  • Why can't they do something like this with consoles? :(

  • @sneakster1978 because consoles dont have the vram for it.. it even blows up with one monitor as it is with some games.

  • linus.....

    batman hates killing

  • @specialforcification I have the latest drivers for the GPU which is 11.9 but I didn't get the drivers for Motherboard and cpu yet. I'll try that. Thanks for reply!

  • Am getting only 63 fps on my 6870 D:

    My spec is:

    1090T

    8GB of DDR3

    Sapphire 6870

    Asus M5A78L LE

    OS: Windows 7 64bit Ultimate

    Anyone have any idea why it is running so slow?

  • @Nightmare1066 if your monitor is 60hz then you will only see 60fps max so the card will chill it self and perform lower in every game i've played on my pc COD crysis etc.. it never goes above 60 no matter what setting in benchmarks or anything

  • @JJROADSTA You 've got it wrong actually, it's possible to have more than 60 fps, I have 300 fps in Dead Island and some other newer games. If my screen is 60hz that means I won't be able to notice any performance difference with fps any higher than 60fps since 60hz is the refresh rate.

  • @Nightmare1066 honestly I have gotten more than 60fps but im telling the truth linus even said it on a 120hz monitor thing thats only how i know otherwise I would have still thought my monitor is displaying 2000fps in sims 3. your right you wont notcie much but you will notice the dips and lags.

  • @JJROADSTA Linus is a tech-noob to be quite honest ;) Follow math and physics, those are the true indicators to fps. Hertz is a measuring unit for waves, basically what 60 Hertz means is that the screen is able to refresh itself 60 times in a second. When the game is running lets say 180fps, that means your card is producing 180frames per second and that is your framerate is 180 but with a monitor @ 60 Hertz you are only going to see 33.33%, also the human eye can only see 60 frames per second.

  • @Nightmare1066 now im confuesed get what your saying but does that mean im kinda right?? in a way

  • @JJROADSTA Well no not really, you claimed that if my screen cannot refresh itself above than 60 Hertz then the game won't be able to produce more than 60 fps which is incorrect.

  • @Nightmare1066 but if it does not refresh fast enough then how are you supposed to see more than above the monitors rated hertz?

  • @JJROADSTA Dude, you 're clueless, am tired of explaining things to you, open a book and read something, please. Last time, You CAN have more than 60 fps in Batman Arkham Asylum if you turn the Vsync off, thats it, that was the point. I can have 150 FPS in Batman if I turn off Vsync. Even if I have a screen which doesn't even exist yet to show full 150 fps (150Hz refresh rate) I still wouldn't be able to see 150 fps because the human eye cannot see above 60 fps.

  • @Nightmare1066 in my first comment I said you will only be able to see 60fps. This is what you've basically told me so I was right and so were you ok i got some things wrong but we just went round in circles here.

  • @JJROADSTA The problem was I couldn't get past 60 FPS with my 1090T + 6870, you said I can't get past 60 fps because my monitor is 60 hertz which is incorrect. It was because Vsync is on, I just need to figure out how to disable it.

  • @Nightmare1066 the human eye can not see above 23.4fps, not 60. And yet 23.4fps in games seems laggy and not in films. Also 30fps in some games might be totally smooth and you can't see anything above that and in some games 30fps is going to look like much less than 60fps. Well this all depends on the game engine and how the FPS affects the speed of the game it self. This means that in some games even if your monitor is 60Hz you are going to see a difference in speed between 60 and say 100fps.

  • @bjuszczak6 Yea you 're right about that. My bad I said human eye can see only 60 fps, I 've read an article about it that reallistically human eye can see up to 300 fps but the brain can only process up to 12-15 frames per second, it dumps the rest because it is too much strain and too much information for the brain. The illusion of "smooth and crispy" vision is created by blurring when movement is occurring and it sharpens when there is no movement. Ex: Wave your hands fast in front of you.

  • i dont think he's seasoned enough either....

  • Dear Santa please bring this computer into my front door...

  • @Trollersarefaggggits YAWN.. didint even read it. hahahahahahahah but i can see your whimpering like a hurt dog. HAHAHAHHAHAH dumb faggot like you got ownd. hahahahah

  • @Trollersarefaggggits look at this raging whimpering dog. Poor thing should be shot. Prolby a mexican. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH ownd.

  • 46 x 3 = 138!

  • @ozstarlite You have 3 times more viewing than before.

  • at 0:50 he says so here in my lap but the captions on youtube says "Is here in my lap soght by police in us" WTF is going on?

  • loool transcribtion is dislexic

  • @ozstarlite If anything it's a disadvantage

  • @killzonekizza if anything your an idiot on food stamps

  • incredibile è una potenza sta scheda video!

  • Watch my unboxing! My card looks diferent!

  • is it 4gb video memory????cause sapphire radeon hd 5970 toxic also has 4gb vid memory

  • Half of batman is cut off on the action cams. That would get on my nerves so fast.

  • i have a hd6870 it rocks

  • @bfgfhell

    Me too

    Amazing card ;)

  • you lucky sob !

  • @LinusTechTips

    Is this on a single card? what res and settings?

  • @TheFailing1

    in one of the previous videos he explained it more, like on one of the 6870 review videos, and im not sure about the resolution but i think also the screens are each 46 inches

  • 138"

  • 3000 buck for 3 tv's?

    sure looks cool and show how well your pc handle all that stuff but at 3G's i'd go for a realy nice sony projector with real stupid resolutions and have a nice giant screen on the wall! in my opinion better than have a split screen sort of in between screens!

  • @jacksongt2 Most people don't think that through... I'm with you, I have a 120'' screen with and HD projector. I would never spend that much money for such a relatively small amount of screen surface area.

  • @jacksongt2 the advantage is you get 3 times the resolution with 3 monitors

  • @jacksongt2 not as a sharp picture though...

  • @2fast4all it depend on the projector you buy it, a friend of mine has a 360 on a stupid sony hd a 1080p native resolution on the wall i'll tell yea you dont need more than that!

  • @jacksongt2 You are missing the point the interesting thing here is that you have side views, like in a simulator, its not the same as having a huge big flat screen.

  • get a controller for games like this!

  • i want have a job like yours linus. congratulations for that pc you have

    you can find me a job ? i dont have one right now :(

    sorry for my english i am italian. bye

  • Linus can you tell me the name of your keyboard? Please?

  • i dont see how this relates to the 6870's capacity .................... it will be the same experience on the 5870 also ................. show us something that exceeds the performance of other graphic cards like the 5870!!!! for example, how abt crysis at high resolution?

  • @7METAL9HEAD7 uhm its 250 dollars and plus when has anyone done this with hd 5870 who fucking cares what amd card it is aslong as we get to see this and its no using a gay a nvidia card i am fire

  • tell us how the 3d stuff feels like with 3 monitors

  • Does that mouse/keyboard combination actually work well?

  • How many fps?

  • Please help me.. Ten years of effort, we successfully developed the most advanced "Wall Shuttle" in the world eventually. For paint and wallpaperin. Diy new invention Thanks! Ganxing.Ke

  • @chris1abramczyk You can just buy a cheap ass GT240 or upcoming GT 430 and use that as dedicated PhysX with you ATI as primary card. Just needs a simple lil hack to get around nVidias stupid driver block.

  • @ParasiteXX but nvidia only or ATI only usually perform better than ATI graphics solution / nvidia Physics solution. I'm sure your better off with a dual ATI rig or dual nvidia rig ;) it's an opinion not a fact . And i could be wrong in some cases but i'm describing a general thread in data

  • @MrMousekiller9 You cant get PhysX working with a ATI only solution. But fact is that Batman runs great on ATI cards, asuming you aint running any PhysX. Otherwise it works jsut fine like i stated with ATI and nvidia as dedicated PhysX.

  • @ParasiteXX i know you can't run a ATI card with PhysX (has PhysX is nvidia only feature) , what i meant is that if you want to do a dual gpu configuration , usually cards run better if the are both ATI or both nvidia cards

  • When is linus going to beat the first level of this game...lol

  • nergasm

  • linus try it with one more tv i want to see wat eyefinity with 4 tvs look like

  • How do you plug this 3 tv´s 1 hdmi 2 dvi ? no audio ?

  • Not enough.

    Grab MST HUB and connect up to 6 monitors.

    Gaming and watching movies in the same time... lolx

  • BEING PAID FOR GAMING

    My Dream...

  • Iwanna be that big of a geek too :D i just want to be D_D

  • what are the stats on the computer running this?

  • LMFAO the transcribe captions for youtube are sooooo fucked up! you have to see them!

  • @PCTechTalks "the matter traces back to the forefront" wtf? haha

  • @PCTechTalks I've got to be a keyboard positions at its deadliest opttion is

    WHAT?! LOL

  • @PCTechTalks It's like chinglish

  • Look Great :D Good Job Men

  • wow 'n'

  • Turn on the captions and watch it a second time XD

  • awesome

  • dammit, nice job men.

  • Comment removed

  • go 6 x Dell 2560 x 1600 res :D Monitors!

  • It's not the first time you're playing that game on your videos. XDDD It's your favourite game, Linus?

  • I will wait buying a new graphics card until Nvidia release the revised version of the GTX 480.

  • @GreenyPoop only 1 year to wait for new generation from nvidia.

  • @ZXRaziel actually its coming up this upcoming December, if there are no delays of course. Its called right now the GTX 580. A renamed version of the gtx 480 but revised to take full advantage of its GPU core.

  • @GreenyPoop Yes i know , but i was not talking about fermi , i meant the new generation of gpu's from nvidia.

  • ONLY ONE CARD?OMFG

  • @MrIbanez111 Yes but those screens are only 1080p tbh so its not that bad -_-

  • @vonkeonig

    1080x1920?

    that´s epic^^

  • Linus, give me your job and no ones gonna get hurt :)  joke x)

  • Also on this video he is still playing on 1080p Since 1080 is the vertical resolution but the horizontal resolution is massive 5760x1980 just do the math

    5760x1080 = 6 220 800 pixels

    1920x1080 = 2 073 600 pixels

  • @Rzrjo LOL that shut him up

  • @at0mbalm that shut me up are you dumb. fucking TVs dont come in anything higher than 1080p at stores samsung comes in 1920x1080 thats what i have yeah computer monitors come in high resolutions. shithead

  • @bradrhoades102840 i dont really care about any of this lol i just like how you got told loser hahaha fuck you

  • Is running off a single card? What is the res of each monitor? Impressive :D

  • You should do a FPS (First person shooter, for those who don't know) game on that, see how good it is!

  • Hey Linus what was your FPS on that?

  • I NEED a 3 screen setup. Obviously not that huge though haha

  • now if only they made 46" screens with a decent resolution it would be awesome.

  • @icecoldwolf since when is 1920x1080 not decent

  • @bradrhoades102840 Since eyefinity and nvidia surround came out.

  • @Rzrjo no offense your an idiot 1080p is full HD. big deal you can get 1200p and what not. no reason to act like 1080p is bad.

  • @bradrhoades102840 No offense i'm an idiot?

    You're the idiot, 1080p is good if you have a 22"-32" monitor but on a 46" it's crap.

  • @bradrhoades102840 1920x1080 is not decent for a 46" screen since 30" screens can pull 2560x1600. I'd like to see them scale a line of monitors to some crazy resolutions maybe requiring multiple cables to overcome the resolution limits of current video cable standards.

  • here are some benches its a dutch site but everyone can read grahps cant they?

    try this:

    tweakers.net/reviews/1856/8/am­d-hd-6000-serie-bang-for-the-b­uck-far-cry-2.html

  • AMD HD6870 is more or less equivalent to a HD5850 in speed.

  • @frostyfireman yeaa, they kinda changed the naming

  • @frostyfireman i heard it was equal to a 5770. look up timetolivecustoms he'll tell ya.

  • @derek56ace in price.... but not in performance its close to the 5850..

  • Imagine 3D Vision glasses and a card like GTX 480 that supports Physx? Playing that shit with those 3 screens would be even moar epic.

  • 6870 vs GTX 480 pls

  • @vioLence777

    the 6870 is made for the mid range to competetive against the gtx 460. the 480 is far more powerfull.

  • @archerharm1 Oh ok ,i understand now why the price is low

    anyways i stay on my 5970 even if i cant play BFBC2

  • @archerharm1 The clock is faster and the memory is faster, how can the 480 be more powerful then? Btw, the 5970 is more powerful than 480 By far and i just checked out reviews that all said that the 6870 was better, it also scored about 28k on 3DMARK.

  • @Nils3OWN

    the 6870 is a about the same as the 5850, and slower than the 5870.. the 480 is a diffrent architecture.. you can't compare speeds of the GPU the memory of the 480 as a higher bus then the 6870 so it has a higher bandwith... and the 6870 isnt designed for highperformance.. but for mid range

  • @archerharm1 your wrong the 6870 is like the 5770 look at the reviews

  • @Jorcamblaster you think i didnt? and i made this all up.. tweakers.net/reviews/1856/6/am­d-hd-6000-serie-bang-for-the-b­uck-3dmark-vantage-en-unigine-­heaven-20.html

  • for this crazy shit you need a whole gamer room, fuckin awesome

  • if i was there, earth won't know i exist.

  • Omfg , if I was there I would've been like WTF Z0MGG

  • Linus has the best job ever -__-

  • @sdoieqwfjhweoiuhasdo wondering what he study at university

  • @sdoieqwfjhweoiuhasdo - correction ~ *EVAR!* :D

  • @sdoieqwfjhweoiuhasdo why do newegg sells the hd 6870 cheaper than NCIX???

  • @kokuto1024 Because NCIX is Canada only I believe and Canada has a lot more expensive stuff than the U.S.A and I'm pretty sure your talking about Newegg.Com and not .ca hope this helps

  • @Electrotutorials65 No, he's talking .ca

    Though NCIX is usually more than happy to price match, so in the end everyone wins. Presuming NCIX doesn't accept a price match below cost, which would just be silly and wouldn't happen :p

  • @Electrotutorials65 damn that sucks .... I always thought that NCIX was in the US but , no wonder the site couldn't find my area code....

  • @kokuto1024 because its not in canada

  • @sdoieqwfjhweoiuhasdo serious? almost over 200 thumbs up under a week? omg

  • Lucky b@*%^#  :|

  • try playing poker

  • Your videos always have awkward endings :P

  • 6870?! WTF

  • @simobgbgbg its out since yesterday lol

  • Batman Arkham Asylum on the PC is better played with the Xbox 360 controller that's how I play mine

  • @1015287

    You dun really need a Xbox 360 controller

    A logitech RumblePad 2 is just as good, feels more smoother and is 20 bucks cheaper. Had mine since 2006 and never gonna trade it for anything in the world !

  • 6970? wtf :D

  • que suerte tienes amigo, saludos desde España

    lucky you, greetings from Spain

  • try metro 2033 3d max graphics

  • Seems like I am the only one that hated Arkham Asylum ^^

  • Linus your right arm is longer that the other? :P

  • 138 inches

  • @TheAuchamp1 aka my dick

  • Linus, why are you playing this game on an ATI card? Especially a lower end 6870. A 480 GTX would have much better performance with the included bonus of Physx.

  • BEST JOB EVER

  • lul you wont see meny videos from him for some time...

  • youtube to day is all about amd 6000 series....:D:D:D

  • no physx... u can clearly see the difference :(

  • 6xxx any good then ?

    or should i take advantage of the 5xxx price drop ?

  • @EmperorZhang66 If you're on a budget, I say go for nvidia. HD5000 series cards are no longer worth it.

  • @xin0710 i'm only looking at 5870 and 5970 so not really looking at nvidia. Been using them forever, wanna try something new. Getting amd system anyway so :)

    And the new catalyst drivers have just been rumered (without avivo :D)

  • Wait, didnt they change the naming convention, so that the 6870 is equal to the 5770 of the last line of GFXCards......

  • @KodessR inbetween the 5850 and 5870. Call it a 5860!

  • @KodessR Yup. It's most likely like this... 5770 < 6870 < 5870 < 6970 < 6990 XD

  • @xin0710 you forgot the 6850

  • @mushufreak I was comparing HDXX70s. I forgot he 5970. xP

  • Review the AMD HD3D Tech Please , and compare it to 3D Visoin !!!

  • Eyefinity is stupid. A human being only has 2 eyes, thus you're going to set up 3 screens, but you're still looking at " that one middle screen with your 2 eyes "

    A complete waste of money and all you need is one damn monitor.

    Hell i am using a CRT Montior, 17inch and the quality of my games is the same as the quality which someone uses a high end card with a high end monitor.

    Eyefinity = LAME.

    HIGH END VIDEO CARDS THAT COST A TON OF MONEY = LAME

    VIDEO FAILED.

  • @GatewayDXSeries Typical comment from a guy who is used to a small 17 inch CRT monitor with a 1024x768 resolution. I've been there... :P

  • @xin0710 um i game at 1280x1024 and its not a small monitor. I can see my games just fine and my performance is always superior. :)

  • @xin0710 CRT MONITORS FOR LIFEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • @xin0710 well actually i do plan on moving on to lcd, however 1280x720 all day , every day.

  • @GatewayDXSeries So basically, you're downgrading to a smaller resolution?

  • @xin0710 you can't game at 1280x1024 on a lcd monitor, 1280x720 is the normal resolution which is good IMO.

  • @GatewayDXSeries Ever heard of 1080p?

  • @GatewayDXSeries He's just showing how it works out when it's hooked up, Don't blame the video if you think Eyefinity sucks.

  • @Raay42 Blame the video? huh?

    i was just saying using 3 monitors for games is a dumb idea. And it is lol . You only need one monitor, because we only have 2 eyes. What are you going to focus on the middle screen, but look to the 3rd monitor because you see a wall lol

  • @GatewayDXSeries You should probably try it before you start criticizing the capabilities.
