i would say 2 of these would be bottlenecked from my system too

Dammit I bought this power supply to run 2 of SOMETHING. Now they're telling me that one of these is more than I could possibly need? BALDERDASH GIVE ME 2.

 

[freeagent]

Thats what I was thinking too!

Might hafta get the X2 just to be safe..

The X4 is too sick for me

 

[Brando]

i thought about a dual gpu card at one point but I heard they don't have as much driver support after awhile. At least with 2 cards you can use single card drivers and maybe even cram after market coolers on the things to get a better oc. plus easier to sell.

I think dual 5870's is going big

 

[rollincoaster]

Damn these cards are probably gonna be big. I'm hanging on to my 3870 until these suckers come out.

I don't know if you guys have seen this already

 

[xtkxhom3r]

dang that looks awesome i wish the vid didnt have that stupid music so we could hear what the guy was saying....

 

[Dapman02]

I just want to know how much my x8 by x8 in crossfire would affect the performance of two of these bad boys

 

[Niku-Sama]

you know i think its time we get past this 8x/8x in crossfire mode BS. i mean its getting old

we have gotten over it its called i7 16/16

 

[Shiggity]

I'm hoping Brolloks does another awesome review, P55 vs X58. Like he did with P45 vs. X48. (8x8 vs 16x16 was almost negligible for 4xxx).

very nice!

it definitely looks longer than my 4890's by a inch or 2

and why does it have one of those little motherboard speakers???

and its about time they stoped making those red pcb's....

Based on my measurements of the card previously, it should come in right at 11 inches. (just a tad less)

 

[xtkxhom3r]

hmm i would go and measure my 4890 but that means i would have to get up and i dont feel like it right now....lol

 

[Niku-Sama]

as expectyed, no master/slave chip set ups. silly photo chops

 

[Dolk]

I bear another gift!

so it looks like its equivalent to a 4870x2
