buickgn will buy it. He needs a 2nd one.

Random Q: Im making the assumption your going the 9800gx2 or 9800gtx route?

3

More than likely I’m going with the gx2.

Ya, Im going to get 2 of them actually. Ive seen a benchmark on the evga site showing that quad sli 9800gx2 gets an average of 10fps better than tri sli ultras…with an evga 790i mobo. Thats actually quite impressive considering how buggy these are supposed to be.

yeah, I’m still not 100% sure yet on which way I’m going. The new ATi X2 cards seem like a decent deal too (price vs performance).

Either way, I’m stuck with a non-sli motherboard for the moment and need to make the best of it :smiley: It seems that either GX2 (ati or nvidia) card would be the way to go

6

wow… that’s one hell of a rig.

still can’t believe that Crysis is taxing systems that badly. I mean, 3 ultras and it still can’t get playable frame rates. The GX2 Quad seems to work great, but thats A LOT of loot right there

7

ya its way too much $ for only avg of 30fps. But it was maxed out with x16AA on. So Im sure you could get 40-50fps if you got rid of x16aa. Thats gotta be a bit overkill. x4 is plenty.

I can barely tell a difference from AA on and off @ 1680x1050 on a 24" monitor. I can’t imagine 1920X1200 being any different

not worth the overhead. It would be cool if he posted the avg fps without AA all together
