Yeah, tanks!!!

For the moment I'm enjoying it very much!!!

Altought I was not confident that GTX 590 would be able to run the most requiring games on 3D surround. In this aspect I'm much more glad than I have expected. I was thinking on GTX 580 in SLI, but finally, for some reasons I bought that GTX 590.

I can run Metro 2033 with Directx 11 and graphics detail set to medium. With a resolution of 5900x1080 an 3D activated. I don't know how many FPS it's giving to me, but the game is pretty playable.

Bad Company is pretty playable too at 5900x1080 and 3D Surround, but curiously, it has less FPS than Metro 2033. I wouldn't expect that.


Finally, I can asure than GTX 590 was a good choice (and cheaper than GTX 580 in SLI), so I'm happy for that.


I havn't overclocked the CPU for the moment. But when the situation will present, I'll think to put that 2700K between 4.2 and 4.6 maximun for being safe.





The 3D surround experience at overall is pretty good. But many times I tend to play with 3D off at the end. I don't know why, maybe because of the darkness produced by the glasses, or maybe because 3D is very good for short periods of playing. I think when you have to play a game for 3 hours non stop, It's better playing it with 3D off. Or at least, it's a good idea switching on / off for intervals of time.


See you ;)
