A Look At Triple-GPU Performance And Multi-GPU Scaling

It’s been quite a while since we’ve looked at triple-GPU Crossfire and SLI performance – or for that matter looking at GPU scaling in-depth. While NVIDIA in particular likes to promote multi-GPU configurations as a price-practical upgrade path, such configurations are still almost always the domain of the high-end gamer. At $700 we have the recently launched GeForce GTX 590 and Radeon HD 6990, dual-GPU cards whose existence is hedged on how well games will scale across multiple GPUs. Beyond that we move into the truly exotic: triple-GPU configurations using 3 single-GPU cards, and quad-GPU configurations using a pair of the aforementioned dual-GPU cards. If you have the money, NVIDIA and AMD will gladly sell you upwards of $1500 in video cards to maximize your gaming performance.

I just think is crazy the amount of money people spend on video cards for just a small percentage in performance.
I'm happy with my EVGA GeForce GTX 570, plenty of power to play all my games maxed at 1080p on my Samsung 46" lcd tv.

hoops5523d ago

I am currently running Two 5970's in Crossfire and could not be happier.

BeastlyRig5523d ago

3 screens? if not then wow..

hoops5523d ago

3 monitors. 24" each. Once you go 3 monitors or more. It's SO HARD to go back to gaming on one monitor or your HD TV. It spoils your ass I tell you LOL

ktr5523d ago

Lol, three 580s consume ~1200w of power...

PS360PCROCKS5523d ago

I have 2 560's and couldn't be happier. With the new beta drivers I get over 90FPS in 1080P in 3D on Crysis 2. i can max out Crysis, Warhead, Mafia 2 and Metro 2033 in 1080P and have no issues at all with framerates. I'm happy, maybe in 2 years I'll upgrade my CPU from the 2500K to one of the new ones and get the more PCI-e lanes and get a 590 or something or whatever's the best.

I can max Crysis 2 at 1920 x 1080 in 3d with a single 570, it is not a very demanding game.

I can't max mafia 2 in 3d though, but it still looks sweet on a combination of medium/high settings.

Just cause 2 and dead rising 2 look amazing in 3d, I suggest you try them if you get chance.

PS360PCROCKS5522d ago

Ya I know Crysis 2 sucks lol. Looks nice but not what I was expecting. Ya in Mafia 2 I max it all out and run my secondary card for PhysX and get like 45-50FPS that was with old drivers so I assume it's a little better now. I will try just cause 2 though, i liked the 360 demo.

Modestmex5523d ago

Oh yeah well im still running on 2 bfg 280gtx's oc and triple display monitors but mainly game on one. and these bad boys are still running most of the games maxed out.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio18d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing18d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
