EVGA and NVIDIA Design Unique Multi-GPU Graphics Accelerator - Page 2

AlienIsGOD · Oct 22, 2009, 01:28 PM

If it were free (as in i won it somehow) i would have just for the unique factor. Other than that its a waste of power and $$$.

This only proves that Nvidia has no Fermi ready yet if they are desperate enough to have to waste money on product development like that. Oh my...

WarEagleAU · Oct 22, 2009, 01:30 PM

while kind of sucky, I also have to say it is kind of cool. What would be cooler maybe is to force the g92 to be used for physix and other things. Perhaps some driver can do that for them...

Which it is make sense that G92b chip will be the primary display while GT200b chip will be the PhysX acceleration chip.

Oh wai-

I'd keep one if I got it for free, sounds 'cool', but screw paying for one.

Honestly I dunno what that is all about, I assume the drivers are able to dedicate groups of 24 sp's at a time (1 cluster in GT200) to Physx.

what wolf said, is the case.

it hardly affects performance at all, using a second GPU for it is pointless.

this entire GPU is an exercise in futility - its like strapping a jet engine to a donkey to make it go faster, but not bother to include fuel - or something to be transported

Animalpak · Oct 22, 2009, 03:37 PM

This is an absolute novelty you ever seen two different GPU mixed on a single PCB? I never seen before !

Do you believe this can beat the GTX 295?

Fermi is still far I would get one as Christmas gift.

the 285 classified rocks, the point is too little too late, I think Nvidia should have let board partners make non reference 280/285/295 from the get-go.
