wait, do you realize that this is just one card with 2 GPU's? Driver profiles aren't necessary, as a card by itself isn't in SLI mode. :/]]>Jan 9th 2009 7:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 7:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/

Thorough review, and I won't spoil the results, but they're pretty apparent from the first test onwards.]]>Jan 9th 2009 7:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/
the 295 is faster by lunatic margins in some cases, uses less power, runs cooler and actually costs a tiny bit less than 4870x2

The 295 is the new king for at least 2 months now.]]>Jan 9th 2009 7:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTYwOCw5LCxoZW50aHVzaWFzdA==
Also, in their 'highest playable settings' test, the 4870x2 and gtx 295 are playable at the same maximum setting in most games.

Price might be different in the US, but in the UK it's about 412 for the GTX 295 http://www.scan.co.uk/Search.aspx?q=gtx+295
and 364 lowest price for the 4870x2. http://www.scan.co.uk/Search.aspx?q=4870+x2]]>Jan 9th 2009 8:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gtx_285_us.html), which is sort of to be expected since it's a 55nm version of the 280 with slightly higher clocks.]]>Jan 9th 2009 7:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 7:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 7:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 10:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 7:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/

The 295 now leads 5%-10% at lower resolutions while costing 25% more. It craps out (totally dies away) at 2560*1600 with 8xMSAA due to lack of memory (295 has 2* 896MB, ATI has 2*1)]]>Jan 9th 2009 7:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Links?]]>Jan 9th 2009 9:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 9:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/i would buy one if theres a pict of Jessica Alba!]]>Jan 9th 2009 10:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 12:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 11:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 11:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 12:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 1:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 10th 2009 3:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/]]>Jan 9th 2009 2:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 9th 2009 7:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/nvidia-makes-gtx-295-official-now-that-its-on-sale-285-too-for/Jan 11th 2009 3:02PM
