Hey, so I had some spare cash and thought id throw together a extra pc for the second entertainment area in the house. I currently have my main rig in my bedroom and its performing well but ive only been building computers as of about mid 2010 to 2012 so i only have about 2 years experience, and anything prior to that i really have not used.
Ive managed to get some components together which were roughly top of the line late 2009 to early 2010 and was curious how they would perform. So the main components at hand are the following
ASUS P5N32-E SLI Mobo socket 775
8GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800mhz dual channel ram
Intel Core 2 Quad 9550 2.83ghz
EVGA gtx 285 Superclocked edition 1GB
XFX Gtx 285 triple Xxx Edition 1GB
The rest of the components are pretty much not really needed to be listed as it wont make to much of a difference but those are the components i managed to get for a low price.
Now I havent actually recieved them yet i was curious how would it perform in todays games? for example battlefield 3 kind of graphical games.
The motherboard has a 3rd pcie x16 slot where i can put another gtx 285 if i wanted altough it would change from running x16 x16 to x8 x8 x8. Would 2 gtx 285 allow me to do 1080p maxed bf3 just for reference? what performance would i be looking at in comparison to todays components?. and how good would tripple sli be?
