Monstru Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Yes, it has finnaly come to this, after countless hours of work, the job is done. Up to 4 GTX480 team up their might to face up to 4 HD5870. Scaling, or not, CPU limit, or not, the massive 4WAY SLI review is finnaly up. And you don't even want to see the power consumtpion tests!

Massman Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Seems like all goes down well untill SLI hits 4-Way, then major performance drops. Have you compared the subtests to figure out what's the issue exactly? My best guess would be that the CPU bottleneck becomes too great and non-GPU dependant subtests take a hit? Quote
Massman Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Yeah - I know. Still, I don't know what subtests take a hit. Or is it in general? Board related? Quote
Monstru Posted May 12, 2010 Author Posted May 12, 2010 I have to study that more. Now I am dazed and confused, I just finished iwth 2 weeks of testing, and now writing, so I am taking a short break Quote
SF3D Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Nice that someone do these review test with decent CPU speed. It is so stupid to see tests done at some low level basic CPU's. Nice work Tudor! Quote
Monstru Posted May 13, 2010 Author Posted May 13, 2010 Thank you Petri! I would love to do these tests even at 5GHz on SS, but most of my readers would complain that it would not be relevant for them, so I found a nice compromise Quote
Massman Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 How is 4x GTX480 more relevant than a CPU at 5GHz Quote
