these threads are so stupid, its like driving a Lexus and having a panic attack when you drive past a Hyundai dealership
>go online

What do?
As a side note, I'm going to be really pissed if we can't do 4 way SLI with the 1080Ti.
How high end are you talking?
Highest end AMD card right now is the 480.
Well the highest end card that's worth buying.
>>55250139
>it doesn't exist
You mean, it isn't in stock right now
That's something different
>>55250163
Look again.
I'm not going to bother with the 1080 since it can only do 2 way SLI.
>>55250172
The 1080 is the fastest card available though, it is by any sane standard, a high end card
>>55250179
I would consider it high end if it wasn't gimped for no reason whatsoever.
I guess if you only run a single or a pair of cards it's fine, but at that point your performance isn't even significantly better than a mid range card.
>>55250197
Gimped? Lol what
>>55250202
Your eyes gone bad?
>it can only do 2 way SLI.
>>55250208
Scaling beyond 2 way sli is so disgustingly bad that only complete retards would consider it a viable option, not to mention the insane levels of latency more than 2 cards produce.
You must be trolling kiddo
>>55250139
>if we can't do 4 way SLI with the 1080Ti.
Nvidia literally already said they're doing away with 4 way SLI
Which was always for chumps anyway
>>55250172
wtf are u planning to do with 3-4 way sli?
>>55250222
>Scaling beyond 2 way sli is so disgustingly bad that only complete retards would consider it a viable option
Stop being poor.
>not to mention the insane levels of latency more than 2 cards produce.
Poor and uninformed. I guess it can't really be shocking how often these go hand in hand.
>>55250246
What a pity. I guess I have to buy Vega instead.
>>55250259
I operate on a different level.
>>55250272
Stop being a fucking idiot

>amd fanboy trying to stear the conversation away from the topic at hand
So, no high end AMD cards right now?
>w-wait for v-vega
Yeah I've heard that before
>>55250246
They are doing away with it because they have been using the same fucking connector for sli for over a decade. The new high bandwdith bridges are just two of the old bridges bolted together to achieve bandwidth, hence why the cards are limited to 2x sli.
Its why AMD went with XDMA - pcie has more than enough bandwidth for many, many cards.
>>55250304
>amd fanboy
I've haven't owned one of their cards since the Fermi disaster forced me to.
>w-wait
No card that is genuinely high end is currently available, my four GTX 980Tis outperform two 1080s, so I'll be waiting either way... The current offerings are simply not worth consideration as 'high end'.
>>55250308
You can do 3 and 4 way sli, just need an enthusiasts key or some bullshit like that.
>>55250473
Which Nvidia decided not to distribute, and will not continue to provide drivers for.
>>55250468
this - Titan cards were the true "high end cards" last gen , 1080 is just the high middleclass.

Consider suicide, Nvidia fag.
>>55250139
Who even does 4way sli?
>>55250172
3-4 way SLi or CFX is a joke.
scaling is horrible
99% of games are designed for 1 GPU
fewer than 3% of gamers even have 3+cards.
i'm glad we are doing away with the 4way SLi meme.

nigger I bought 4 580s and a 4k tv to pump that shit onto back when 580s were new.
2 way SLI is shit, 4 way SLI is fucking atrocious.
