Crysis 3
Crysis 3 (DirectX 11)
Master the power of the Nanosuit. Armor, Speed, Strength and the ability to cloak are the ingredients of the most effective tactical combat armor ever created. Suit up! It's all yours in Crysis 3.
In Crysis 3 we have another great showing for the ASUS MARS 760 – it is not only faster than the GTX 780 as well as the GTX 780 Ti and the R9 290X when we look at average frame rates over our timed gaming sessions. Even better, the frame time variance on the MARS 760 is basically the same as the single GPU cards too.
This thing would be amazing
This thing would be amazing with 4gb for each GPU at $600.00. That’s where it needs to be for success.
I have to say that as
I have to say that as impressive as this card seems, the only value it has is in it’s compact design. You are paying for it’s size, not it’s capabilities. For around $600, (a bit more though) you can get 2 GTX760 with 4Gb memory each and put the bacplates on yourself. Remember, the memory on SLI setups doesn’t stack so the Mars doesn’t actually have 4Gb of effective memory. I had 2 4Gb 760s in SLI for around the price this card sells for and was very impressed as they outperformed the 780! Now that you can get a 780 for around $500 and a 780TI for around $700, why would you want the middle? Save a couple hundred with the 780 and have great gameplay or toss a couple hundred more out there for the TI and beat a Titian’s back side!
MadeLoveToByASUS is my screen
MadeLoveToByASUS is my screen name on the PCPER Podcast because I’ve never been “F*CKED” by ASUS. They always amaze me with the quality and performance of their products. ASUS is the best in my book and will remain there as long as they continue the path they’re on. Love the card, but I have 2 ASUS 780ti’s via SLI in my system and it rules all I’ve ever had. Keep it up ASUS and PC PER. You are both the best.
Love,
ASUS’ #1 FAN

Well, it’s 2GB per GPU. Its
Well, it's 2GB per GPU. Its ALL being used, just by separate GPUs.

Thank you 🙂
Thank you 🙂
my guess is that Asus didn’t
my guess is that Asus didn’t know Nvidia was going to release the 780ti…and they already had this card in the pipeline. If the 780ti didn’t exist, this would be a sweet card.
Too late, Asus…good luck selling these things.
cool card but… 2 760 are
cool card but… 2 760 are not worth that much, if would be a perfect card if it used the full gk104 (770)… also 2GB per 760 is not so great considering the level of performance it can achieve without the vram being a bottleneck…
so yes… 2x 760s if you have a MB with enough space is a much nicer deal.
still, a cool card.
Hi PCPER thanks for the
Hi PCPER thanks for the review… I am wondering how 2 of these cards would work in quad SLI. I haven’t seen any benchmark numbers anywhere yet… Plus I haven’t seen any available yet to buy? Any ideas when or where to buy them?
thanks
