GeForce GTX 480 Serious competitor for best value GPU on the market.

[Recon-UK]

Well ok, i put my best word forward for the 480, all i can do...



Anyway, is there a bottleneck somewhere with crysis? i ran both at 4xMSAA and 8xMSAA, the 4xMSAA result only offered 1 fps more over 8xMSAA...




I did a run at 4XMSAA and only high settings, and cranked out just under 75FPS!

are you going to tell me that this in sli will run my 3d surround flawlessly?

With no Vram bottleneck, more than likely, and depends on resolution and game....

A single 480 can handle BF3 upto Ultra settings with no AA at 2560x1600 in single player, with enough FPS to be playable.

So.... who knows, i have never tried surround res however.

Sorry but Doesn't have enough memory to do that!

[OcSurfer]

now search for 1080p x 3 3d surround, max payne 3, max settings
the card will melt itself!

 

[JMMP]

No! For 3x 1080p monitors in 3d.......

I play MP3 myself, it is fine upto 2560x1600 without any Vram bottleneck with a single 480...

I have just googled surround, i cannot find any 480 SLi video....

 

[OcSurfer]

also wheres the adaptive vsync, a feature i personally like?
and the power draw comparted to kepler, not worth it imo, people dont keep buying new cards, the money you save in power bills over the life of the rig will offset that
id personally get the tahiti 7870 over these,

BAD TROLL IST BAD!

we are not talking a single 1600p monitor, we are talking 3 1080p monitors in 3d!

480 has adaptive Vsync..........

 

[OcSurfer]

WHERES THE 3D!!!!!

answer half the question /slowclap!

Because it can´t run well games at 3x1080P surround with a 1.5gb sli......

 

[OcSurfer]

also framrates?!

 

[Recon-UK]

 

[OcSurfer]

we've established that,
yet another /slowclap!

 

[Recon-UK]

If there were a real memory bottleneck, the whole visual representation would stutter usually....

With severe dips, especially in SLi because of the combines GPU power.

 

[JMMP]

Recon-uk.......no offence but.....you need to have an open mind......

 

[Recon-UK]

None taken...... i was more offended by the other person apparently slow-clapping with his GTX 670 and 7970 Crossfire asking questions about 480 SLi....


Trolling is not his best suite.

 

[OcSurfer]

Recon-uk.......no offence but.....you need to have an open mind......

+1
People just will not buy these anymore
too much power draw
for modern cards, low vram,
running hot,
lack of availible waterblocks now,
much better options availible for the price range,

shall i continue or are you going to still be shortsighted with this?
