dhgunit Daemon Poster Messages 690 Dec 17, 2008 #4 Love the looks of the GTX 285. More performance, less TDP......higher OC? And finally over the 1 TFLOP with a single GPU. Also.....240 shaders on the GTX 295?? WTF?? I thought it would be 216. I thought that is what the whole problem with a GTX 280 X2 was.

Click to expand... Good $550 to $700... They are usually overpriced at the start, then they drop it some.. but its a good chip for sure... (just bang for the buck is albeit low, and that applies to all dual-GPU cards)

Ste Do not Stare at my Avatar Messages 9,578 Location Upon Gleaning Infinity Dec 17, 2008 #8 Anyone know if the GTX 295 will be dual PCB like the GX2 or will it be one PCB like ATI's X2's?

zmatt The Bulldog Messages 4,660 Location In an empty Ramen packet Dec 17, 2008 #10 Why does the gtx295 have lower mem bandwidth than the 285? Its a dual gpu card. It should have more.
