 GeForce GTX 480 3-way SLI review

 By: Hilbert Hagedoorn Edited by John A. Johnsen | Published: April 30, 2010  



Examining the dark matter

To be able to understand what we are doing today we need to briefly take you through some of the key components used for Lucifer. So I explained that we'll be using our DIY (Do It Yourself) built X58 based system

So before we start, some custom parts we will be using I want to show to you first:

  • Core i7 965 @ 3750 MHz (3.6 + Turbo mode)
  • Motherboard -- Intel X58
  • Memory -- Corsair Dominator 6144 MB (3x 2048 MB) DDR3 Corsair @ 1600 MHz CAS 7
  • 1200 Watt BFG Power Supply
  • Chassis Corsair Obsidian 800D

These are some pretty nifty parts and bare in mind, when you opt multi-GPU gaming, always have your gear right. You'll need that quality power power supply, you'll need that beefy motherboard and processor and then, you'll need a chassis with some very decent airflow keeping the graphics cards nicely chilled down.
