Muahahaha

2 EVGA GTX 670's are on the way to my house!! RAWR, im ready to box!!

You'll only need one of them for BETA

SLI/Crossfire not supported in ARR pre-launch.

But grats anyways~

Cool. I should have my new system together and running by beta. I can't wait.

Using Nvidia Inspector you can you can go through hundreds of SLI settings hoping to figure out which ones work best. If you really want to get it working in beta.

Ow, my wallet aches just pricing that. Congrats!

grats! I just upgrade my core2quad to i7 for ARR :)

I currently have 2 superclocked 560ti's that i'll be putting up for sale soon. The reason for the 670's is I want to box once ARR goes live. Only question is can you run two instances of FF on one pc? Anyone know?

Nice, i'm running a single GTX680.

Anyone that would know is under NDA, so they can't tell you anyhow.

You know I thought about this, would the performance increase be worth it to uprade to a single 680 from sli 560's?

I also run a dual monitor setup

I wouldn't know honestly. I don't have much experience with SLI and all that. The GTX680 is a machine though.

SLI is awful awful awful technology, and generally more trouble then its worth. But hope it works out for you! Just got myself a GTX 660 recently to help out while I stream gameplay ^^

I have personal bias against SLI/CrossfireX. I'm going to keep it to myself. I only think it is worth it with 3 monitor setups since a single GPU isn't powerful enough to get a good frame rate.

I wish I had money to upgrade my rig... I don't think I need to upgrade, but I wish I could.

Great! Me too, I just upgraded my iMac with

Enhanced my computer specs by 70%, now I can rock the world! Did you get it? Can, rock,... scrap it, just.. scrap it.

You don't need the upgrade if it is just about performance.

However, keep in mind ARR cannot yet take advantage of SLI. A single 680 will perform better for ARR for now.

I will be supported.

It is just unsupported for beta. It's up to NVIDIA and AMD to update the profiles which usually happens around the release of a major game. All SE can do is work with NVIDIA and AMD to get profiles updated sooner.

I don't think it's right to upgrade your PC for beta. You should upgrade it for release, which means two GTX 670s are fine. It's wise to actually wait till at least the benchmark is released.

Is this a tech forum now? Really hope we don't start seeing threads like this..
If you must know. You are better off getting a single 670 if you do not intend to go over a resolution of 1920x1080.
A 680 really shines at higher res.
A 670 will perform just as well at 1920x1080 or lower.
Save you a hundred bucks as well..
I have a 680 and build computers. I know my stuff.

Didn't start that way, it just developed into what it is...

However, nobody is making you read or reply. I do appreciate the advice though :)

Definetly not doing it for beta, doing it for when it goes live.

Or running 3d? I have a 580 right now and it runs FFXIV in 3d ok... gets a bit laggy at times but damn it looks nice.

Ya, I hope it still looks nice in ARR hope they don't mess up any depth stuff with the UI changes, because everything drew at the right depth in 1.0 and it was so nice. (At least as far as I experienced) Nothing irritates me more than a game looking awesome in 3d but having UI things such as names or water effects drawing wrong in 3d. :(

wish there was a way to PM you.

Assuming you need a 3D capable monitor and glasses?

Since you have NVIDIA cards you must use NVIDIA 3D Vision glasses and a monitor that supports 3D Vision such as Asus 120 hz monitors for optimal performance.

People with AMD cards would use Samsung 120 hz monitor for optimal performance.

This is if you want 60 FPS per eye full resolution.

Since you use NVIDIA cards go here for details: http://www.nvidia.com/object/3d-vision-main.html

ya, or tv that is 3d capable, pretty sure nvidia has it so you can roll it on tv as well.

(Aye, wish they had a PM feature on these forums, if they do I don't know about it.)

I would giggle a little bit if you cannot run 2 clients at the same time..

I am personally just praying for a dual monitor add-on (as was suggested in a thread the other day).

Considering that the addons we get will likely be far more limited than WoW, and what needs to be done to do that, not likely to happen.

Would be awesome if it was possible

Setting all my hopes into my old graphics card (MSI Twin Frozr II R5770 Hawk). I'm pretty confident about this though ;) Waiting for the release to update my graphics card. I'll probably grab a ZOTAC GeForce GTX 660 Ti AMP! Edition.

right now im torn between a 680 FTW + 3D Monitor or 2x 670 FTW's or 2x 680's (this last option will fade once the price actually hits me lol)

For me 3D is cool to see once and awhile. However, I don't like wearing glasses and it's hard on my eyes to wear them a long time. I use my 3D monitor to run games at 120 hz with vsync off, smoothest game play you can get.

That's what kills me about 3D.
Glasses are uncomfortable for extended periods and the only periods I play for, are extended ones..lol.
It looks really cool though. I see it on my brothers system.
Should check out the hubble space telescope 3D footage recently released..
Pretty amazing.

Well I really don't need to upgrade, but my next upgrade will be this summer. I am planning on getting an:
Intel Haswell i9 Quad-Core GPU-GT3 with
memory: 16GB (4x4GB) Samsung* Dual Channel DDR3-1600 or better
storage: solid state HD 6Gbs or better
video card: GeForce GTX 780

All of this 20nm Gen 2 hardware is supposed to be available by July 2013. The GTX 780 was supposed to be released in Feb but apparently is delayed by manufacturing problems. The CPU was schedueled for June 2013 but we'll see. This machine should be ready for the new SE graphics Luminous engine. I doubt Luminous can run at internet speeds so it will probably be single player..

I'm pretty sure there won't be any i9 branding in the upcoming Haswell processors.
