any predictions from the voltmod community on OC capability of the 260/280?
thx!
yes,Quote:

it will pump 1.21 gigawatts and may enable the card to play crysis
Without AA.
1.21 jiggawatts.... can it time travel?
can you glue two gtx 280's together and 9800gx2 cooler to make a homemade 280 gx2?

Ouch! You better get a yard stick out and see if the case will be big enough to hold this monster. It just so happens that the case my Gigabyte is currently in wouldn't work but luckily that's not where I'd put it.Quote:

This thread is like watching paint dry :(
first part was just a joke ;)
things im wondering:
is the sheath on the gtx 260 made of aluminum or plastic?
and how many heatpipes under the sheath?
So you post an article from FUD to keep the thread rolling?Quote:

I'd advise a minimum of an 850W+, and that's without over-clocking. Considering 3 ultras can use about 600W total system power non-overclocked, add about 40-50W a piece for the GTX-280's and you'll have a good rough estimate of what kind of load usage you'll be looking at. ;)Quote:

Its mentioned in this article; Note the image on the rightQuote:

We've learned that GT200, the one we call Geforce GTX 200, does support GDDR5 memory, but you won't see a card based on it anytime soon.
It is quite reasonably because 1GB GDDR5 would cost a lot of money, and Nvidia simply doesn’t even have to try before ATI manages to get its R700 card out.
The second part of the story is that despite doubled bandwidth, that could jump to a whopping 300GB/s or even much more, and you wouldn't see much difference in performance. The question of whether it can be done is finally answered, but will it be done and if so, when, remain to be seen.
knowing the cause may lead to a cure.Quote:

i spose multigpu owners live in hope of driver update fixes.
if it works, great, if it doesnt, suck eggs :eh::shrug:

i thought this was worth lifting from the link posted above. (is it real?)
those numbers look rather impressive. need a side by side gpuz shot from 4870 camp.
my gt is 60.8 GB/s bandwidth & 10.6 GPixels/s & 37.0 GTexels/s:stick:
There's a video of GTX260 up at tom's.. At least looks like it - 2x6 pins PCIe
http://video-it.tomshardware.com/vid...ROoafY9BB.html
yeah i saw that one...
still keen on seeing 4870 vs gtx260/80 gaming smoothness. nvidia drivers plus 8xQ AA have me won over at this point. i'm a bit concerned about ati drivers/AA...so someone help me out.
haha, I ninja'd that video.
it's definitely a 260 and not a 280
Anonymous delivers.
will these beasts support HDMI???
I guess a single enermax 1000W would be fine ofcourse there are other ones also nvidia says you need 1100W (no name psu ) to have tri sli
retail cards will have HDMI port
