NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 570: Filling In The Gaps
by Ryan Smith on December 7, 2010 9:00 AM ESTSTALKER: Call of Pripyat
The third game in the STALKER series continues to build on GSC Game World’s X-Ray Engine by adding DX11 support, tessellation, and more. This also makes it another one of the highly demanding games in our benchmark suite.
STALKER is another game where the GTX 570 and GTX 480 spend some quality time together in our charts, quickly running in to each other once we’re at 1920 at 2560. Similarly at these resolutions the GTX 570 enjoys a roughly 26% lead over the GTX 470, and even the Radeon 5870 isn’t much of a threat. As expected the SLI and CF configurations do pull ahead, but in the case of the GTX 460 SLI this is only a minor lead at best, while the 6850 CF enjoys its usual 20% lead.

Ryan Smith from his conclusion"As with the GTX 580 we’d pick the simplicity of a single-GPU setup over the potential performance advantages of a multi-GPU setup, but this is as always a personal decision."
Going with dual GPUs (specifically nvidia) has it advantages. You get to experience nvidia 3D surround. Yeah I know the additional costs the additional monitors etc that this entails. If GTX 460 1GB SLI can bring so much to the table, I can only imagine what the GTX 560 1 GB SLI can do when it comes.
I only wish the development on the display side catches up with the development on the GPU side (now that AMD has only jumped on the 3D bandwagon).

The GTX 570 is fast enough to justify its position and the high-end card price premium, but at $100 over the GTX 470 and Radeon HD 5870 you’re paying a lot for that additional 20-25% in performance.

did u mean a performance difference detween 5870 & 5870 is 25% ???

I bought my BFG GTX 570 a few weeks ago and I am thrilled with it.
