GeForce GTX 970 SLI review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 09/26/2014 01:44 PM [ 69 comment(s) ]

We review Nvidias little money maker, the GeForce GTX 970 but this time in a 2-way SLI. As such we'll be going from fast to faaaaast. In this review we'll run the standard benchmarks, but we will also have a good look at Ultra HD gaming performance as well as a micro stuttering analysis with the help of FCAT. Join us in this review where we'll once again look at everything.

Great review as always Hilbert!

Though, 73 fps in Metro LL @ 1440p doesn't excite me, same goes for Crysis 3. I kinda expected more.

Weeeeeelll ... It's nearly double scaling, so that's not bad. Crysis slowly seems to get get more CPU dependent with its age though.

Right, that was 8 articles in 7 days you guys. Beer and pizza time ! Beer-assistant, where is she ?!!

Great review and scaling. At 4k we probably still need to wait 2 more years to play at decent fps and max details .

Thanks for the review. I hope you'll be able to find out what's with these frame drops. It's also weird to observe better scaling in lower resolutions...

So:
* 4k, 3D Mark and Battlefield = 780 Ti scales better
* The rest = 970 scales better

I think that it might be partially explained by 256bit RAM bus in 970.
