GTX480 -> 2-Way SLI Scaling -> Almost 100%!!!!!

I noticed the same thing too. It's very cool indeed.


@tincart
I said what I said because it seems like it is darn near impossible for anyone to have serious discussions on this thread. People want to be sarcastic, throw insults, act childish, make fun of others, go off-topic and etc.. just because they don't agree with someone.

People need to have more decency.

A prime example is the second post of this thread. The individual asked me is I felt better now? Seriously, that is just rude and uncalled for. The sad part is that the poster has been a member since 2004 and has almost 2,500 posts. I can't stand negativity. People need to learn to smile and be considerate. I'm not saying I am perfect because I have a lot of work to do as well.

In the video forum you should expect a few snarky comments. They are a gentle reminder not to take things so seriously.

Your posts have come across as a bit desperate to prove your point, at least to me and I'm betting to others. Take a deep breath they are just video cards.

You've got an awesome rig and nobody is going to tell you otherwise. What we are trying to tell you is that not nearly as many are following in your multi- card footsteps as you think.

Anyway sorry if you misinterpreted my posts.

:Beer;

I've noticed that the frequency of the Green attacks have increased of late. Does it have anything to do with the glut in the retail channel? Maybe it's due to the fact that places like Newegg are giving away power supplies and hard drives just to unload GTX 4xx cards?

nV marketing honcho: "Go to the enthusiast sites and talk up our cards and drag ATI down, they're kicking our ass!"

Interesting thought., but I'd like to think the days of undercover marketing crap is behind us.

I'd say that things are so cut-throat now that anything goes. I think that the majority of GPU reviews are swayed into the direction of the highest bidder. I bet they have hundreds of employees masquerading as regular folk throughout all the tech forums pimping their product.

That competition and capitalism for ya As long as it causes both camps to scramble and continue to produce better and better products at a faster and faster pace, I could care less. All that matters to me is that my rig is fast

Fermi is a beast that has yet to be fully unlocked/utilized.

The next year is going to be awesome in the discreet graphics industry. (I hope)

The Steam hardware survey (May 2010) for multi-gpu systems:

NVIDIA SLI (2 GPUs) 1.61%
ATI Crossfire (2 GPUs) 0.10%
NVIDIA SLI (4 GPUs) 0.04%
NVIDIA SLI (3 GPUs) 0.03%

Don't get your hopes up. With 28nm a long way off we are looking at a VERY boring year. Not looking like SI is going to come out until Q1 2011... and I'm not sure we would see much from Nvidia before that otehr than perhaps a rare full core fermi for kicks.

I'd bet that more performance will come as the drivers mature.
