I have two gtx275's in SLI and they perform really well together, they scale really well if you look at the benchmarks. I dont know why but I just plain dont like ati, or AMD for that matter (same thing really). they come across as cheap and kinda naff really, thats the general vibe i get anyway. the new 5 series cards do perform very well though! i just cant wait til the gt300 chip is released, hopefully itll blow ati out of the water.
You're wrong, the 5870 is a big failure from ATI. It is not faster than the old GPU solution by nvidia GTX 295 (being outdated now a year old) and 2 GTX 275's beat a GTX 295 =) .
Did I mention you can get 2 GTX 275's for the price of 1 5870 ? ;)
I bought gtx 275 card for gaming, and this 2D and 3D switching is annoying. When i start playing a game, it lags for few mins and then it switches to 3D and it is normal. I hate it
@21boxhead, your so cool aren't you? Too bad your not doing reviews for electronics on YouTube, rather sit on your chair and talk big. Linus is the bomb.
@SoCalyankeefan, actually that is a complete sentence, you username being the subject, are being the verb (linking), and dumbass being the object (you). Now, since you've proven you don't know what a complete sentence is comprised of, please shit down, and shut up, for you have again proven that you are a dumbass. It's funny when people try to be all sassy and be completely wrong. You are one funny unsuccessful troll.
@DeeArrVoorhees My statement was "youre...dumbass" The username is not part of my statement. Also, I'm not a troll. I just felt I should correct someone who doesn't know the difference between your and you're so you don't make the mistake again. ;)
@SoCalyankeefan, simple spelling mistake twice, forgot to add E to the end. However, accidentally typing 'your' wouldn't imply that one can own a 'so cool', doesn't make sense. Good attempt on sounding smart though.
@bonfil1 if you have a high end cpu, yoru in trouble, like a processor with a 130 watt tdp, yeh, trouble. you should be fine with anything with 95 watts or less, but as long as its not overclocked, because that uses more watts, duh. however, saying that, your cutting it close, in fact, i think thats the minimum for this card lol. 650 watts would be much better, or more just for stability.
Actually i buy a new psu of 600w cooler master and its fine the only trouble now is the O.S im runing in XP but i will move to win 7, thanks to comment, in a few days i will upload a video of how is runing and benchmarcks!
These are the best value nvidia cards with performance almost as good as 285 nd much better than the 260. They are better than he 4890 because most games favor nvidia architecture
np ;) its only loud at 100% like most fans but if left on auto u will rarely hear it unless your in a very quiet room with nothing making noise. great card and glad i went with it over 2x9800s
Well I bought one GTX 275 this week and it crashes like a son of a bitch. I bought even a big power supply and that didnt even do the job. Im about to send it back.
I just got this card today. i put it in my new system and everything powers up. the only thing that is wrong is that there is no display and the fan on the card is not running. does anyone know what is wrong?
its not weird because an GTX 275 in SLI needs around 4X0 watt to run with an core2 quad cpu (even over clocked). So even a good 5X0 Watt PSU would be able to run on a system like yours.
Now read this: You asked if we foundit weired you could run SLI 275 with a 650W psu, I said 'nope' because it isn't. Each GTX275 requires 220W (I think?) That's 440W. Then plus that with your cpu etc. a 650W psu should be able to handle that. That's not strange at all. And btw. Stop calling people idiots, there is no reason for that :)
750W and 60A is not minium, but nvidia won't promise it works on anything less. It's there insurance so people wont whine if they can't run it on a 650w or less.
Yes that's with a high-end mobo, a 140W processor, 4 500GB hard drives in raid0, 3DVD drives, a liquid cooling system, and about 5 20W fans. So yeah don't tell me that's normal
Really, i didnt see the comparison in other videos. This is unique man. I wouldnt preffer 295 though. Id rather pay a bit more to get two separate cards with higher clocks. Also would think about OCed versions. Wouldnt you? Sandwich 295 is BS with cooling so with overclocking also. Single PCB is IDK? Good? Anyways produces more heat than single gpu card.
Hi i was wondering if some one could please get back to me on this. okay i want to get this card for my computer but i don't know if my computer can even handle it. Here are my specs: 2gb ram, nvidia geforce 8800GT, and a 2.4gb Intel E2220 dual core. thanks in advance
My power supply is only 200 watts which I'm upgrading to 680 watts. i am also upgrading my case to a Antec nine hundred. my mother board is a Intel 945GCT-M3 which is not amazing in anyway.
my ass, nvidia beats ati in almost every game, only loser games use ati better.
Gtx 275 < 4890, but the gtx 275 will do better because the way its made. ati cards are made with more stream processors and memory, but the architexture isnt as good as nvidia
I LOVE ATI/AMD but the 4890...with incredible overclocking and mostly aftermarket cooling can barely match the 285. Its not really a safe match cause you spend 5 mins with the 285 overclocking and the 4890 has no hope to even come close. Its just a stupid comparison done by hardcore fanboys. Just facts...
think before you answer because what i said is true, actually it was such a weird think they wrote whole articles about it. They overclocked the memory, shaders and core seperately and mixed them in all ways. The conclusion. a 10% overclock results in a 2-5% increase in framerate whereas in the same kind of article a 10% overclock gave a 5-10% increase in framerate. And don't call me a fanboi, i have nvidia cards myself and always will. The 275 oced isn't as good as i hoped, unlike the gtx 285
The GTX 275 and 285 both use the same GPU, the overclocking potential of these two cards is identical. They both have the same amount of stream processors too, the only difference asside from factory clock speed is 4 fewer ROPs and a slightly reduced memory bus width, which with modern cards means next to nothing for performance. If you throw 285 clocks on a 275, your performance will be within 1 or 2 frames at anything up to 1680x1050... and it will be stable because its the exact same GPU.
Very true, it can also help at higher resolutions too, but both depend a lot on driver optimization and application. The increase from 896 to 1GB makes sense, but I find some of these single GPU cards with 2GB of memory a bit ridiculous, especially considering how much bandwidth PCI-E 2.0 provides.
Well if we are talking strictly stock clock speeds, on average you get somewhere around a 10% FPS increase going from a vanilla 275 to a vanilla 285. Right now they are going for around $249 and $349 respectively, so essentially you are paying 40% more for a 10% gain in performance.
So in short, absolutely.
Other than your video card, what are you specs? Resolution etc.?
It's probably 1920x1200, and at that res you really could go both ways. If it's a new build I would buy the best thing you can afford, even if its not necessarily a good financial decision, but if you are replacing an existing card and just trying to make it another year or two, the 275 is a great value.
It's still a good card, you should be able to max most everything. I just bought the superclocked 275 for $255 on newegg Friday, its up to 330 now :).
Can't believe that card was release about 2 years ago lol. I have one sitting in my room somewhere. 8800GTS has done me some good. Right now I'm running 2 GTX 275's superclocked edition and overclocked at the same speed as the GTX 275 FTW edition. Pretty fast for some decent priced cards.
Yeah, my mobo is ancient, its an old P5B Deluxe with PCIE 1.1... just trying to get the last bit of use out of my computer before I build another from scratch.
dont worry about it. GTX 275 is a good buy. just get a second GTX 275 later on when u can afford it. tahts still cheaper than two GTX 285 (only a little more expensive than 1 GTX 285) and it will be ALL the power u'll ever need until GTX 380
What benchmarks are you talking about? The only benches I have found on overclocked versions of the cards compare them with other versions of the same card, not against each other. If you know of a benchmark that does, I would love to see it.
The highest clocked retail version of any 285 using air cooling is the EVGA GTX 285 FTW edition which is clocked at 702MHz, compare that with the 713MHZ of the EVGA GTX 275 FTW edition, do I need to explain what higher core clocks mean?

Sure it can oc. But the oc won't scale as well as the 4890 so in the end you'll be better off ocing a 4890 than a 275

think before you answer because what i said is true, actually it was such a weird think they wrote whole articles about it. They overclocked the memory, shaders and core seperately and mixed them in all ways. The conclusion. a 10% overclock results in a 2-5% increase in framerate whereas in the same kind of article a 10% overclock gave a 5-10% increase in framerate. And don't call me a fanboi, i have nvidia cards myself and always will. The 275 oced isn't as good as i hoped, unlike the gtx 285

The GTX 275 and 285 both use the same GPU, the overclocking potential of these two cards is identical. They both have the same amount of stream processors too, the only difference asside from factory clock speed is 4 fewer ROPs and a slightly reduced memory bus width, which with modern cards means next to nothing for performance. If you throw 285 clocks on a 275, your performance will be within 1 or 2 frames at anything up to 1680x1050... and it will be stable because its the exact same GPU.

the memory makes a difference when it comes to anti aliasing, other than that they are almost indentical in performance

Very true, it can also help at higher resolutions too, but both depend a lot on driver optimization and application. The increase from 896 to 1GB makes sense, but I find some of these single GPU cards with 2GB of memory a bit ridiculous, especially considering how much bandwidth PCI-E 2.0 provides.

so you would recommend someone to buy a GTX275 over the GTX 285 is their on a tighter budget?

Well if we are talking strictly stock clock speeds, on average you get somewhere around a 10% FPS increase going from a vanilla 275 to a vanilla 285. Right now they are going for around $249 and $349 respectively, so essentially you are paying 40% more for a 10% gain in performance.
So in short, absolutely.
Other than your video card, what are you specs? Resolution etc.?

i7 920 Stock
6gb DDR3 RAM(trying to get the lacecies faster)
Stock GTX 275
1920 x (1680..not sure about this one cause my rig is currently out of commission)
anything else?
Gamedestroyer12 2 years ago
It's probably 1920x1200, and at that res you really could go both ways. If it's a new build I would buy the best thing you can afford, even if its not necessarily a good financial decision, but if you are replacing an existing card and just trying to make it another year or two, the 275 is a great value.
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
crap then i guess i'm screwed lol. I built a new i7 a few weeks ago and got the GTX 275...the 285 was 2 high out of my budget..oh well
Gamedestroyer12 2 years ago
It's still a good card, you should be able to max most everything. I just bought the superclocked 275 for $255 on newegg Friday, its up to 330 now :).
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
It's still 255 with the World at War deal. You're looking at the wrong one because I just bought 2 today.

Yeah I was mistaken, think I was looking at 1792MB version. Anyway I get mine on Wednesday, can't wait!
I am currently on an EVGA 8800GTS 640MB, its been a great card but the 275 is going to almost triple my frame rates!
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
Can't believe that card was release about 2 years ago lol. I have one sitting in my room somewhere. 8800GTS has done me some good. Right now I'm running 2 GTX 275's superclocked edition and overclocked at the same speed as the GTX 275 FTW edition. Pretty fast for some decent priced cards.
coolboy499 2 years ago
Yeah, my mobo is ancient, its an old P5B Deluxe with PCIE 1.1... just trying to get the last bit of use out of my computer before I build another from scratch.
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
I didn't buy them at newegg sadly, but I already have World at War which I do not play anymore lol.
coolboy499 2 years ago
dont worry about it. GTX 275 is a good buy. just get a second GTX 275 later on when u can afford it. tahts still cheaper than two GTX 285 (only a little more expensive than 1 GTX 285) and it will be ALL the power u'll ever need until GTX 380

more like, all the power you will need till crysis 8 comes out lol

all the benchmarks show something else, so i don't buy your b/s
Thekilldevilhill 2 years ago
What benchmarks are you talking about? The only benches I have found on overclocked versions of the cards compare them with other versions of the same card, not against each other. If you know of a benchmark that does, I would love to see it.
The highest clocked retail version of any 285 using air cooling is the EVGA GTX 285 FTW edition which is clocked at 702MHz, compare that with the 713MHZ of the EVGA GTX 275 FTW edition, do I need to explain what higher core clocks mean?
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
you still beleive in the megahertz myth too, don't you?
Thekilldevilhill 2 years ago
lol, possibly the worst thought through comeback I have seen.
NateDawg80126 2 years ago
lol thanks for the entire conversation clarification. i guess i will just wait for abit then get the second card
Gamedestroyer12 2 years ago
i wouldnt want to use that card as phys x , , i cant even afford it
