@sabbathcrazy lol it takes 3 graphic cards to beat a single gtx 590. no disrespect but your 3 gtx 280 would lose in performance, and also GTX 280 doesn't support DX 11
@fergoway2go well thats not really fare cuse a lot of 280's are able to be super clocked like his is to about 290's (some like mine and i belive his come from bfg that way)
@LeisureCentury - That's funny I've never seen a quality video card PCB board bend from heat. In fact these cards where made to with stand temps over 80 Celsius. Of course they don't run that high if you adjust your fan speed and have a case with good airflow.
@doradus1990 - That's funny I have Tri-SLI plus a PhysX card which = 4 cards and my video card temps are 60 - 65 Celsius under load. What are your temps?
all i meant was with the PCI-E cards so close together the air fan/blower would be in direct contact with the pcb from the next card along so that surely means very little airflow, just seems like they would overheat considerably without a system like water cooling
but in all honesty, im never going to have the money to go into 3-way sli, next thing for me to attempt is either overclocking my cpu/gpu or 2-way sli
installing the cards would be the first things i would like to do after i install the motherboard, PSU comes the last. its a cosmos case, it looks crowded coz the PC has almost everything in it, !!!
the only reason im really not liking the idea of 3 way sli is that there is no space between the actual cards = really bad airflow meaning that overheating would be a major issue, its different if they were watercooled, but a setup like this is just bound to end up bad
@doradus1990 not really, check out maxishine's setup , and watercooling never leaks if installed properly and a pre run test without power to anything but the pump and radiator fans if theres no leaks on the pre run you're fine
@mastermoshy 8800 gtx waterblock does not flit on gtx 280.This 3 Way SLI setup works well for 3 years without any issue.For calling me an idiot i BAN you.Have nice day.
I think it is sad that you need to buy 2 or 3 high end cards to make new games run smoothly. Soon your computer need to be big as those old "super computers" from 80´s so you can fit all your 30 graphic cards in it.
Dude too much Cable clutter. Need some Cable managerment or perhaps longer liquid cooling tubes. Allows more time for the heated liquid going back to the radiator more time too cool. I know a guy have 10 feet of liquid cooling tubes. and Manages the tubes very well. Looks more like under the hood of a car.
you can have overclock every commponent eaven with high viltage iff your temperature doesnt cross 60 celciuss its 100% safe iff you run it about 65-75 celcius it can be risk somethink will die after year ore 2 but not must
wow you dont even put care when you ensamble that pc, you looks like a mechanic repairing a car engine instead of installing a very expensive hardware
@Snodgers3rdclass true bro more hair more shit to do i have no time to fuck over my head im not girl i prefer clean and cool head not stinky and hairy
@tommyakatytheman Wow, you're pretty observant! He also is wearing an army shirt, has two arms, and is working on a computer! And I'd make an educated guess he probably has two legs also.
When this video was made those cards cost 650 bucks each. Now you cant get those evga gtx 280's from comp usa for 240 each. Three way sli for less than 750 bucks NOT FUCKING BAD in just a year.
:: lol :: Hopefuly you get 100 FPS on GT4. MOST stupid obtimized game for pc. I think we need a super computer to play that STUPID game. So sad to see that they are pushing US to buy game consol !
I am running 3-way GTX 280's and i get worse performance then running 1 card, i have a corshair 1000 watt and quad core 9650 3 ghz with 8 gig ddr2. I think the problem is the mb P7N diamond 780 i sli!
I'm having some serious problems with the performance of 3 way sli on these identical gtx 280s, 1 to rule out the power connectors, how did you connect the 3 cards to the psu? I have on the first card molex to 6 pin, pci-e 8. On the second card molex to 6, pci-e 8. On the third molex to 6, dual pci-e 6 to 8. Should it work?
iff some games have only aa or af x8 you can set aa af x16 in cntrol panel(override by any aplications)-and in every game no matter what aa you set x2 x4 its will be all the time aa16
not all games support 3 way (you can try change SLI preformance mode in control panel-some games work on diffrent settings)i wass have some tools program to get more 3 way-quad sli settings but id remember hows was call
and 3 way sli get more preformence on res 1920x1200 and higher (first try with far cry 2 and crysis-this games fully fupport 3 way sli)
Yes it really an amp problem, I'm going to buy a $30 5&1/2 inch bay 350 watt supplemental psu to run 1 of the gtx 280's. It's includes the necessary 6 and 8 pin pci-e cable on a single 12 volt rail with plenty of head room to work the card no problems. The Quattro has 4 rails hence the name, and with 3 cards and only support for 2 it was too spread out to give "AMP-le" performance. club4ghz is lucky. Antec probably trimmed the quattro since his model. Which is why mine didn't work as expected.
I had the antec quattro and it barley ran my 295s i had 2 amp leeway. so i got the one i sent u the entire system runs alot better. are you just going to put the other psu on top of the case or what?
The Quattro 1000 Watt is designed to support 2 cards, mine runs 2 of the 280s with 10 amp leeway. It's good, even great at this easy street. I get superb performance with sli at these OC clock speeds: 677 core, 1457 shader, 1323 mem clock. Very stable no artifacts. I bought the FSP X5, its a supplementary psu capable of running 2 GTX 200 series cards. (Likely 2 260's) But it has no trouble running a single 295, or one of my OC 280s. With this I can get all three cards to work at OC specs.
I have a Antec Quatro 1000w on a EVGA 780i FTW MOBO, Quad Extreme QX9650, 2x EVGA GTX295 Quad SLI, 4 Gigs of Dominator PC8500 RAM w/colling fan, 1x 150 gig Raptor,1x 500Gig Seagete, 1x 750Gig, 2x Sony DVD Burners, 1x DagerDen Water cooling system w/DD12V and Dual Rad & 6 120mm Fans all of this is housed on a CM Stacker 830 Evo= PSU failure under load pc Shuts down lol :( Need a new 1200w PSU Antec Quatro 1000W does not cut it!
Actually it recommends 1200 w, but I don't care, not now I'm not returning the Antec quattro 1000. This is my first build and I didn't even know they made psu's higher than 1,000.
it should support 3 oc 280s and a i7 920 oc to 3.5 ghz right?
I'll likely do a dual psu ghetto jerry rig, I have plenty of space in the nzxt tempest all I'd have to do is take out the bottom hard drive bracket and move the 120mm intake fan up two bays and use a 450 watt psu venting out the front. That might even make the rig more baddass.
Nope, Quatro 1000w wont run my 2 GTX295's, you might be able to to get away with it if you only run like one 1 HDD and 1 Optical Drive and no extra fans maybe then you can do it.
i wass have 3 8800 gtx Watercooled before thisones and i decide not watercool thisones-its not worth off 3 watterblocks price compairing to preformance bonus OC AIRvsWC
I wasn't even being mean the first time. I even said lol, i was just trying to tell him. Even though that would be cool, darksoul844 apparently didn't get it. It's all good though =P
darksoul844, ok because you really think you are so smart, why don't you show me an article that shows a person running three GTX 295's in fucking HEXA-SLI. There are TWO GPU's so you can only put 2 in a system and run them in SLI, which would be quad SLI.

Yes it really an amp problem, I'm going to buy a $30 5&1/2 inch bay 350 watt supplemental psu to run 1 of the gtx 280's. It's includes the necessary 6 and 8 pin pci-e cable on a single 12 volt rail with plenty of head room to work the card no problems. The Quattro has 4 rails hence the name, and with 3 cards and only support for 2 it was too spread out to give "AMP-le" performance. club4ghz is lucky.

The Quattro 1000 Watt is designed to support 2 cards, mine runs 2 of the 280s with 10 amp leeway. It's good, even great at this easy street.

I bought the FSP X5, its a supplementary psu capable of running 2 GTX 200 series cards. (Likely 2 260's) But it has no trouble running a single 295, or one of my OC 280s.

evga recommends 1000w so i would say he has atleast 1000 or a really good brand with 850w
darksoul844 2 years ago
Actually it recommends 1200 w, but I don't care, not now I'm not returning the Antec quattro 1000. This is my first build and I didn't even know they made psu's higher than 1,000.
it should support 3 oc 280s and a i7 920 oc to 3.5 ghz right?
UssenterprizeDv2 2 years ago
opps my bad i thought it was 260 lol
yea antec is a pretty good brand so ur okay wit that
u'll know if ur psu isn't right fps drop and etc :)
darksoul844 2 years ago
Well this guy has more hardware in that thing than I will, he has watercooling. For now I'll cross my fingers with an identical psu.
UssenterprizeDv2 2 years ago
it should work :)
if that fails then go wit a 1600w or dual psu :)
darksoul844 2 years ago
I'll likely do a dual psu ghetto jerry rig, I have plenty of space in the nzxt tempest all I'd have to do is take out the bottom hard drive bracket and move the 120mm intake fan up two bays and use a 450 watt psu venting out the front. That might even make the rig more baddass.

yup good luck wit ur build send me pics once ur done :)
darksoul844 2 years ago
Will do, hey thanks for the ideas.
UssenterprizeDv2 2 years ago
Nope, Quatro 1000w wont run my 2 GTX295's, you might be able to to get away with it if you only run like one 1 HDD and 1 Optical Drive and no extra fans maybe then you can do it.
djjmp3 2 years ago
The GTX295 runs on 2 PCI-E 6 connectors right. Yep Quattro doesn't cut it, likely to never buy from them again. Next time will be Corsair.
UssenterprizeDv2 2 years ago
Actually they Run on 1x 6pin & 1x 8pin

I wasn't even being mean the first time. I even said lol, i was just trying to tell him. Even though that would be cool, darksoul844 apparently didn't get it. It's all good though =P

darksoul844, ok because you really think you are so smart, why don't you show me an article that shows a person running three GTX 295's in fucking HEXA-SLI. There are TWO GPU's so you can only put 2 in a system and run them in SLI, which would be quad SLI.
