for 17k or 2x8800GTS 1GB for 21k.
Even a single 8800GTS 1GB is better than 8800GTX, so GTSx2 will easily beat 2xGTX, nd also consumes much less power nd heat, bo better overclockability.

yeah, i remember. he had an 8800GTX xtreme 768mb for 39k. but ambar beat him with an ASUS Aquatank 42k. it was in the gfx card thread

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^i thought ambar was just joking!

From where did u get those prices of the 8800GTS 512 MB and 1 GB versions??
Please let me know coz I wanna buy 2 of the GTSs. I am getting the mobo XFX 780I SLI probably from NEWEGG @ $320. I rejected EVGA due to customer support unavailability in India.
If I get the GTSs at those prices, I may get themfrom India, otherwise again from NEWEGG.
