Gunslinger Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This is 2 x gtx295, not 4 X gtx 285.Correct it you know nothing jon snow It is 100% correct. The GTX 285 Classified cards in 4x SLI showed up in drivers and GPUz as 2x GTX295. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know but this seems to be an escamotage because there is a section for 2x 295 on hwbot. http://hwbot.org/hardware/videocard/geforce_gtx_295 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular result was one indeed ran with 4x GTX 285's and not 295's so it is in the "right" category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K404 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 eVGA offered 4-way GTX285 by having a BIOS that identified the card as a GTX295 so that the nVidia drivers would be tricked into offering 4-way SLI. The result is accurate. As far as I know, the only way to run 4-way '285 is to find 4 of these eVGA cards..... ALTHOUGH.... maybe nVidia drivers have since been updated to allow any GTX285 to be used in 4-way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
