I'd love to post my cars and trucks in here, but after reading every single page, and especially the last 10 or so where the EV creeps come out of the woodwork, I'm gonna refrain. I greatly enjoy Vogons, and I'm not willing to risk a ban by engaging with the EV fanatics.

Do you know the details to set up a SLI rig that will behave well? I have two GTX 580 cards. Cheers, Are you having a specific problem with your setup? Tearing and skips? What are the rest of the specs? Which games? What I mean about your experiences with bad and good SLI setups, I have not yet …

How the tearing and skips? Second, what games you were playing on these 3x SLI? Finally, What GPU cards in this triple SLI? Cheers, Honestly, it was fine. I've had some good sli setups and some bad setups, but I remember this machine being far on the good side. Back then, I would have been using it …

Oh man! This brings back memories of a system I had back in 2011. It used to make the paint on the wall behind it soft when it was at full steam. How the tearing and skips? Second, what games you were playing on these 3x SLI? Finally, What GPU cards in this triple SLI? Cheers, Honestly, it was fine …

Heyyyyy! Low profile 730 GT! I didn't even know they still had those kicking around! Gonna grab one right now. Looks like EVGA is liquidating their DVI only 1030 card ($69.99). That's the Superclocked (SC) model so well over double the performance of the GT 730. My guess is not many people want it …

Some of you guys are acting like you're being forced to use power hungry components. Just because they exist doesn't mean you're being forced to purchase/use them. I'm of the opinion that the more compute power I can have locally, the better. I guess guys like me are in the rapidly shrinking …

Mmmm... crud. I had to buy some crud myself with leftover EVGA bucks since their bucks program is ending in September. What kind of crud did you end up with? Not much. I only had about 75 EVGA bucks left. I had picked up a 3090 FTW3 for my ITX build (the Ti was just a tad too tight for my Lian Li …

I've been a PC enthusiast since the early 90s. The end of extreme Multi-GPU setups is what killed it for me. Of course, I'm still going through the motions... There's just no spark anymore. Instead of striving to have the best, and dreaming of more power, people will actively belittle you if they …

Picked up this crud during EVGA's last sale. The card is a BIG BOY, but it stands up on it's own! No sag at all. I tossed my saggy Asus 3090 in the closet. It drove my OCD crazy having to use a GPU brace. I also grabbed a bunch more GTX Titan Blacks, a couple more GTX 690s, and some Haswell …

My current machine is an r9 5950X with an RTX 3090. It's BORING. I miss the glory days of real enthusiast hardware. I miss 3 and 4 GPU setups. I've been buying up a ton of GTX Titan Blacks and making monster multi-GPU systems designed around Windows 7 and NEVER TO BE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET. I'm …
