Crysis 2 Demo Triple Screen NVIDIA Surround Gameplay

[MrD0BR0]

Hey, what about the quality settings and average fps ? I am thinking of getting an SLI of 570's, also playing on 3 22" (5920x1080). Thanks!

[gBarsihahahaha]

@MrD0BR0 i play with the setting before the highest, cant remember how its called, without high-res textures and DX11 enabled. i get 30~45fps. two 570 should be able to max it and get 45+fps with no problems.

[MrD0BR0]

@gBarsihahahaha thanks a lot for the info ! :)

[DaMasterSarge]

@gBarsihahahaha What about 1 580?

[gBarsihahahaha]

@DaMasterSarge Well, one 580 wont do surround, since NVIDIA requires SLI for that.

And Next gen cards such as the 7970 are coming out already so i dont know if buying one now would be a good deal.

Dont get me wrong, the 580 is still the fastest card on the market, but is about to lose that status.

[DaMasterSarge]

@gBarsihahahaha What about the ones that are SLI enabled?

[gBarsihahahaha]

@simham05 With ATi Eyefinity you need to use two DVI's and one Active Display Port Adaptor.

Watch watch?v=RZAkCoaq384, he says so right at the beginning

ive gotta ask you 1 thing that has been bugging me, im looking into getting a second GTX580 for my comp, since i currently have 1 580 superclocked, and a GTX275 to run my 3rd monitor, if i got a 2nd 580 can both SLI them AND game across all 3 screens? bcuz if what the nvidia site says, the monitors always need to be plugged into the first gfx card as it takes alot of rendering powere from the second card?

sorry about the english, im to lazy to correct myself right now

[gBarsihahahaha]

@bladedush 2 nvidia cards in SLI will be in SLI and span across three screens. Both cards are used.

Two monitors are connected into one card, and the third on the other.

Not sure what you asked, but both cards are in SLI when you span across three screens.

[bladedush]

@gBarsihahahaha

thats great news for me thanks!

sorry i was kind of rambling, i was up late waiting for a world cup cricket match lol

but ill try and explain what i was mumbling about, on the nvidia website (in the SLI section about SLI configuration) when ever they show monitors being SLI'd together, they always show only 2 monitors running thru the SLI and always running thru the first card,

silent pc

[gBarsihahahaha]

@UFOterror

The background noise is from my A/C,as i said right at the beginning. The PC alone is quiet.

Very nice video, I have a question though. I've always thought of having 3 monitors but seeing as I only have a GTX260 I wondered if it would be enough for anything above RuneScape. Firstly, am I right? Secondly, if a GTX260 isn't enough what would you recommend for a 3 monitor card?

[gBarsihahahaha]

@PkerWhomerang

NVIDIA requires at least two cards for triple monitor setups, you would need a second 260. If you get another 260 I would say it would run pretty most every game (not a max settings though). If you want a better bang for buck, get an AMD solution, such as a 6950, they require only one card and since its a pretty powerful one, it will run very well. The only con with AMD is that at least one of the monitors must support Display Port.

@gBarsihahahaha Ooh yes I forgot about that, thanks for reminding me. Thanks also for the advice, I'll probably follow it after I get my i7 in June.
