What's the point, any card would choke and get unplayable framerates.Quote:

This doesn't have the gtx 580 but the cards are already choking with no AA. What the point of testing and getting unplayable framerates.
In addition, AA I thought wasn't really that needed when you are using such a high resolution.
I think when your dealing with 2560*1600, the ideal solution is to have SLI or CF because when your spending that much on videocards(700+) I can see it, but 500 dollars is pretty decent away from 1200 dollars of such monitors.
Maybe its just me but;
1. Only 1920 res?
2. Why no AA/AF?
3. I like the look of the Gainward card more
4. I'll give credit to HH that they actually used Enthusiast settings in Crysis Warhead. Other reviews seem to conveniently forget Warhead has that option, only sticking to the Gamer settings then trying to accuse the engine of being outdated :rolleyes:
FPS is kinda low, but most of those cards aren't what I would call choking. Choking > slideshow-like. HD6870 and up get ok scores, and even the GTX470 and 460 while struggling would weigh in with a a respectable result if they were overclocked.Quote:

It depends, if he uses 2560x1600 with lots of AA/AF or better yet multimonitor it makes sence as you run out of memory fast if you are a eyecandyjunkie. Look at Vegas result for 580 stock and the 3GB.Quote:

this review isn't fair, just as others have stated above, no AF/AA 2560x1600?
Newegg now has the Asus GTX 580 DCII for a few bucks less than the stock asus model... I ordered me one. Kind of a strange price, thinking maybe it's wrong but hoping it's not.
Saw this too, was thinking About pulling the trigger on a pair of these sli, but would it have clearance issues in a ft02/rv02(new revision) ? Might grab the twin frozr edition instead if that's the caseQuote:
