take a look m8

Yeah, I saw that a while back. Hopefully some stuff like this starts to hit the shelves soon after release.

Just saw this at VR-Zone, which got it from http://we.pcinlife.com/viewthread.php?tid=946259&page=1

Doesn't look as good as promised in 3D06. I only hope that real-world gaming benches pop-out soon

Lets start a collection to pay someone to break NDA. I'll donate $100.

I doubt that will ever happen

You should think you will win 100$ if you just wait 'till the 17th

Is there any air cooling heatsinks already on the market that fits the GTX 280?

AFAIK no, there isn't any.

[AliG]

really depends on the mounting holes, if they line up with anything from the past (like how the 8800gt lined up fairly well with the 7900gt but not 8800gtx), then perhaps you can get it to work, but it should have a pretty good stock cooler because of the large die size, I doubt you'll find better short of paying ~$50 for something like an hr 03 uber extreme gtx 280 edition or whatever thermalright plans to make

I wont have any time to put on any graphs, or take crazy pictures, which i will soon, but i will tell you this, crysis is fully playable at 1920x1200 dx10 very high, but without AA, with AA its still playable but i choose without AA to have a smoother game....this is on vista x64 with my rig in my sig. cpu at 3.6ghz 450fsb, memory at 1:2 at 1800

[AliG]

meh, according to many reviews, without any aa dx10 crysis doesn't really tax your gfx all that much more than dx9 crysis, and playable is up to the user's discretion. you don't need graphs, numbers are just fine

if by not taxing it much more than DX9 High you mean 15FPS less then you would be right. i remember at CES 2008 Nvidia had a TRI-SLI demo with 3 8800 ultra's and ran crysis on very high at 1920x1200 with no AA and it was unplayable. most PC's can't handle crysis at 1920x1200 on DX9 high not to mention very high. im still waiting for official review though

[AliG]

a review by[h] showed only a 2 FPS difference, but that was for medium, but I doubt medium ---> high would cause that big of a difference

http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/articl...50aHVzaWFzdA==

he is talking the difference between High and VERY high. which is allot bigger then 2FPS. you can run High DX9, High DX10 and VERY High DX10. the difference between high DX9 and High DX10 is about 3-5 FPS (my own testing) and the difference between High DX10 and VERY high DX10 is about 10-15FPS last time i checked.

NDA lifts up 16.6! Not 17.6!

For 100 bucks i can tell everything ....

[Atal]

AFAIK no, there isn't any.

there is this one for water cooling, http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...p?t=188698:up:

That's a waterblock, not a heatsink ( obviously )

Japan IT Media website today brings us the CRYSIS 1920*1200 VH test result of NVIDIA next generation flagship -GeForce GTX 280 Graphics Card.

According to IT Media said, NVIDIA and an anonymous motherboard manufacturer hold a secret presentation to show the performance of GTX 280 outside the Computex 2008.

The visitors said that the demonstration room is very dim lighting. In addition to show the performance of GTX 280 graphics card, the secret presentation also shown parts of the motherboards which are compatible with GTX 280, they simply had been placed on the windowsill of the room.

IT Media site had the opportunity to run GPU-Z, CPU-Z and Crysis Benchmark on the GTX 280 demo system. From the photos, we can clearly see that NVIDIA GTX 280 presentation system used Intel Core 2 Quad four-core processor, the frequency is 2.66GHz, the Crysis Benchmark with 1920 x1200 VeryHigh settings indicated that the average fps of GTX 280 graphics card reached 36.81!

uhh, at least in XP, isn't that already doable with a single 8800GTX?

he is talking the difference between High and VERY high. which is allot bigger then 2FPS. you can run High DX9, High DX10 and VERY High DX10. the difference between high DX9 and High DX10 is about 3-5 FPS (my own testing) and the difference between High DX10 and VERY high DX10 is about 10-15FPS last time i checked.

just run vhigh in dx9...

Despite an overall powerful machine, Intel QX6700, 4GB DDR2-800 and BFG PhysX physics accelerator, the results show that Crysis is big challenge for the hardware of today.

With the highest image quality settings, no AA/AF though, they[8800gtx sli] averaged 43.9 fps at a resolution of 1024x768. When they cranked up the resolution to 1280x1024 the performance went down to 36.8 fps. Hardly impressive results for a machine with some of the hottest hardware around
