3 way 295

GTX295 cannot 3 way SLI...it only got one gold finger.

GTX295 only can SLI a.k.a Quad SLI due to Dual GPU on each card

GUys..

delay fix

What i do is revert back to a previous driver... Im not going to risk by attempting to alter my win registery..
I guess just hav to wait another driver from nvidia... or 3dguru as well..

Crysis is such a headache. After 2 years, I thought they'd sorted out the issues oredi. Back when Crysis was launched, I played it with 8800GTX 2 way SLI at 2560x1600 on minimal eye candy settings just to get smooth fps n finish the game. Today with much improved drivers and 3 way SLI, I'm still suffering Crysis Warhead at about 30FPS at 2560x1600 using Gamer settings.




Y do u want or need 3 way SLI? Ask yourself that 1st. If you're not using a 30" LCD then dont waste time and money going 3 way SLI. 3 way SLI is only for those running top of the line specs for everything and run everything at 2560x1600 resolutions.

If u still wanna go 3 way, the requirement is 1200W and that better be a really solid PSU as a quad core, 3 way SLI rig easily draws 800+ watts at full load. If your house wiring is not good, u can even see your lights go dim, I kid u not. Now just think about ur electricity bill at the end of the month. So if you're not using a 30" LCD, dont waste your $.




I'm on 185.85 WHQL. Darn thing sucks and I'm too lazy to uninstall and revert to previous driver. LOL. Funny thing is games are ok but Windows damn slow sometimes. Especially the Taskbar thingy in Vista. So slooooooow.

Oh lol.

I can always remember when I turn on my computer using the main socket/PSU Back switch, the light flick on time lol.

And the computer is not on yet.

Another thing is, Whenever you are using a highwatt PSU, if you are using extension socket, make sure it is solid built lol. sometimes the extension socket blows.

Happened to me, after changing to solid built extension, then it didn't blow.

OMG! I totally forgot about the extension socket. Thank god I'm using the 90000A Belkin Surgemaster . If it was a cap ayam, I think terbakar oredi by now.

Racedriver GRID got some issue with Vista?? Just OK played in Xp, but go application not responding in Vista..

I can run GRID no problems on vista x64

i also no problem playing grid
but i only have problem when playing crysis warhead and mirror's edge

crysis warhead - stuck after 30min

miror's edge - when physX enabled it will stuck but when off physX no problem
aiyo!

wanna ask, i've enabled sli with my 2 8800GT. both are different brands, one msi, another is xfx. the clock speed for msi is 6600mhz, and the xfx one 640mhz.

when i run 3dmark06, there's like red flickers or some distortion in the graphics. when the xfx is master, there's distortion, and when the msi one is master, there's red flickers. even when i run some games also it's the same.

and 3dmark06 shows a result almost similar to a single card only. can anyone help?

Downclock back to standard speeds lor. 3DM06 is lidat 1. SLI doesnt show much improvement in the scores coz it's using a puny 1280x1024 resolution for default test only. U will see a big difference if u set it to test run at higher resos like 1920 or 2560x1600. At high resos u will really see SLI fly.

i see. it wouldn't be advisable to overclock or downclock either cards to match each other right?

eg like i downclock the msi to 640mhz to match the xfx one..

SLI is supposed to run all cards at the same speed. But urs are showing signs of artifacts so u better use stock clocks as in reference clocks by Nvidia.

tried to sli again just now, still didn't work. although i already set both cards to stock speeds, but still get the same results. no succes in getting them to work smoothly.

could the culprit be that the cards are a different spec alltogether?
coz when i check on gpu-z, both have different pixel and texture fillrate. if not mistaken there's a slight difference in the bandwith too..

You sure or not ? my acer aspie predator is equipped by 3x GTX 295 SLI , im using 41" HDTV and a LCD 35" panel.
