I still have a 280X (water cooled) and a 7970 (also water cooled). Both worked fine in crossfire.

Haven't got a 280X ever, but the 280 I had in 2014 (a Gigabyte Windforce X3) worked flawlessly, sold it and got an used GTX 680.

My 7970 Matrix works like a charm and stays cool and quiet :)
My apologies, but either way, that series was a nightmare. I never had a good one and went back to a 7970 at the time I think... Should have grabbed some 780 TI's I think, they where another great card at the time. The 680's weren't too bad either :)

I know what you mean... It's not like I don't have enough of them already to do SLI with 3070, 3080 and 3090..... :laugh:

Had a blast with these 2 (Asus Matrix HD7970 & 280X), replaced by the GTX1080Ti.
Yes, sorry.

Oh nice, I like your keyboard. Could you post a bigger pic of it?

That is a beaut!
Thanks! Performance to power wasn't that stellar though. And when crossfire worked it was a blast, but still a pita with certain games (The witcher 3 never really worked).

Ok last one I swear! I just wanted to get another fan in there :laugh:

I had to take the front panel off and re run the front panel cables. TY-143 and TL-D14X take up a lot of space together because of their 120mm bolt pattern. But that’s it! Im happy with it, and it is done.. :)

So I have my trifecta starting. I have the ASUS X99 Z10PE-D16 WS, Z10PE-D8 WS & X99-WS/IPMI boards. One of the boards came with CPUs, some RAM and an NVMe drive.

Here's the start in a Rosewill 4U RSV-L4500 with the Z10PE-D8:

PXL_20210827_233445492.MPsmaller.jpg



Someday I want to paint the interior & rear black. Just something about it bothers me if I don't. So I'll have the two dualies in RSV-L4500's and the X99-WS/IPMI in the middle inside a RSV-L4000. On the left side bays on the L4000 I want to put a lit up sign with the project name or just a smaller USB monitor. It's kind of all inspired by Thinking Machines CM-2/CM-5. So I want to hopefully get some blinkenlights going with IcyDock bays in the front.

Seeing some mint older rigs with multiple cards made me take a look back in time, heres a couple of more fun builds.

Q6600 @ 3.6ghz, 8GB DDR 1066 (i think...) and SLi GTX260 Core 216 1792mb x2 - I loved this build, also owned a GTX295 but wanted to double the VRAM to allow it to stretch it's legs better.

IMG_0241.JPG



i7 920, 12gb RAM, 5870 + 5850 in crossfire. Got that Coolermaster V10 was a beast and a pain to install and remove!

I miss SLI/Crossfire.... Finally gave up on it post Pascal. Something about having 2 high end gpu felt badass. I guess highend gpu don't really require it anymore.

I remember needing dual 680s to hit over 60fps in some games at 1080p/ultra even around it's launch. How times have changed.
