In part two of our look at insane GPUs at mental resolutions, we're putting the GTX590 through its paces.

looks great, but as usual (lol) i have my concerns...
590s are dual GPU
2 are used in this sli test - cos that is the only way nvidia can run triple monitor setups
very expensive (~£1100)
HD6990 are also dual GPU
a single card is needed for triple eyefinity setups...... AND ONLY ONE WAS USED
half the price (of the nvidia counterpart) for tri-monitor (~£560)
and judging by the benchmarks - the 6990 wins (due to the forementioned)
Single 590 test was with tripple screens.... So errrrm ONLY ONE WAS USED
Might want to read the review or at least check your facts before ranting![]()
I've been saying all along that Nvidia was King of the Hill even if the ATI was a few fps better in benches back when first released the noise/heat ration between the two made Green Team the clear winner. Now since drivers for both have been fixed Green is ahead in all aspects. I'm not going to say it........
lol XD +1 for that piece of awesome. Good lord tho man, if the 590 just killed the 6990....does that mean the Mars II will freaken Vaporize it XD
oh hell yeah I am
I TOLD YA SO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![]()
I don't get the charts,
Gtx 590 sli 5970*1080
Then gtx 590 5970*1080
Then another just gtx 590 (and this one is wayyy above the others in the chart, and the sli gets lower fps then the others... I'm confused is the chart labeled wrong?.......

I don't get the charts,
Gtx 590 sli 5970*1080 [Quad GPU- Triple Monitor]
Then gtx 590 5970*1080 [Dual GPU- Triple Monitor]
Then another just gtx 590 [Dual GPU- Single Monitor] (and this one is wayyy above the others in the chart, and the sli gets lower fps then the others... I'm confused is the chart labeled wrong?.......
Good review, there is no denying the 590 is a beast and if I had the money i'd buy it over the 6990 any day.
I'm not interested in a card that sounds like a hoover and is only slightly faster as in 2-3 FPS that you wouldn't physically notice the difference, just to say that I have a faster card, silence is bliss and the 6990 ain't.
I think we need to see a review of a 6990 and a 590 running together on a BBM though, just for laughs.![]()
