My EPEEN! IS HUGE now! (ZIP) 2x 6950's @ 6970 stable!
Now I just need to find some games to play with them. Cataclysm def! plays faster, dual 5770's used to hover in and out of 60fps V-Sync quite constantly, producing some juddering, the dual 6970's do it enormously less. But I have still found instances where I will drop to 59 fps which is NOT acceptable. Waiting on KOR and Red Orchestra 2. Portal 2 I will be playing. Deus Ex. Duke Nukem. Skyrim.....if these cards are even still relevant then. Etc. Diablo 3. There are others just can't think of em.
But they still aren't fast enough. Cataclysm never goes below 60fps on Ultra 1920*1200, but sometimes it dips to 64fps. NOT ACCEPTABLE. Only thing I can do now is Dual 580's for $1k. Shouldn't these cards be playing Cataclysm at like 1000fps? Alas, the experience is better. 500$ better.....yes.
Guys! look at my EPEEN!
Also, I realized the 2500k isn't for me. The i5-750 has 8mb of L3, the 2500k only has 6mb, something which I never before realized. I will never buy a proc with lower L3 cache anymore....as it does come into play at times.
One thing about consoles that is nice for my ocd personality, is the only thing to focus on is the game. The performance isn't in question. However even with 500$ EPEEN, performance can still come into question.
No 2 gpu's will be faster at 1080p.
