EVGA 2Win 460 (dual gpu card)

[HeX]

Absolute bargain on at the EVGA store atm:

http://eu.evga.com/products/moreInfo.asp?pn=02G-P3-1387-KR

Dual GTX460's for around £150 delivered.

That sounds like a lot of folding power for not a lot of money to me!

 

[Biffa]

Heh, I think between 24-30K per card. (12-15k per gpu) depending on WU.

Power consumption is around the same as a GTX590

But good price, probably do better as a Seti cruncher card.

what about the heat? got to be way over 80c?



i was planning new motherboard , psu and extra gpus, seems i could just sell my 2 470s and psu and replace with 1000watt psu and 2 of these?

depending on heat and electric costs, ill buy a new psu tommorow and order 2 of them, time ive sold my old stuff of, the cost isnt to hard on the pocket.

Seems to be about mid 80's under load.

No water blocks for em, rules me out

 

[HeX]

No full cover ones, but I'd imagine you could fit core only ones.

 

[Biffa]

Core only are useless to me unfortunately. But yes I would think they probably will fit.

 

[ozaudio]

whats your new plans biffa? ive seen you hinting your having a change

 

[Biffa]

I'm planning the impossible as usual

 

[ozaudio]

will this mean a side step with gear , just a change around, or changing to even more powerfull stuff to add more ppd

 

[ToxicTBag]

How close to completion is "the impossible" Mr Biffa sah? and how goes the "foot n mouth"?

 

[robj20]

Is this a good buy then? Currently have a gtx 460

 

[ToxicTBag]

Sold out ..... i think they were ramraided by a bunch of crunchers with tax refunds

 

[robj20]

Would you pay customs charges on stuff from EVGA

 

[Biffa]

Not coming from Europe

 

[robj20]

Sweet, tempted to order two of these, match them with a i7 2600k should see around 50k PPD shouldnt it?

 

[Biffa]

Easily depending on WU
