poiopopo Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Just wondering if anybody has tried this card for DCS? I've got 4 monitors to power up (3 monitors @ 5760 x 1080 + 1 touchscreen @ 1920 x 1080 and was just wondering how a card like this would fare?
xxJohnxx Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I don't have a 6GB 780 but I have two 3GB 780s running in SLI. They do an okay job with DCS and I am getting okay framerates with one 1920x1080 monitor on high graphic settings (expect mirrors, they just kill my framerate). 1 Check out my YouTube: xxJohnxx Intel i7 6800k watercooled | ASUS Rampage V Edition 10 | 32 GB RAM | Asus GTX1080 watercooled

Ah ic, thanks for sharing, what sort of frames are you getting with SLI? I might go SLI sometime in the future with two GTX 780 6gbs. Perhaps the 6gb vram would allow me to match your frames, even with 4 monitors :thumbup:
xxJohnxx Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 In DCS I am getting pretty much the same frames with SLI as I do with a single GTX780. The tests I ran didn't really show any improvement over a single card. Howerver, I guess with 4 monitors you might get a improvment over a single card if you run them parallel (not in SLI). However, EDGE, the new rendering engine, might change things up a bit. Apparently up to 4 cards in SLI will be supported. Though, I guess only feature will show how that claim will work out.
