    7950GX2 ...anatomy/bench@quad

    Let's start with some specs and inside photos of the 7950GX2 card....

    I got only 14..




    Firts of all the gap between the cards is 1.5cm...:9..and the cards are palying idle to 67C....i tried with a delta fan 120mm and the temp went down to 42C..



    The setup is the following..
    CPU : Intel 830(955XE couldn't boot on this mobo... )
    Mobo: Gigabyte 8N SLI QUAD ROYAL
    Memory : Twinmoss ddr2 5-5-5 2 x 512 533mhz(G.Skill PC8000 4-4-4-5 could't boot too and with this mobo , every memory module i tried , it freezes at 260 fsb....nF4 for intel sucks.. )
    PSU : Tagan 1100

    Mobo:


    The inside of the first card:


    The second card:


    The inner SLI bridge:


    7950 seperated cards together:


    It took me a little time to figure out how i could play Quad SLi...i found the way...but the result with this CPU ''botllenecking'' to the cards sucks!(i will upload them in a little cause they are on an other disk)

    With 4 Cards no luck to play Octal SLI..neither Quad...i only could play single SLi , that means 1 card...



    Cards plugged on the PSU


    Octal SLi never Done


    The whole setup






    Finally a pic for XS nVidia users..
    When Mercedes brought their C111 to Talledega years ago and blew away the closed course record did it count? Yes..
    That was a "factory" car and a "one of" that no one could buy and was never sold.
    Records are records and that is a fact so get over it.

    He probably means about octal SLI... + plus the drivers for 7950 are very new...they have been only released 4 days...

    Take a screenshot with 8 cards..

    wow 8600 in 3dmark05 lol. Presumably thats the 2.8ghz P4 doing its thing? Any chance of overclocking the 830 a bit, see just how cpu limited that thing is lol.
