i see no need for aa at very high res's but af always helps.
so the 9800gx2 turns out to be not as bad as we belived, but its still a large chunk out of some ones wallet lol.

tomorow i will test it in that maps you asked !
regards
your the man !
I want one so bad !
Thanks for posting that... very interesting. Looks like 1920x1200 very high is just out of reach, but high dx10 might be playable... even a mixture of the too. Looking forward to playing around with it. Anyhow, from your tests it seems 1650x1080 very high is prob the sweet spot for this card in crysis.Quote:

Very nice there DStealth. That is quite the high OC on the card however, I don't think all 9800GX2 will reach this high.
Does anyone know if you can edit clocks and fan speeds via Nibitor and reflash the card so it is permanently like that?
Hi Mascaras. You aren't happening to be running dual displays are you? I am wondering how the GX2 reacts to such setups. Does the secondary display automatically become disabled when 3D is run, just to re-enable when it is closed out? Or do I have to manually enable/disable the display before 3D is run. If this is the case does the system require a reboot after doing so either way, and how long does the process take before it is finished once initiated?

Nice results!
How does the card perform when it isn't ran in a pcie2 mobo? Does it go 8x/8x then and if so how much does it affect performance?
Ok thanks! I would appreciate that if you could.Quote:

nice review like always man. seems like a sweet card, too bad its so expensive compared to the 3870X2
Do you care to comment on the fan noise? Have you tried turning it up for lower temps? Do you find it loud when doing so?
Have you thought about overclocking the card as well? I am curious as to what your particular card can do across the board at max, yet clean and stable clocks.
nice review :D
I'm curious is the shell of the card actually means anything to holding the card together? i mean can you run the card without those two covers (that the stickers are on).
if so would it be feasable to get two HR-03-PLUS's and mount them on each card -just facing outward?
i hope someone understands :D
if the cores are facing each other i dont think it would work, unless the hr-03 has both sided of the mounting polished.

Great thanks, is so 700/1750/2000 the maximum your card can do?
If you can, let me know at what % the fan actual gets to be too noisy?
Sorry for being a pain, thanks.
Nope, was only the first attempt OC @ bench i made :DQuote:

80k would be walk in the park under XP, also the upper result is not tweaked at all and CPU@ 24/7 ;)
In COD4 i marked something strange - if Vsync+TB are off, frames are moving from 160-180 to let say 30-40 in intensive scenes , but when they on - never going under 60:up: 1680*1050 SSAAx8Q AF16 all maxed...
@mascaras Very nice tread , sorry for posting my results in your tread, don't wanna hijack it ...just not to make another one...
so Mascaras and DStealth, since SLi is disabled on the NVidia control panel, there should be no problems with multimonitors, right... since that whole "u have to enable sli for the card to work" crap is out of the way...
Thank you for the review...
Looks good :).
Haha i could imagine that...Quote:
