[citation][nom]echondo[/nom]Not bad for about $1,800, but for dual GPU configurations everyone with at least a bit of knowledge knows that SLI and Crossfire can cause microstuttering and most games do not support SLI/Crossfire setups.I'd rather get a single GTX 680(which they offer) but how does going from 2xGTX 670ms to a single GTX 680m signify a $250+ increase? Shouldn't it go down a bit?Seems kinda of a rip off at this price.[/citation]
its because of the price of the 680m. compare it to the 7970, whichis only slightly slower than it, and its like 240$ less. the 680m atm is definitely not worth its price because of the gap.
[citation][nom]hasten[/nom]Most games don't support CFX/SLI? Tell that to my GTX 660s, GTX 460s, or GTX 260s I've had in SLI at one point or another. Most games that don't support are either old or indie, neither of which I have run into a scenario where one of the cards wouldn't suffice. And when using just one card you can turn on SLI AA and crank up AA to very high settings. As long as you can push enough frames, micro-stutter isn't an issue. I assume a i7 and dual 670m's at 1920x1080 aren't going to struggle too much.[/citation]
Microstuttering isn't caused by not pushing enough frames, its caused by the timing to display the frames. even behemoths like dual 7970's or dual 680s can be affected by microstuttering. the case can be found in some setups. it isn't found in everyone's sli/crossfire, but it still exists nonetheless. some people are also more sensitive to smaller increments of fps change than others.
