Another Bitchslapping Gaming PC Build - SMD Style. (VIDEO PAGE 13)

GODDAMMMIT i might have to drop back to 2 690's......i think. I will find out, but either way, 2 of them is still sick as fuck.

[meade916]

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

English dude.. english

lol i will explain better, it is because the GTX 690 is like 2 video cards in 1 circuit board (essentially 2 GTX 670 in one PCB) and the SLI system only allows for a maximum of 4 way SLI (4 grafic cards) witch it would be 2 GTX 690s

you might be right, i might only be able to run 2.....DAMMIT.......but the 690 is gonna be 2 GTX 680's on one board, not 670. I know that much.

Hey steve get this too ... http://gizmodo.com/5015730/emperor-workstation-belongs-in-the-death-star-my-office The most badass gamer chair

That's a sick build man! i know exactly what everything is... 64 GB of RAM that's INSANE! I've never seen a mobo with that many RAM slots that wasn't a server. Quick question... won't ya need more than 1 PSU if you're going to run 3 high end video cards? I am definitely tuned into this rig build!

1200 should be OK since these ones are also supposed to be really efficient.....but now it might be down to 2 which should really be OK.

i changed my original parts list to reflect the 2 i MIGHT be physically limited to. Still, the equivalent to 4 GTX 680's would be no joke

good lookin out #UD# -

you gonna be adding sounds? nice sound card with spu and dac?

actually, you CAN. 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.

I was certain that you can only have 4 GPU max when during SLI or Crossfire.

I heard that 680's are better then 690's. here is a link - http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

Just my 2 cent

The thing is that the GTX 680 and 670 both have the same GPU but they are clocked with different speeds and the 680 have more cuda cores, but yeah i got it wrong its 2 680s in one board, bot if hes gonna use for multidisplay what is going to make more difference is to have more memory on the video cards to run big resolutions

in theory 4 GTX 680 would be more powerfull the 2 690s but when using 4 phisical cards it starts to give more driver issues 2 690s would be less hedache then 4 680s

this is the same chicken who deleted himself from the forum right? lol. That things gonna be sick.
