I ran it again got 2 fps higher on the low same everything

Nice fasedww. Ya I have read over on the evga forums alot of people get that slight stutter/hitch at the start which skews the minimum fps at times and other times they don't get it. Odd to say the least. Could be a driver issue I suspect. I'm glad to see your results here since I was debating getting 3 470's vs 2 480's all week. I'm glad to hear with some conformation that 3 470's are slightly faster since that was the goal. I could have easily gotten 2 480's but choose not too since I have had very good results with my tri 260 c216's. I think as the drivers improve over the coming months so will the tri sli scaling. What do you guys think?

Oh and my 3 470 sc's came ino via ups tonight I'll install em tomorrow and post up some numbers soon after when I can.

Btw fasedww didn't I buy a used 7800gtx from you here like years ago? I remember that forum handle lol.

fasedww,

If you get bored and/or have the time, would you try the STALKER: CoP bench with the below quality settings?

Settings

If you don't have the bench you may grab it off of Guru3d.

Looks good. Thanks again

I've got an EVGA 470 coming for my second computer. I've also got one of those Acer 120Hz LCDs coming for it too.

I'll sound off how I like it mid next week.

I'll probably end up with 470 SLi eventually and use my old 260 for PhysX overkill

Kaguya · 04-17-10, 12:52 PM

Two questions: How's the fan volume compared to the last series? Also, do you let the fan auto or leave it locked? Currently I have my OC'd 260s at 50%... would that even be possible with the 470s?

Edit: Sorry, I guess that's three questions

**fasedww** · 04-17-10, 01:17 PM

I leave it on auto it ramps up according to temps works good.
