Which Card Run Better ?

[Dunhill79]

Good Day All, I need your view regarding my new display card, 2 unit card Asus ENGTS450 Direct CU OC in SLI mode or a single Asus 560ti, The question is which one is faster ?....

Thanks in advance.....

The GTX 560 ti would run noticeably faster

 

[hapkido]

The single gtx560ti should be faster.

They'll be about the same http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/316?vs=330 (just multiply the gts 450 by 2) but the 560 ti wil be much quieter and more effiecient

It doesn't work that way. You don't get double the performance of each card. On average, it's probably closer to 70% extra with the second card (depending on game, resolution, etc.).

While in some demanding games you might get close to 200% (i.e Metro). performance on average runs about 150 - 175 % of a single card in SLI....bit less w/ CF.....For example, In Metro 2033......however the dual GPU cards (6990 / 590) are abysmal in S.LI / CF

570 goes from 27 fps to 54 fps in SLI
580 goes from 33 fps to 65 fps in SLI

Here's some data using the games in Guru3D's test suite (COD-MW, Bad Company 2, Dirt 2, Far Cry 2, Metro 2033, Dawn of Discovery, Crysis Warhead).

6850 - 170.89%
6870 - 161.52%
6950 - 156.78%
6970 - 156.81%
6990 - 118.50%

560 - 174.07%
570 - 166.60%
580 - 154.71%
590 - 111.46%

It depends on the game, the GTX 560 ti will run slightly better in most cases. I worded my first response wrong.

Thanks for replying my question guys.....looks like i will be using single GTX 560ti until i have enough money to buy another 560ti and make it sli mode.... thanks again....
