Anyone getting a 580 soon? I want to compare stuff

douglatins · Nov 10, 2010

Like performance at same clocks, in some benchmarks, like vantage, mafia2, etc.

Preferably an i7 as cpu

Borque · Nov 10, 2010

I've just preordered an EVGA superclocked 580 GTX.

17-19 november will be the shipping date.

As I get it, I'll test some stuff. And I'll post it here, of course.

Red_Machine · Nov 10, 2010

I am, but unfortunately I don't have an i7. I'm on the AMD platform and intend to stay there for the forseeable future.

I have an AMD Phenom x II 955 3.2 GHz.

Hope there is no prob with bottlenecking here.

I really hope you are upgrading that CPU as you will be seriously bottlenecked, you want a quad at 3.6+ghz

Up your multi and oc that quad, should be fine.

what do you mean with up your multi?

Red_Machine · Nov 10, 2010

He means up your CPU's multiplier.

I'm gonna have bottleneck with an X4 at 3.2 ghz??? stock speed?

Phenom2? if not not so much.

I am installing the AXP in mine so i can OC like crazy, just dont ask to compare temps lol

Borque fill system specs man

AMD Phenom II x4 3.2 Ghz
4 gb of Corsair RAM at 1333mhz
Gigabyt MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard.
seagate barracuda 500gb HDD
and right now a 4870 x2 from Sapphire, not happy at all with this card.

If you tell me I have to overclock my CPU i'm getting a new processor.

You guys scared me with that multi your CPU thing... I can't possibly imagine a bottleneck with this system for the gtx 580.

Make a wild guess

Bneck is not that big a deal, its not like you are using a ATHLON LIKE SOME OTHER PEEPS LOLOSADSLOALSOLOALOLO

Haha thats you Red vvvvvvv---------vvvvvvvvv

Har de har har.

Rubbish, the Athlons perform within 5% of PII at the same clock speed, only difference is the L2 cache which isn't that much of an issue when gaming.

And yes a PII at 3.2ghz will be bottlenecked by a GTX 580, and more so an athlon x2 as Red_Machine has!! :confused:

Melvis · Nov 10, 2010

Why dont you like your 4870X2?

Power hungry, hot, loud and not so much performance these days

m'aight?

Sooo... If I get, lets say... AMD Phenom II X6 1090T 3.2 GHz...

bottleneck gone?

Could elaborate on why an almost topPhenom II x4 CPU would bottleneck a gtx 580? I don't really understand.

I don't know much about six cores, but man, you are ok, i would OC to 3.8 though

Do you have a good cooler? I can reccomend this http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/3543/scythe_ninja_3_scnj_3000_cpu_cooler/index.html

While this is true, i could say the same for the GTX580.

Its hotter then the 4870X2, its only 50watts off the 4870X2 in power consumption, both cards are loud did you hear it on linus tech tips? and performance of a 4870X2 is still very good. He be going from the 5th most powerful card to the 2nd most.

okay actually the GTX580 is quieter then the GTX285 which is quieter then the 4870x2. It also runs at the same temperatures if not cooler then the gtx285. the 4870x2 is like a jet engine.

Also you wont have the microstutter and cf problems in games if you switch to a single gtx580 card.

Borque · Nov 10, 2010

I might be getting a 1090T phenom, so I avoid performance issues.

Dont get me wrong the 4870X2 when cranked up is dam loud, but honestly the GTX285/580 i still wouldn't call quite running cards. Temp wise i have yet to see mine get over 80c and its getting into summer here now. Microstutter i have yet to see it in the last yr i have owned my card :ohwell:

Maybe im just got a lucky card?

Bjorn_Of_Iceland · Nov 10, 2010

a single powerful card > multi GPU. been through SLi, and dual GPU board. Vowed not to go that path again. Those things have high max fps, but bad minimum fps. Add to that, multigpu profiles, and the chances of the profile forcing single GPU mode, since AFR or split frame render performance sucks on the app (Empire Total War comes to mind).

Rare yes, but still a probability.

A single gpu wont have those hassles.
