EVGA GTX 295 benching @the D :)

[Gautam]

Don't think he needed it though after all that intense benching.

P.S. The snow is only beautiful if you don't have to shovel the crap.

[Gunslinger]

Congrats on 40K+ simply amazing.

Any 3 x 285 testing coming up?

Dood! 3 x 285 is gonna gief 45k... maybe more!!! They clock like monsters, 3ghz memory clock with aircooling! Imagine ln2

the snow is really beautiful where i live. and you don't ever have to shovel it

Yeah, and the whole state goes into panic mode when we do get it.

Tell me about it

Anyhow, simple words cannot describe what I feel after reading through this thread, simply astounding to say the least! Congrats gentlemen, well done!

We thought about it just not enough time. GTX285 might have it's place though in some Marks

I dont think so. The 295 is essentially two '285, so 4 Vs 3 with some clock difference, I dont think the 285 can pull it back, not in Vantage.

Gotta love that dog man

[dinos22]

oh dear that dog is scary
you'd have to keep it well away from me if i every come over lol
i'm already scared of that beast

[Vivi]

LOL at that dog!! mean man that! my cat can give it a go though

NO lol... 295 is two gtx 260's on 55nm with more cores and performs slightly better than two gtx 260's in SLI, and performs worse than two regular gtx 280's in SLI...

The gtx 285 core performs about 10% better than 280 and clocks alot higher, 3ghz on the mem's on aircooling. There's no doubt 3x285 performs better than 2x 295's...

Looks to me that 3-way scales better than quad on vantage if these results are accurate

She is a lot more friendly in 'person' than in pics for sure .. at least until you put your hands in your pockets

yeah tri sli seems to scale alot better for sure than sli'd 295's will be nice to see if this does in fact hold true in the weeks ahead

[Achill3uS]

lol the competition called "Dogfather" has ended, we have the winner

3 GTX285's Tri SLI will pretty much scale the same as 3 GTX 280's Tri SLI. Remember GTX 285's clocks are higher than GTX280's clocks. But most of us who bench clock our GTX 280's to, and beyond what the GTX 285's clocks are. When both of these cards are clocked the same they perform pretty much the same. Unless voltmods or extreme cold allows the GTX 285's to reach levels no GTX 280 could, I doubt we will be seeing many surpassed GTX 280 TRI SLI scores.

I completely waved off the GX2 at the time but am giving the pair of 295s I have now a chance upon the upcoming "Classified" board since I'm betting on driver maturation breaking new ground, let us hope

btw awesome pic Vince...nice doggy

Not really, the 285 can reach alot higher clocks. And when concerning as much as 3 cards.. It will matter quite a bit.

[Ming@s]

Great Results Vince.

[xt0m]

Amazing scores

[V2-V3]

Oh my Vince, that is a nice CNC Mill that would have set you back a pretty penny!

Very nice benches! keep up the hard core clocking!
