#UD# Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 I just would like to point out that you cant use 3 GTX 690s in SLI because the GTX 690 is a Dual GPU card thus it already have a 2 way SLI on its own, that beeing said if you have 2 of them its a 4 way SLI if you had 3 of them it would be a 6 way SLI witch is impossible you can use 3 GTX 680s in 3 way SLi tho 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meade916 Posted November 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Nice rig, but windows 8? yuck. lol what should i get, windows XP? new rig, new everything, new operating system. Plus i am hearing tons of great stuff about 8. i am a 7 guy but i can't go bass-ackwards on a PC build, ever. Well no, not XP. I'm sure win 8 is fine. It's just you know, it was designed for a tablet and from what i have seen it doesn't translate all that well it a desktop. Not looking to start a debate on win 8. Of course it's just an opinion and the only one that matters here is Chicken's since it's his rig. Plus, that rig looks like it will eat games for breakfast and take their lunch money while doing it! i heard that about it too. BUT, mostly its just haters finding a way to dislike something before they try it. (not talking about you, well, i guess i sorta am ) anyway, i believe there are apps you can add to it to make it feel more "normal", such as getting the start button back and things like that. This is a GAMING PC though bro, so all its for is finding the game icon, clicking it and playing. None of that other shit will matter. At least though, i will get to try it on his before i decide to update mine. I am extremely happy with 7 so no hurry.

The problem is, the third card won't be that dramatic of a difference. Knowing him though, if it can be done, he will want it done. I'm almost certain you can do it. If it doesn't work, i will drop back to 2 but right now its looking like 3. edit: just checked and it might not even be physically possible...not enough SLI jumper slots. hmmmm...dammit. lol 1 Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

kickass audio Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 It will load a little more than 6 seconds but idk about windows 8. I have windows 7 game rebel edition on my laptop with an OCZ Vertex 4 running off a Core I7-2670QM with an Nvidia GeForce GT555M graphics card. I booted up in 5 seconds without any programs loaded. Once i loaded my programs up it boots in 8-10 seconds. Its only a 256GB SSD but i love it. Nice gaming rig setup steve.

After I posted it that I realized what i said and was like, yeah most games that get released in the next year or so are going to be optimized for win 8 anyway. So, might as well take the plunge and do it right! I hope you post some benchmarks after you get it finished. Wonder what the 3dmark score is going to be...
