P67, X58, And NF200: The Best Platform For CrossFire And SLI

By published

Intel’s flagship X58 chipset supports three-way SLI and triple-channel RAM, while its fastest gaming processor is stuck with a far less-capable P67 platform. With multiple GPU installations hanging in the balance, which solution should you choose?

SLI Platform Performance: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call Of Pripyat

The S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat benchmark results are unexpectedly variable at 1680x1050, though the NF200-enhanced X58 three-way SLI platform appears to lead.

The NF200-equipped X58 keeps its three-way SLI performance lead through both 1920x1080 and 2560x1600 resolutions.
