3x GTX 560 TI 448 3dMark11 Results

Thread Starter 
Recently decided to go for 3x Zotac 448's in my system. Went with the Asus P8P67 WS Revolution and sold my old motherboard to break even on motherboard cost. I sold my old PSU and spent $40 more to grab an OCZ 1000W. Here are the results:

I'm pretty happy overall with their performance. The graphics score is closing in on my friend's GTX 680 SLI setup. At stock with his EVGA cards, he hits around 19.2k.

The rest of my setup:

Asus P8P67 WS Revolution
16GB (4x4) DDR3-2133
3x Zotac GTX 560 Ti 448 @ 900 core/2100 mem
OCZ 1000W
256GB Crucial SSD

It's gonna be less Overclocking room with 3 since it's only as fast as its weakest link, however, even if you push 20mhz on core, you're getting a huge boost considering it's on 3 cards.

Nice setup though dude! That motherboard is a great investment for the future. Down the road, (way down the road), you can sell your cards and buy a 700 or 800 series card.

I'm starting to see instability before I see artifacts. They get pretty toasty in benchmarks - the middle card usually seeing the most heat. Hits around 90C briefly with about a 78F room. This morning while it was nice and chilly I ran this benchmark and it only hit 82C. Morning benchmarking ftw! But yeah, I can't go too much past 900 core/2100 mem I don't think. I may try it tomorrow and see if I can squeeze a bit more out.

You need to tripple Antec 620 mod bro! Remove the IHS of each card too! You'd have temps around 40-45C max. My 560 clocked to 990Mhz 1.087V maxed to 42C. Its nice! You should consider it! And you can get the antec 620's for like $40 at microcenter....

I should also mention, I've never had a setup like this before and I've never seen power draw like this before. During benchmarking, I'm seeing 8.4 amps from the wall and it hits 1050W from the wall too, haha.

Yeah I was thinking, maybe a new case to house such a beauty would be your next investment. And as somebody else was mentioning, search up "NVIDIA GPU THE MOD"

i've done that with my 2 560 Ti's, it's a lot of fun and VERY effective.

Yeah, I'm still rocking an Antec 900 v1 case with these 3 suckers in there along with a Hyper 212+ cooler and a few 3000rpm 120mm Kaze fans. Any suggestions on a cool case? Something sub $200 would be nice. I've been briefly looking at the market. Whatever I get must have a nice big side windows with some kind of fan blowing directly on the 3 gpu's. It helps TONS to have that. I'll take a look at the gpu mod you guys speak of.

Wow, 1050 watts is crazy tongue.gif Also, how do you like the performance of those high RPM deltas?

They work insanely well for air cooling honestly. They are noisy, but it really doesn't bother me. It's a performance rig - it's allowed to be as noisy and use as much energy as it needs wink.gif Anyway, I have them configured for use on my Hyper 212+ 1 is mounted as a push through the cooler, then the second one is mounted on the rear of the case exhausting heat right off the backside of the cpu cooler. The CPU see's 60C tops at 4.5GHz. I've never seen the package go above that. In my next case I may honestly load the whole thing up with these fans - they are ridiculously effective. This is the fan I'm talking about: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185054&Tpk=3000%20kaze
