jAkUp, just out of intetest, have you been able to do a power draw test at the socket. Just wondering what it takes to run 3 of the beasts

Jakup,

Any chance you can run some 2560x1600 benchmarks?? I've got a 9800GTX SLI setup and run in Triplehead (3840x1024) which about matches the overall pixels of 2560x1600 and I'm deciding whether or not to upgrade to a pair of 280's before my eVGA step-up runs out at the end of the month.

Thanks in advance!

I do notice that theres still no video card out yet that can really handle Crysis. Sad.

Check his sig - Dell 2407WFP = 1920x1200 max. After the cost of the cards, cpu, ddr3, mobo etc $1399 for a 30inch might be a bit of stretch. Certainly would be fun though

card is awesome at high resolutions with 16 AF!

The GeForce GTX 280 can now do 32 pixels per clock of ROP Blends compared to 12 pixels per clock on the GeForce 8800 GTX, this is a significant increase.Notice that in every game we were able to have 16X AF enabled, we found literally very little performance drop enabling 16X AF in every game. This is a quality option you can simply leave on and enjoy clear textures.

I'm pretty sure the only reason why he still has the 24" is because he's an FPS wh0r3.

Finally a real successor to the 8800gtx, grats jakup thats an awesome machine!

Guys like this have enough money to spend any pc part they choose. He lives in California, Chino, and those people are like well off, Gas prices and cost of living doesn't bother them.

These cards are what 650 bucks each? 3 of them just over 2 grand. nothing just pocket change to some people here.

I just finished my rig with 2 9800GTX's and it runs very well, but i spent my wad already and i have to waite til next year to upgrade agin.

Nice rig as usual Jakup, you never mention how much you really pay for those cards.

I know The Big One a member here who i know will have them too cuz he is rich too.
