OverKILL3D ASUS Matrix Platinum GTX980 4 Way SLI Review

Unigine

Published: 13th March 2015 | Source: ASUS | Price: your soul | Author: Tom Logan

Unigine

There is a reason we say that we do these things so that you don't have to, and perhaps Unigine is the best example of this. Clearly at 'regular' resolutions a couple of cards is enough. It's only once you hit 4K that the Quad-SLI becomes a feasible solution, regularly doubling the frames per second of the SLI setup. So much power is available to us that it's impossible to set Unigine up in such a way that you go below the 60FPS VSync barrier. Yes, it looks as lush as you think it does.

i dont understand the extreme differences between websites with the same gfx cards 2xsli. like one site will say hitman absolution running at 75fps and you clocked 31fps at 4k. then the same site will have bioshock running at 67fps while you clocked 103fps at 4k. those are huge differences where you have a faster processor. the other site being a 3960.Quote

We run our games maxed out - you can only compare like for like - as in our tests with our other tests.Quote

Sweet, well Overkill3D. I bet Valley and Hitman looked awesome in 4k. Did you do any Tri-SLI testing at all? I know it still wouldn't be sensible or practical on air but was just curious if it would alleviate some of the problems on the driver/coding side of things.

Haha It did look fun and the AX1500i came in handy again, still I bet it was surprisingly low draw compared with the 295X2's ...just looking back to that Overkill3D the 980's smashed the 295X2's, that's pretty epic on air.
