[Don Karnage]

Yes I've officially lost my mind. Should be here Monday or Tuesday for some 690 vs 670 SLI testing.

What are you going to do with your 670's?

 

[Durvelle27]

maybe i could borrow one

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I'll take a 670 if you need to get rid of one. Hopefully you're insane enough to do that

 

[skipsneeky2]

I foresee Don going with a second gtx690 soon enough,i don't think many people are giving up sli gtx670 unless they have plan to build the destroyer of worlds with dual gtx690 cards.

Don,do you build up 1,000hp hemi 426 motors to get cars like the plymouth duster and the chargers into the quarter mile in under 9 seconds as a second hobby?:d

 

[Shmee]

very cool.

What do you do IRL, it's like you can't resist anything computer related , do you work at newegg where you're surrounded by this stuff?

I swear... after a rainy day a Rainbow shows up and some how always ends in your back yard with a pot of gold!

Congrats!

 

[JAG87]

U crazy So how do you think it will fair against your overclocked GTX 670 SLI setup?

 

[joshhedge]

What are you going to do when the 7990's come out, or w.e., Don?

I think he knows it will perform exactly the same.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Clearly he'll stick with the GTX670 SLI and just use the 690 as a PhysX card. It's the logical choice.

 

[Ferzerp]

I keep considering this despite having two 680s. What is wrong with me?

The diagnosis is grim... You're a hardware enthusiast.

You want something that you don't have. Well, it's a better hobby than drugs

 

[Haserath]

Wow, I just noticed the other thread on 6/13 with the 670 sli testing... You sure change your mind quick.lol

Not to mention the 7850 you had beforehand.

 

[SickBeast]

Don are you selling all your old cards?

Are you going to do quad sli with 690s?

After following your gpu transgression over the past months, I also feel as if this is the logical choice.

Should perform the same

Quad SLI is in my future

Exactly. Quad SLI is definitely in the cards. Probably in a week or two.

What do you do IRL, it's like you can't resist anything computer related , do you work at newegg where you're surrounded by this stuff?

Depends on the day. Work 5 days a week as a manager for a bank and the other 2 at best buy so i could stay in the Intel Retail Edge program.

 

[SickBeast]
