Hey guys picked up a GTX295 yesterday and grabbing another today to see what quad sli is like and how unsupported it is. Should be a real waste of money... Cant wait!

Have a Asus GTX280oc for sale if anyone is interested in it. Under a month old and since it is factory overclocked I havent bothered trying to go any further, originally cost $790.

Quad Sli FTW Quacks, like i always said rofl!!!!
Thats the best setup available atm m8 check out these guys....39000 3Dmark Vantage with 295 quad sli

The drivers/ support for qsli is great now especially since the 295 was released. We now have fuck all micro stuttering (the main issue with 4 gpu's) and have multi monitor support with 1 as target SLI screen and the other free to run diagnostics, TS, webpbrcon, or whateva with no performance loss to the gaming!! This is with Vista and 7 only of course....dont tell me you are still an XP fanboy Quacks.....rofl!
Cos.
p.s post some bench's with Vantage when ya get the second card m8

Quad sli?

Is the GTX295 2 GPU's in one or still single?

it $790 origional, how much now?

Thats what I paid, make an offer if you want it.

thats bullshit quacks, my dreams of owning you in the pc battle are out of reach now quad SLI are you nuts, ive just finished saving up for a dual SLI 295's. ahh still better then everyone else i spose, that will do me...

oh and i got to say good luck on keeping it cool, i know you got watercooled but your gonna need a A/C just fro your pc. mehhehehe BLOW UP TIME

luv boots

Ahhh Boots if i had actually slept last night I would really give you shit over this... GTX295's have 2 GPU's so when you run them in sli that is called QuadSLI u nub... ROFL
OOOOOOH SNAP!!!!!!!! You ma bitch boots!

BS me NUB no way, the cards a dual gpu's, if i had one card its still not sli is it biatch. therefore 2 cards is only dual sli mofo which means im gonna have a better pc then you. YESSSSS eat it

Ahh boots you just make it so easy hahahahahaha

http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-295-quad-sli-gaming-test/

haha nah thats wrong.

im smarter then some stupid pc site. 4 gpu's in 2 slots does not quad sli, dual sli & 4 gpu's. i will stick by that FOR GOOD

like i said 1xGTX 295 with 2 gpu's doesn mean u have dual SLI

very valid point there boots

"oh thanks quacks"

zzzzzzzzzzzz...... dual sli? with 2 gpu's. 2gpu's = 1xSLI. Say two, 8800's with single gpu's bridged together = 1 SLI,

SO 2xGPU's in 1 card = 1 SLI

:therefore 2 cards with 2 GPU's each = 2xSLI, this leads us to believe that when you put them in SLI it would make 2x2GPU's in SLI which would = 4GPU's TOTAL. But if each card is only 1xSLI and you put them in SLI one would believe that it would mean Dual SLI BUT! you would have 4 gpu's and as such could be called 'QUAD' SLI because there are 4 gpu's total in the 'SLI' set up. the end.

yea its a tough one, im sticking with dual SLI only with 4 x gpu's, quacks may be right it could b classed as quad but i make the rules.

dual it is

lol well i'd say its kinda both haha not really sure, i had to edit that other post about 3 times for it to make sense lol

how much for the card quacks?

i'll give you 50 bucks for it haha

theres only one way to deal with this POLL

I'm fairly sure that the computer recognises it as being 2 gfx cards in SLI. Therefore, when it sees a second dual gpu card, which is also SLI, you will have a 4 GPU SLI or QUADSLI.

GTX295 = 2 GTX260 on one card.

It's "Quad SLI" because one card does use SLI technology, it's just the SLI bridge is attached within the casing of the card, not externally like you'd have with two separate cards. This is also the reason why you only have one external SLI finger on the dual-GPU cards, because the second finger is already used internally. You can disable SLI on a 9800GX2 and run a single core.



Cheers

bang...game over boots im afraid, thats some concrete evidence there by shin.

Quacks wtf you need so much gaming power for? Are you one of those tech heads that's gotta have the best as soon as it's released?

You should rent your computer out for LAN gaming lol....Do a big poster and hang at LAN events....

"YOU WANT THE FUCKING BEST YOU CUNTS, WELL HIRE THIS FUCKING AWESOME RIG YOU BUNCH OF FUCKING FAGGOTS!"

You'll have em lining up for a chance to play it.

quacks did this end up working or are they the coasters?

here is the best pricing I can find for a brand new card:

AUD $499.00 VGA (nV) GTX 285 1GB Sparkle
http://www.itestate.com.au/pages/product/pdt_homepage.faces

AUD $499.00
http://www.staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=280+gtx+nvidia&spos=1

And who knows what quacks has done to it and I guess there's no more warranty as well, so as the legal folk always say in latin: CAVEAT EMPTOR...."let the buyer beware"

and here are the best prices I can see for the gtx 295
VGA (nV) GTX 295 1792MB EVGA AUD$859.00
VGA (nV) GTX 295 1792MB G-Byte AUD$829.00

nVidia - Palit GF GTX 295 PCI-E 2.0 1792MB DDR3 896-bit, 576/2000MHz. AUD$754.60
nVidia - Galaxy GF GTX 295 PCI-E 2.0 1792MB DDR3 896-bit, 576/2000MHz AUD$754.60
Gainward 1GB 1024MB Nvidia GTX 295 GTS295 DVI PCI-E Video Card AUD$759.00

I just can't work out how the hell quacks can afford to buy 2 x gtx 295 and I am sure he also has all the other bells and whistles too ?
His pc must cost a fortune !!!

I just wonder is that thing is insured!!!

it's all that extra cash he gets from the donations lol!

i got the palit for like 650 =D wondering if its worth getting two... if the benefits are anything like the 285...

yea this post is old. anyways i will get 2x295 running as soon as i can afford the mobo, ram, HD, and power supply
