560TI SLI for BF3

Antony101 · 27 Apr 2012 at 15:34

Does anyone here have any idea how battlefield 3 would run on a system with 560TI SLI. Can't seem to find any benchmarks online.

I have 2x 6950's which are about the same speed... Gives me solid 60fps with vsync about 70-150 without. (depending on situation, map etc)

What settings this at? High?

Ultra + 2AA

Just textures on high and motion blur off - mainly because i find it really annoying..

Nice, may have to look at grabbing another. Will my power supply be good for SLI and some CPU/GPU overclocking.

It wont handle ultra @ 4x AA, but it will easily cope with ultra + 2xAA or FXAA.

Up to 1200p that is.

They will be fine if you lower AA to 2x and disable vsync.

You may have to put up with some tearing, but it's better than input lag.

Antony101 · 27 Apr 2012 at 17:40

I force vsync off anyway, I'll also be at 1080p.

All Nvidia cards support adaptive Vsync, so there no need to turn it off, just use Adaptive V sync.

Will 750W be okay for SLI? I imagine so as the HALE82 750w is on the supported list. HALE90 is silver cert I think where the 82 is bronze.

750w will be fine, unless your 560's will be watercooled and clocked off the face of the earth lol. Serious though, 750w will be good.

May have just accidentally a whole GPU, damn you guys!

Antony101 · 8 May 2012 at 11:12

Well, finally.

Skyrim runs at around 110fps on Ultra with a fair few mods and HD texture packs. Pretty happy, gets a little loud but shouln't be to much trouble with the sound from BF3.

Really need to get a Sabertooth Motherboard.

Nice cards, but really should have gotten 7850s instead now.

GTX 560 tis are already showing their age in BF3 and Shogun 2.

Antony101 · 8 May 2012 at 11:21

BF3 I got 40fps on ultra with a single card, and total war games have always ran like ****. No point buying 2 7850s when I already had a 560TI. The 7850 is also around £40/50 more than a 560TI, so I'd end up spending around £400 on two and may as well just get a 680 then.

But OP already have an existing GTX560TI...it would be ridiculous to sell his card and swap a pair of 7850 in Crossfire, consider the cost would be at a complete different level after factoring in the loss of selling his GTX560Ti.

passey89 · 8 May 2012 at 12:12

sli'd 560's should be good in bf3 you should get around 60fps on ultra easily

bhavv · 8 May 2012 at 12:19

Oh sorry, I had forgotten the thread details by now, I thought he bought two new ones.

Antony101 · 8 May 2012 at 12:19

Ahhh, If I was buying new I'd wait for the 660s to arrive.
