Hey Guys, Thought i'd start a thread up for my results for this quad sli setup and also the tri sli results. I know quad results won't be much use to anyone, but should be a bit of fun seeing what it does, along with tri sli. Ive got a power metre as well for anyone wanting to know power draw for either setup Begin with some shots of qaud sli installed, i had to use molex adapters to power the 4th 4 way goodness in windows
This is the Tri Sli Power draw figures from the wall for anyone interested IDLE 3930k 3 x GTX 680 LOAD 3930K @ 4.8ghz 3 x GTX 680's IDLE 3930K 4 x GTX680 QUAD SLI LOAD 3930K @ 4.8ghz 4 x GTX 680's QUAD SLI
these 2 runs arent back to back, slight difference in cpu speed and clocks, but within very little margin of each other, will do some proper back to back runs over long weekend, through the whole range Have a bit of tuning to do on the quad setup me thinks, but still not a bad increase in points, and thats with the 4 x cards stock clocks, they keep cooler than what i thought, even with auto fans, although im overiding them just to keep things chilled 3 GTX 680's CPU 4.6Ghz 4 x GTX 680's cpu 4.8ghz
Slight oc on all 4 cards. snapped this framerate shot in the second gpu run, awesome! one amazing thing to note on 85% fan, the temps are under 50c during benchmark run on 3dmark11
Seems the Corsair 1200w is up to the task, haven't done any pro-longed gaming yet, but pretty impressed the psu is handling it and it was as easy as plug n play
Top effort on the power draw figures so basically we could run 680 sli and OC'd cpu on a HX850 no problem If only we had a 4x 480/580 setup to measure just to see how far we have come!
Heaven Benchmark, everything maxed @ 1600p Power draw whilst running it, about 100w less than 3dmark11
cheers man, its just a bit of fun for the long weekend, then i'll sell a 4th next week quad sli means i cant have my Asus xonar essense stx in, and i like my xonar and good sound what is the onboard sound on these asus rampages?
Nice scores mate This is for surround/3d or just fun lunacy? What volts do you have on the 3930k? I will start my OC adventure on that cpu tonight and try out quad sli 590s to see how they compare.
