I have played a little and run a lot of the blackdeath track to fiddle with different SLI profiles. The bottom line is that SLI is still broken but the game does run really smoothly with a single GTX580 and maxed out settings now.

I also got SLI to run butter smooth by forcing split screen rendering instead of alternate frame rendering but AVG frame rate was only 35 FPS with a max of 70 FPS, Minimum 17 FPS was higher than normal though. All 4 GPUs were running flat out pegged at 99% the whole time with SFR.

PS I love what they've done with the lastest Beta Patch for the new look and the smoother performance!

Ok almost done.
Just have 1 more GPU cable to do as more black 16awg wire only arrived yesterday.
A couple more cables to sleeve including the front panel controls and a couple 12v runs for the power board in the middle.
Mount the SSD cradle and sleeve.
And re-crimp all the sensors.
Fit blocks and tubing.
Im expecting the blocks to arrive late next week.

Here's the beast almost complete, everything fits as planned with minimal cables visible!!!

Your buildup looks much cleaner now.

But what I don't understand is, why you used quick-connect couplings on the radiators and also on the board.
The risk of leaked water by connecting and disconnecting them on the board is in my eyes a little bit to high.

I keep watching.:grin:

Great Rig.

Now you don't need to heat your room in winter anymore. :cool:

By the way, whats your average framerate in CloD?

Fjordmonkey 10-15-2011 06:36 PM

DUDE! That's not a rig, that's a damn MONSTER. Sweet Jebus, my system just hid itself in the darkest corner of my officer to sulk..
