GTX460 SLi overclocked, mated and put in context

First up, does anyone use SLi ?

Globally, a tiny fraction of a percentage of PC users have more than one graphics card.

The last time Steam’s all-seeing survey tracked SLi/CrossFire usage, it was around 3%.

Given that the Steam Survey only goes to hardcore gamers, you can see just how pitiful that figure is.

These days, it seems that Steam has now stopped bothering to track multi-GPU usage at all because it is so consistently low (while the weaker, but far more popular, Apple now takes up a sizeable chunk of Steam's analysis).

Steam is a graphics marketing man's wet dream. Pure, unadulterated data.

The continued level of global investment is staggering, so what's behind it?

  1. SLi seems to scale well indeed and I see no need for SLix3 either.

  2. Yeah SLI x3 or higher was always an epenis thing, the drivers never really scaled well in the past either. SLIx2 seems the way to go.

  3. Cant see anyone ever needing SLI for these, unless they move to a 30 inch screen.

  4. Well it seems scaling is good, look forward to seeing a full SLI review on the site soon.

  5. SCaling is normally good with SLI and these cards, glad to see it seems to be solid performer in dual card mode. more tests coming?

  7. @flo – I use a 55 inch screen so yum yum to SLI for these for me!
