Unigine Heaven Test Settings
While the Unigine Heaven test is more shader and tessellation intensive than it is memory bound, the Galaxy card sees a notable boost over the stock GTX 670 and creeps up pretty close to the GTX 680 card.
Great review. What a cool
Great review. What a cool card.
I’m glad you guys did a review on one of these custom cards with the extra VRAM. I’m very interested in the improvements of custom cards vs reference cards.
Clearly there are some advantages.
Just want to comment on the use of VRAM at 1080P. While i don’t disagree with you.
I would just like to point out that extra VRAM does come in handy when modding textures and stuff in games, specifically in Bethesda games. I like many others like to install custom textures for Fallout and Skyrim, because the default ones just aren’t very impressive anymore. Also because if you have a high end card you have tons of extra headroom horsepower wise. Anyway i have tons of texture mods for Skyrim and Fallout that can end up using literally all of my VRAM on my 6970 at 1080P in many areas.
Very nice review.
I’ve been
Very nice review.
I’ve been looking forward to seeing how this card stacks up against its similar competition for using NVSurround. Looks like a GTX 670 GC 4GB is the card to have. I too am looking to use this to texture ME1-3 as well as the monster known as GTAIV and Dragon Age.
Will there ever be a review of these in SLI?
Can this one card be used to
Can this one card be used to drive an HD TV, and 3 monitors in or out of eyefinity? I want to display a TV on on screen and have 3 monitor computing, not hardcore gaming but along those lines. I don’t play many games, but I’m looking for a card that can do this. I currently run 3 heads off of a 6950/70 and run the TV off the z68 gigabyte iSSD mobo. THe current setup works, but I’m looking to upgrade…
yes it can run a TV and 3
yes it can run a TV and 3 monitors. You just have to use the correct outputs for each display.
I have “ASUS Crosshair II
I have “ASUS Crosshair II Formula” motherboard. I bought two “Galaxy GTX 670 Gc 4Gb”for SLi. I put them in PCI slots, but they don’t work. I flash the CMOS of motherboard, nothig. The computer stay with this image: ” NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 VGA Bios V 4293 Version 80.04.31.00.3F Copyright (C) 1996- 2012 Nvidia COrp.” What is this? I also have a new motherboard “ASUS Crosshair V FormulA-Z” which I have not installed it yet. What should I do? You have any idea what might be? Thank you.

@Chris
Yes, one of the cards
@Chris
Yes, one of the cards should fit your motherboard. You will most likely have to use the molex adapters that come with the card to properly power it.

Thank you very much for the info

Unless the psu is from
@chris
Unless the psu is from a name brand like enrmax/ozc/antec/thermaltake/beQuiet etc., i would not risk destroying hardware to save a couple of bucks. A psu is the most important part in your system and the more stable the power source is, the better.
I would look at one from corsair (or any monorail/1x 12v rail).
very silent and stable psu with alot of power would be the builder series 600/700w or the TX650. Doesnt need to be modular…
Needs to have at least 35A on the 12v rail incase u wanna look for a different brand..
