THANK YOU W1ZZ!! (now go to bed, LoL)
If we are looking at dollars (as the primary concern) this should be a $600-650 setup, if we are looking at performance (as the primary concern) this should be a $900-950 setup @_0 Nvidia grabbed a tommy gun and blasted red camp with the 680 and as they walked back to green camp slipped, fell, and blasted holes in their own tents when they released the 670. I still say the 690 is the sexiest card out : ) |

I have never liked the dual-GPU setups because of the driver issues and microstuttering bs. But for first time in years it looks like I should give SLi another try with 2x ASUS GTX 670 DCIIs. I can always sell the other card if it turns out horrible. At least the performance is good!

@ Wizzard
Typo in the last page "3D Vision Surround 3x 1080p", I think you mean 2D I am waiting for 670 to drop to $350 to grab 2

oh really? Nice! RV is the new GOAT. James Stewart is looking good on the new Suzuki though, dungey is going to have some fun this nationals with JS7 given him a run.

Sweet!! Another motohead! Been racing on and off down here in the NW for about 30+ years. I ran a AX track for 4 of those years in North plains OR. And yeah.....I'm happy for Stewart he got off the Yamaha , as it wasn't doing him any good. I'm not his biggest fan , but I hope he does well this summer ( we'll find out next weekend ). I think RD will be tough to beat this summer , along with Rattray. I'm seriously bummed RV is hurt! |

I believe the issue is capacity at TSMC, but I can only guess from what I've read so far. |

He was also asked about issues acquiring wafers and he said that TSMC and them finaly came to an agreement and doesnt expect prices of wafer to go up. Typical Q&A more like marketing and pitching your outlook but in there a few good questions about Kepler and TSMC. What I took away from it from Keplers perspective is that they were late to TSMC and to top it off they just didnt buy the wafers for it in a timely manner also they are hoping wafer prices dont go up which means they are buying as they go. Maybe money issues ? Last edited by Xzibit; May 13, 2012 at 05:58 AM. |

Test without logic
Test no sense ... how to compare cards in SLI with cards in a simple way? Illogical. The right way is to compare the SLI cards with Crossfire. Without credibility.

I understand that one could compare SLI to crossfire, but believe it or not, that's not what the review is about. That does not mean the review has no credibility. It just means it wasn't what you wanted. Got it now? |

I understand it's not logical to you. Work on it.

By that logic, all CPU comparison tests are highly illogical. (for you, at least)

What you do not understand is that how to perform a test with multiple cards in SLI and none in Crossfire! How to make a comparison between NVIDIA and RADEON cards in pairs? Got it now? I think for the fans of NVIDIA, continued without understanding.

You guys are just being mean :P, this guy just asked why HD7970 CFX isn't there. The answer is because. if you want to compere the two just go to the HD7970 CFX review and see the results. Yes, drivers are different but the its still comparable.

Thank you! That was exactly what I'm trying to say. I think the test to stay cool, should have some HD 7970 and HD7950 in CF.
