I still have a 280X (water cooled) and a 7970 (also water cooled). Both worked fine in crossfire.

 

[phill]

Haven't got a 280X ever, but the 280 I had in 2014 (a Gigabyte Windforce X3) worked flawlessly, sold it and got an used GTX 680.

My 7970 Matrix works like a charm and stays cool and quiet

My apologies, but either way, that series was a nightmare. I never had a good one and went back to a 7970 at the time I think... Should have grabbed some 780 TI's I think, they where another great card at the time. The 680's weren't too bad either

I miss crossfire

Meh

I miss SLI

2014 Build - EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Superclocked

Don't ask me if those fans are RGB

 

[lexluthermiester]

Don't you mean R9 280? Basically a rebranded 7970

Yes, sorry.

Had/have both, just miss the fact they are no longer doing it... A 3070/3080/3090 might be nice, but two in a rig is so much nicer

 

[lexluthermiester]

Yeah, rebrands. 280 = 7950 Boost and 280X = 7970.

Ah, ok you have a solid card then.

 

[freeagent]

I was a little disappointed to not see any gold fingers on my card

I can assure you that if SLI was possible with the 3080 series i would have 2 of them.

I know what you mean... It's not like I don't have enough of them already to do SLI with 3070, 3080 and 3090.....
When is overkill not overkill?!

Had a blast with these 2 (Asus Matrix HD7970 & 280X), replaced by the GTX1080Ti.

Yes, sorry.

No problem.

That is a beaut!

Oh nice, I like your keyboard. Could you post a bigger pic of it?

That is a beaut!

Thanks! Performance to power wasn't that stellar though. And when crossfire worked it was a blast, but still a pita with certain games (The witcher 3 never really worked).

Using hardware monitor, have set up an alert for the pump

 

[freeagent]

Ok last one I swear! I just wanted to get another fan in there

I had to take the front panel off and re run the front panel cables. TY-143 and TL-D14X take up a lot of space together because of their 120mm bolt pattern. But that’s it! Im happy with it, and it is done..

Cool, it posted right up. Ryzen 5 5600G

So I have my trifecta starting. I have the ASUS X99 Z10PE-D16 WS, Z10PE-D8 WS & X99-WS/IPMI boards. One of the boards came with CPUs, some RAM and an NVMe drive.

Here's the start in a Rosewill 4U RSV-L4500 with the Z10PE-D8:

Someday I want to paint the interior & rear black. Just something about it bothers me if I don't. So I'll have the two dualies in RSV-L4500's and the X99-WS/IPMI in the middle inside a RSV-L4000. On the left side bays on the L4000 I want to put a lit up sign with the project name or just a smaller USB monitor. It's kind of all inspired by Thinking Machines CM-2/CM-5. So I want to hopefully get some blinkenlights going with IcyDock bays in the front.

Don't ask me if those fans are RGB

Let me guess, Blue Cooler Master Sickleflows?

You got it right

Got one of those lamptron RGB frames for under the motherboard.... I really like it a lot

 

[wolf]

Seeing some mint older rigs with multiple cards made me take a look back in time, heres a couple of more fun builds.

Q6600 @ 3.6ghz, 8GB DDR 1066 (i think...) and SLi GTX260 Core 216 1792mb x2 - I loved this build, also owned a GTX295 but wanted to double the VRAM to allow it to stretch it's legs better.

i7 920, 12gb RAM, 5870 + 5850 in crossfire. Got that Coolermaster V10 was a beast and a pain to install and remove!

 

[oxrufiioxo]

I miss SLI/Crossfire.... Finally gave up on it post Pascal. Something about having 2 high end gpu felt badass. I guess highend gpu don't really require it anymore.

I remember needing dual 680s to hit over 60fps in some games at 1080p/ultra even around it's launch. How times have changed.
