Triple SLI inspected: 150% more Fps in Crysis than single card
 

PCGH had the chance to test a Triple SLI system from Nvidia with 8800 Ultras inside. We even had the opportunity to benchmark Crysis with the yet to be released patch which helps SLI performance a lot. We managed to get 150% more Fps with the triple setup compared to the single card (screenshot enclosed). We were able to play Crysis in 1920x1200 (no FSSA/AF) in DX10 Very High with 37,9 Fps average and 14 Fps Minimun in “Paradise Lost”.

Cool, 150% performance for 300% the price. ;)

anybody caught buying a single 8800Ultra already has too money to spare;)
so what if he buys 3, at least his system is faster than the fastest out there and he gets to play all the games at highest quality without FPS.

Sounds like a Calantak setup to me:)


*why does every "next page link" on PCGH open a new window, lame site

oh yeah! calantak setups were cool! :ws:

Maybe when the next generation hits, and my library is finished i'll get myself a new triple sli setup!

it is actually 250% of the performance for 300% of the price


with GTs, that is rather interesting

GT doesn't do Triple-SLI, only GTX and Ultra :/

Indeed : 150% more is 250% in total ;)

Should I get my third 8800GTX after all :p

j/k hey ;)

What if we force Ultra drivers?

It doesn't have the 2 SLI connectors which are required.

Right, it's been too long since I saw one of those :/
