From now on, I plan to buy two graphics cards for SLI, rather than picking a dual GPU device. I've heard scaling is better and I know Dual SLI is more efficient than either Tri or Quad SLI (why I never bought a second 690, for instance).
|
Indeed scaling beyond 2 GPU's has diminishing returns, however if you're sensitive to microstutter it does help greatly.
|
So, Tri-SLI, for example, would rid microstutter? Because yes, it's annoying :P
|
What exactly is microstutter?
|
It's similar to framerate drops, except that it's a constant "stutter" of motion than can be observed when moving in-game.
|
So, dual gpu's can cause microstutter or could it happen on just one gpu too?
|
If it happens with a single card (not a dual GPU single card), you are having a bottleneck of some sort.
Microstutter in multi GPU solutions is due to bad handling of distributing workload between the cards.
