    kingpin,

    I am trying to enable quad sli in xp but it doesn't show up in the control panel. I also have two of these installed and have to remove the sli cable to get 3dmark 06 to run. What drivers are you using? I have 174.53 off the nvidia site.

    what rendering modes will you be using during quad sli test while running 3dmark 06. I have tried the 173.67 in XP and get no quad sli selection. I talked with a buddy who got off the phone today and the tech at EVGA said no quad sli driver until next tuesday.

    I have also tried 174.53 in XP and no dice for quad sli selection. Vista runs ok but I don't like the scores. I get something like 16606 for one card with overclocks of 740/1125. I'm at 3.6 ghz with a q6600. I also think that the quad sli isn't running in vista. You can select it, but the scores aren't much better than a single card.

    I just got 16332 in XP with one card at gpu 735 memory 1125 and shader 1837

    I have a 780i with memory running at 800 mhz. It looks like my scores are cpu limited. The 790i appears to be the ticket. I have on on step up. Can you recommend any ddr3 for about 300 or so?

    Current drivers ( the public ones ) don't support SLI with 9800GX2s.
    Also, I doubt there'll be a 9800GX2 SLI driver for Windows XP.

    With 250-270$ you can grab a OCZ PC3-12800 or Patriot Viper PC3-12800 kit.
    Both using Micron D9GTR/D9GTS chips

    Quad-SLi will only be available at Vista due to limitation on XP and the drivers aren't ready yet for quad-SLI so you won't see any improvements

    Yes, It's disheartening when I tried quad sli in vista. I thought I paid too much as it wasn't much better than my two 7950 gx2. I am glad that it isn't running for my scores sake. Can't wait to get the new drivers.
    Thanks for the info on the memory.

    there is hope for one of these cards in XP.

    last 3dmark 06 test with one card in xp was gpu 745/memory 1140/shader 1862 with driver 174.53 = 16421 @ 3.825 ghz.

    that score seems very low man

    you should be in 19K range (assuming it's a quad core)

    Better overclocking or better performance?

    In other words, will you able to get 45k PP ??

    By the way, am I the only one who noticed Vince actually called the card a 98000GX2 ? (see thread title)

    i don't care about 1M

    proper performance is in 32M and that also translates well into 3D benching as well
