Best Graphics Cards For The Money: November '09
There's actually a lot to discuss in this month's column: the introduction of AMD's new Radeon HD 5000-series GPUs, Nvidia's new GeForce GT 220 and GeForce 210, availability of previous-gen high-end cards, and the state of the graphics war in general. Read More

Next-Gen 3D Rendering Technology: Voxel Ray Casting
A little while back, we discussed some of the benefits and disadvantages of ray tracing. Today, we're going to be talking about another potential successor to triangle rasterization: voxel ray casting, the subject of much research by id's John Carmack. Read More

8 GB of graphics RAM enough for you?
Have the need for speed? Check out the Asus Mars GTX 295, which its maker claims to be the fastest video card on the planet at the current moment. It set the world record in 3DMark with a score of X25057 just before Computex, and now it’s basking in all its glory at the show.
Asus had these running Far Cry 2 at the show at a mind (and monitor) blowing resolution of 3840 x 2160. Put two of them together for a quad-SLI setup with 8 GB of graphics memory.
We haven’t gotten one in our labs yet, but we hope to soon. Until then, check out our GTX 295 vs. GTX 275 comparison.

GeForce GTX 295 Vs. GTX 275 SLI: When Two Are Better Than One
You're a gamer. You have an SLI-capable board. Do you buy the GeForce GTX 295 or a pair of GeForce GTX 275s, based on the same GPU? We got our hands on SLI'd 275s to explore the performance versus "SLI on a card."

GeForce GTX 295 In Quad-SLI
Previews stole the thunder from Nvidia’s GTX 295 launch, but a new driver promises to expand its performance lead. We matched it against the best-performing CrossFireX and 3-way SLI configurations.

GeForce GTX 295 Performance: Previewed
After a frustrating second half of 2008, Nvidia is looking to start the new year off by reclaiming its single-card performance crown. We got our hands on an engineering sample GeForce GTX 295 to give you a taste of what you can expect in two weeks.









3840 x 2160? I'll be content upgrading to 1920 x 1080
I would love to see what 2160p look like though...
It's just a beast! with a price tag to match im sure....
Gives me a hard on
Man, that's insane. Well if you can afford it why not. Even so it will probably be outclassed by 40nm and 32nm DX11 solutions in a few months.
Can it play Crysis?

Doubt it. Nvidia and ATI don't usually release dual GPU cards at launch. GTX 380 or what not need to be twice as fast as GTX 285 to beat this card.
I believe the correct term is QFHD, not 2160p, and the monitors need four cable connections to display that resolution.
sweet!
God how much is it????? humm 1000???

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't one 8800 easily beat two 7900 cards in SLI? I know its not exactly the same as a dual GPU board, but the principal is the same.
sweet card but bad timing. new series will come out before 2010 so why not wait for gtx 3xx / ati 5xxx series
While it may be impressive I can't see anyone logically spending so much to get such performance. It sure isn't going to be cheap and lets face it at this time any large investments in GPU's will be in vain with DX11 in the not so distant future.

you aren't completely right, but you aren't wrong either.
2160p is the resolution in progressive scan. QFHD gives the same information that 2160p does.
It's like saying FULL HD or just 1080p. they're both the samething

Thats a dumb question.... if it can play Farcry2 at that rez I'm sure it can play Crysis.
A thousand limited units for a thousand dollars each. Try googling it
Hmm this just reminds me of the 3dfx way of making a card more advanced.
All i know is i want one....
I would agree with others saying that it is better to wait rather than shell out a bunch of cash now on an extreme gpu. With the smaller die coming out not too long from now, we should see a little bit better overclockability and energy efficiency. Not to mention DX11...
But whatever. If you have the money to buy now and later, i guess you can afford this beast. I kind of think the timing of this gpu is a little late though...
If you are even considering this then you don't care if you need to upgrade it 6months for another 5% gain in FPS. Cause you already have money out the A$$
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't one 8800 easily beat two 7900 cards in SLI? I know its not exactly the same as a dual GPU board, but the principal is the same.
I believe 7950 GX2 easily beats any 8000 series cards until the G92 core 8000/9000 cards.
Thats a dumb question.... if it can play Farcry2 at that rez I'm sure it can play Crysis.
Have a sense of humor, any card can run Crysis if you run it at 320*240.
But will it BLEND?
But will it BLEND?
oh god no lol.
But will it BLEND?
I'd have to think on that... can a 6800GS play it at that rez?

I would suggest holding off on expensive video cards until DX11 cards are out. And its just around the corner
i like the appearance...like the engine covers found in cars. plastic, yet, good enough.
....that's just stupid really. No one needs to play games at that res!!
Umm, may I borrow it after the show??!
that is a large card.
Please... Pretty please??
GTX285 is only mildly better than GTX280.
So this thing should only be mildly better than the GTX295...
It's gonna be obsolete by the end of the year anyway.
lol i will get one just for crysis. It might play at reasonable frame rate on my 1440 x 900 screen.
