My new toy

It is 4 seperate cards.

The is to much hit and miss with 3d mark. if you have seen some of the results that we have done you would be amazed.

All websites that put up hardware scores are irrelevant because they are test in enviroment controlled labs with cards and mainbaords that are single run made items that are made for this situation. They are not items plucked from a mass production run.

Tey dont take into account real world enviroments (yes air temp can change a 3d mark score. we proved it) also they dont account for mass rum production items and the slight defects that happen.

We have matched toms hardware, atoms and a few others testing with exactly the same had ware and gotten very different results.

At the end of the day EVGA got a name because some person did a review that got attention and it went from there.

I will only ever by Asus Republic of Gamers mainboards becuase they are purely designed for gamers and nothing else. They provide functionality and add ons that no one else does. ie my NSE comes with the fusion waterblock inbuilt so when i water cool i dont have to fit 3rd party waterbllock. aslo the overclocking setup is second to none and i can clear my CMOS without opening the case. Find an EVga mainboard with half the functionality as a ASUS ROG board and i will buy it.

I cant see four Pci e 2.0 x16 slots



Quad GPU but not Quad SLI

i said quad crossfire

Supports ATI CrossFireX technology, up to Quad CrossFireX

Yes i agree for the everyday gamer Asus is the way to go but for people who think 3dmark scores mean everything EVGA has proven they are the ones to beat with this new board. Asus has so many extras on there mobos its great for most users just not the crazy one that use Liquid nitrogen to cool their system.............lol

Yeah real ground breaking stuff from EVGA. The Asus P6T6 Revolution was released about 3 months ago and it runs quad sli.

Asus is aslo realeaseing a board that will run tri sli and tri crossfire at the same time.

So believe the hype and keep reading irrelivant 3d mark scores.

Really you said sli here must have been a typo ay.

Anyway we could just go forever but lets just say Asus is best at mobos but EVGA ftw when it comes to Graphics cards

and i would like to see some of your scores you got with your systems if i could that would be great

I will have to agree that ASUS own every EVGA board on the market but graphics cards i would have to say i wouldnt touch MSI and Zotac with a 20 Ft pole but the rest of the brands have enough reviews and ratings to say that they are better.

I am getting a POV 285GTX 2Gb and i havent seen or heard anything bad about POV.

Yay go POV who are they haven't heard much about em. my gts 250 was MSI and i had no problems with it, it overclocked well and ran good.

Good stuff mate loving the dual 24" and 285's good system i wont to get a second Raptor for raid but man 6 1TB drives dam thats a lot. How come u only have vista 32bit? Nice ram where do you order your parts from?

Better than spending money on the wife.

1 300g raptor get u about 120mb per second sustained transfer rate. 2 get u about 210-220mb per second sustained.

The only real reason for 64B is so u can use more than 4g of ram.

Im waiting for the 2tb Wd black drives so i can replace my 1tb's with 8 2tb's

nice sounds good the only way you could improve is with a 64bit os but its not much really.

i got my free redemption to windows 7 64b being mailed soon i hope

excellent windows 7 will be great
