So there has been this saying for a long time, you can never get enough. Well to us this means plain and simple, that you can never have enough computing power and that you will always be looking at new technology and new ways to accomplish the same tasks, but much faster and extremely more efficiently. We can remember ten years ago when we were building systems, the main concern was your CPU and your graphics card. Everything centered on getting the single best card you can and marry it with a great processor. Well, like the saying goes you can never get enough, and along came SLI and CrossFire to enable us to get even more by running two graphics cards at the same time. - HiTechLegion EVGA GeForce GTX 275 SuperClocked 3-Way Review
Well several years have passed and the saying creeps back in, and now what has become just old news in dual SLI has been reborn with the hunger for more graphics power. Enter now, the mighty triple SLI config. Three already powerful graphics accelerators by their own right, coupled together in a 3-way party that explodes into a fury of incredible graphical eye candy. Now the EVGA e-GeForce GTX 275 SuperClocked edition comes packaged in a black box with the large EVGA logo across the front and a bright yellow fading into orange stripe across the upper portion. On the back, there is an abundance of features displayed. The EVGA e-GeForce GTX 275 SuperClocked edition is priced at $259, placing it in the main stream gaming class. If you factor in the cost of two or three of these cards for SLI operation, you would be looking at $520 for dual SLI and $780 for a 3-way SLI system, pushing the price more into the enthusiast level price range. The performance of the card in single configuration performed well, especially for its price point and only its slight boost in clock and memory speeds. Once the cards are placed into dual and triple SLI mode, the performance screams for the price and is easily suitable for any rig looking for an intense gaming experience. For several years now we have bounced between video boards trying to find the right balance between performance and price. Well, finally we have found it with this EVGA e-GeForce GTX 275 graphics card. The performance is great through the majority of the benchmarks and the excellent performance increases seen with the enabling of SLI with these cards is just what we were looking for. Given the right CPU config, these 3-way SLI option should be freed to outperform about any single card and many even coupled together. And the performance increases throughout various benchmarks and in actual game play, was very noticeable. Anyone looking to build a good gaming system that will feature more than one graphics card, should definitely look into the e-GeForce GTX 275 SuperClocked edition from EVGA because of their price and performance. Running these cards in SLI will allow you to get those frame rates you are looking for and the PhysX rendering that is becoming more common in games, without digging into your wallet until it's completely empty. This graphics card and its performance in SLI has earned our recommendation.
