If the video outputing card is called “Master Card” shouldn’t the second one be called Visa?
Only when there wasn't a profile for a game because MC and Visa don't work together.
American Express next?
American Express would be more accurate since you need to be pretty well off to afford the second card.
ha
English sli will be called Santander then
SLI Optimized games: "Orange box, the"
Interesting...
I love these videos about old tech! Looking and moving forward is always important in tech, but celebrating the older, simpler and obsolete is the best way (in my opinion) the best way to celebrate progress itself.
Side-door-mounted fans FTW, so much nostalgia !!
I have one... On my ANTEC ONE HUNDRED...
I got one on my fx4300 pc
Is this nlt a thing anymore ? I left gaming 10 years ago and my case had still a side fan lol
E G not really mate as the cases stopped coming with side mounts (mid to high range cases that is)
@@Gave-rf1hr any reasons for leaving, or did u just get bored
"Pretty freakin cool... when it worked"
My exact sentiment after having 3x 290X for a couple years. I went to single 1080ti and doubt I'll ever do multicard again.
Same here. My first and only time with SLI was 2xGTX Titan SLI, the very first generation of Titans, Kepler core with 2688SP and 6GB 384-bit VRAM. I had an 2560x1600 monitor (DELL U3011) at the time, and that was one of very few options I had to run it comfortably (normal GTX780 only had 3GB VRAM, and 780Ti, which afaik had 6GB variations, were not released yet - they saw the light roughly the same time as Titan Black with full uncut 2880SP, which also made me rage so hard... well, that's a topic for another long story), and boy did I have my share of troubles. Starting from accidental BSODs in a couple games like Metro 2033, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter and some more, to just plain absence of SLI profiles for some somewhat demanding games and loads of other random issues (didn't see any of that frame stuttering, though). This went on until I upgraded to an EVGA GTX1080, which run almost as good, if not better, but everywhere and without troubles.
Then I had to change my monitor to 3840x2160 BenQ SW271 cuz my good old Dell kicked the bucket, and had to opt for ASUS Strix RTX 2080Ti due to lack of GPU performance, which I sold three weeks ago for $800, and now I am struggling with that good old 1080, waiting for uncut GA104 3070Ti/Super with full 3072(6144fp32) shader units.
I remember having three GTS250oc cards in triple SLI. Lol
Then I had a GTX480 that caused global warming all by itself. Lmao
Then I had a GTX750Ti.
Now I have a GTX1080Ti, my first graphics card that was actually good at producing graphics. :D
Salty Steel lol, my GTX 580 would warm the room and I only had one, that is still the hottest card I have owned including sli setups.
u can save some gas and fry eggs/steak every time u play with the 480.
1080ti First time you got more than 60fps and then you shit your pants out of excitement I bet
my 1070 heats my room
the gtx295 is more than stupid temperature wise
Can it run....oh wait, he already answered!
Oof
Reconfigure B B But mom
Curse you for posting this before me
I was typing it out as he answered it.
Can it run away?
It'd be pretty awesome to see y'all do this for the evolution of PhysX too. I remember back when the concept of a dedicated physics card became a Major Thing, and some of the screenshots magazines were pushing showing the difference in graphics settings you could have in a game just by shunting the physics processing over onto its own dedicated card, and it'd be nice to see if those first-gen or even second-gen dedicated-physics boosters really were all that and a bag of chips.
That 2:03 "Pretty cool!" WordArt Font from Microsoft Word 2000 reminds me of me doing my school homework back in the days and struggeling with the decision of which of those WordArt presets and ClipArt images would be the sickest to make my ugly homework look lit af :D
Cornelius Diefenthal I had a teacher who would half anyone’s marks if they used word art or clipart.
That's some heckin' relatable words you just did
WordArt was cool until people discovered FlamingText
The good old days~~
The simpler days.
4:52. Wait, this isn't JayzTwoCents
How about AMD/ATi first Crossfire for next?
He wants it to work.
@@dhomini7140 my dfi LanParty RDX200 (first board with ati chipset) worked like a charm, if 3dMark06 was the only game you were playing.
I'm working on an SLI vid me self, DUAL 8800 ULTRASSSSS - just got it together today, I think Linus is stealing my ideas :)
Good video, I didn't know what OEM meant, now I know :-P
I remember my first SLI rig. It was not cheap, but considering doing an SLI rig now is just insane!
The best card of all time is the 8800 GTX Ultra.
Yes! I remember this 10 or more yeara ago
8800gt. Couldn't be beat for the money.
That case is fabulously tacky.
lol I have the same case
what is the name of the case? did that ak47 window come standard?
SaintedPlacebo no that's not standard, he's got a modded case. And idk the name of the case, i bought a custom built pc, and it came with that case.
2004 was a hell of a time
That looks like a DFI Lanparty UT nF4 board, which was my first motherboard! One thing about it that I liked was the jumpers to switch into SLI mode, where a lot of other motherboards of that time had daughterboards that had to be turned around to put the motherboard into SLI mode. I even had that case, repainted in red, with a large side window and several added fan holes. It's like looking at a blast from the past.
Your channel helped me to build my first computer! THX!
Same
I'm sure I did too without realizing it. Watched like 10 different how to guides when I did it 2 years ago just to make sure. I'm sure an LTT video was one.
Same xd I used so much time watching tutorials on youtube beforehand that I didn't need any help while building the system.
I watched techsource vids to build mine
That's really cool! Well done on taking the risk
That case screams “yeah, I play Counter Strike 1.6”
RIP Tunnelbear :(
Why? is Tunnelbear dead?
Worse. Acquired by McAfee.
animaegray whaaaaat
F
Holy fuck noooooo
One of my favorite vids as of late. Really interesting stuff, thank you Linus and team
that scrolling list of games made me uncomfortable
Glad it's not just me. "SLOW THAT SCROLL you're giving me a headache!"
I remember the days of running my x2 9800 card. It was SLI that was on a single card. Still had all the pains of getting SLI to run on whatever game you wanted, but man when it worked, IT WORKED. Many LAN parties were saved by the utilization of that cards power. Thanks for a nostalgia trip back to my younger years!
When I see that handle on the case side panel I immediately know it's Antec.
Chieftec used the same handle, well they were pretty much the same case, probably built in the same factory.
3:06 OMG that "LanParty" SLI connector is a thing of beauty.
The good old DFI LanParty boards, how I miss them... I had a RDX200 with two Ati X1800´s in Crossfire.
Anyone else was on dfi-street forums these days?
Wasn't crossfire before 1950XTX notoriously bad?
@@Tc4ify dual gpu setups always have been a pita. No matter if nvdia or ati, only a few games really profited from the additional rendering power. For an X1800 or X1900 Crossfire setup you even needed a special "mastercard".
For benchmarking 3dMark06 it was heaven though ;)
I remember overclocking the crap out of my X1800s to run the built in F.E.A.R. benchmark till it artifacted all over the place. Those were the times... No power limits, no clock limits, you could literally fry the card(s).
Hah! I had that motherboard. The DFI Lanparty UT Expert SLI ! Amazing motherboard. I could overclock my Opteron 165 to 3ghz on air with that thing! Back in 2005!
SLI is a gimmick nowadays. Unless you're playing crazy res and don't mind having more problems than you know what to do with, stick with single GPU. The fact you couldn't use the VRAM on the 2nd card just makes it kinda stupid as well IMO
TDS Loved my DFI Motherboard!
"The fact you couldn't use the VRAM on the 2nd card just makes it kinda stupid as well IMO"
It's not as stupid as it's just a result of how the technology works, since both cards are rendering same scene, it's clearly essential for both of them to have loaded same textures as it is impossible for the GPU of first card to access the textures on the other card with proper speed. Even if you can do it through SLI link, it would be just a shred of a bandwidth you have directly between GPU and memory.
I had it too!
Actually, I picked up 2 DFI Lanparty UT nF4 Ultra-D motherboards a few months ago because they were cheap ($35 cad for both). Both came with Opteron 165. They both work, but one has an issue with the first pcie slot. lol
Was it toaster certified?
There was a "3GHz club" back in the day on the dfi-street forums.
Linus: I will be giving away computers.
5,4mil people: hahahahah a good one
5.4 mil computers
Dont lose hope
I still own PCI-Express version of GeForce 6800 Ultra with the famous mermaid together with a briefcase box and everything it came from the factory. I remember how crazy it was to have a two-slot graphics cars at the time. Before that the only card like that was a GeForce FX 5950 Ultra, but it was an AGP card. When the GeForce 6 series came out all the models were available for AGP slot for compatibility or PCI-E slot for new builds. Barely anybody upgrading at the time stuck with AGP, everybody knew that PCI-E was here to stay and people changed graphic cards together with motherboards. From 2001-2007 were the crazy times when so many new technologies were coming up that your computer was outdated in half a year since you bought it. From generation to generation of graphics cards and processors the performance literally doubled.
Is that a (Diamond Flower Inc) DFI LanParty motherboard? OmG 😢 the memories
I just got a dfi lan party motherboard too😂
"I loved those stickers very long ago..." 🗨🤩💾
It's about time!
RandomFlatShowsvideos it's about money
But can it run cr*** oh... hi actually tried it!
Ahhhh yas the good days. I remember when my 9800GT was the golden child:)
At any point in time I'm a few shots of vodka away from going on ebay and building my own tri-sli 9800 gtx+ rig.
So much envy.
@@theclinger I have a 9800 gtx+ in my old Win XP machine and I can't count how many times I've been shocked at how well it performed.
Linus should get a foot pedal! I got super distracted every time I noticed him moving the script forward.
(Awesome vid still)
Yeah, seriously it looks like he's trying to pull up his pants or some shit.
that bothered me for years, now i barely notice it.
I loved crossfire. My first build was $1000 AUD for the box and $1380 for the monitor and shipping. 6 months later I got another ATI HD4850 for $150 off eBay and doubled my frame rate in COD4. Also two matching graphics cards looks super badass. Did the same thing later, with a 7870 and it sucks that I can't right now with a GTX 980. I had top, bottom and side fans and the bottom card would be 70 degrees, the top would be 82.
Little recommendation : put the audio transmitter in your backpocket. It looks like you keep checking your phone every 10 seconds. Drives me mad bingewatching your vids! :-)
It's actually the remote for the teleprompter.
...And yes, it drives me nuts too.
I stand corrected! @Linus: You're a f*** millionaire! Get a slave-drone to do that job for you!! Are we allowed to say slave again..? Just wondering. This is not triggering SJW, this is a work-around for something driving me nuts!
He wants to stay one, too. Sometimes by being cheap where its easy.
Remember, these days a Fortune 500 company stays a Fortune 500 company by not spending any money.
So why not do the same? ;)
Just get a pedal for this. Looks like they are stuck with this button in Linus' crotch area.. Very annoying
i thought i was the only one distracted by this
My first dedicated card was a Canopus 3DFX card back in 1997-98? I remember getting it to work in DOS and the spinning 3DFX logo was a sign of success :D. Oh the feels
Hey linus, could you make a video on explaining console dev kits?
SGUB CLUB yeah I'd like that too.
This above^
yeah...that would be really helpful!
Nice video! I loved the history and performance of old tech! It all sucks now, but without it we wouldn't be where we're at today.
Is Linus reaching for his phone (in his right jeans pocket) or just scratching himself every few frames??!! (maybe he has a attached button for his teleprompter there?!!) - its hard to ignore once you start noticing it!!!
Sikandar Khan at what time in the video?
Look closely mate, he does it throughout the video - watch his right hand...
He does it in every single 'to camera' video. It is very f**king annoying. I think it is the sound recorder device he has touch every few seconds. Wish he would stop!
I think (and this is a theory) that it's the autocue, and he is flipping a screen to the next part of the script. Why it's not adapted to be done by pressing a button with his foot is beyond me though.
It’s to advance the TelePrompTer screen
This is the most interesting video LTT has produced in ages. Now do one for present-day SLI.
Hi random person scrolling down...I just wanted to tell you : I hope you will get the gpu you wanted :)
IKH TV I don't want one so achieved.
got 1080ti sli; im happy
am7ha7 DAAMN ..lucky you ....and im here just dreaming about a single 1080ti
My first SLI system had a pair of Leadtek 7600 GT cards. I had them running on an A-Bit KN8 SLI mobo. For those that can recall, AMD was first to release NF4 chipset boards that supported SLI. It was pretty badass.
Looks like something the Borg from Star Trek made.
XFX 6800GT XXX Alpha Dog's were my first NVIDIA SLI setup. Running on a Q9550 with XFX 790i Ultra SLI motherboard.
My very first SLI setup was a Pentium 2 450Mhz on Asus P2B with a 3Dfx Voodoo Banshee & 2 x 3Dfx Voodoo 2 3D acclerators in SLI.
It was amazing technology at the time, but im glad we've reached a point where we have massive cards that can do the job.
The title support was extremely hit or miss.
not in my sub box lol, but I got that notification
Thats what its for, because CZcams is incompetent!
I agree
Nice! My first gaming computer had an Athlon 3800+ and two 6600 GTs in SLI. I can't believe how old that tech looks now.
You're young, mine was a AMD K6-2 cpu and nVidia Riva TNT2 video card.
We used to call them “video cards”. I still remember how glorious it was going from software graphics to OpenGL for the first time back in the late 90s.
I had a P532SLI with a pair of 7800 GT's and I loved it. Half Life 2, Doom 3, Fear it did every game I played with zero issues if there was an SLI profile which was fine as Nvidia was releasing drivers every 2 weeks or so (unlike ATI's every 18 month schedule) so you were covered. The ptice difference between a GT and a GTX especially on launch day was large and for a little more money I got a lot more frames per second. When the board caught fire I replaced it with a P6N Diamond and it worked even better. But yes a driver update with new SLI profile were key.
ATI X1900XTX CrossfireX video incoming? I sure hope so.
A comparison between x8/x8 and x16/x16 pcie crossfire. The comparison I´m still waiting for today.
I still have both the Voodoo 2 and the first GeForce. As much as I liked the Voodoo, the GeForce was a game changer. We went from 4 MD EDO RAM to 32 (?) MB DDR memory within such a short time. Also the new AGP bus and the superior GPU. The Voodoo came at a time when CPUs had around 100 to 300 MHz. A couple of years later CPU frequency had doubled and 1 GHz was just around the corner. So much stuff happened in just a couple of years in the PC market. First CD-ROM was introduced and then CD-R / RW. Also USB came around. First only to get rid of your old parallel and serial ports used for printers and modem. But it was like switching from horseback riding to driving cars. From the beginning of the 90s to the end of the 90s the PC had fundamentally evolved. Heck, even Windows changed from 9x to a NT/2000 based system for the home user. And that was the time when for most people the PC was the only device for home compute. No smartphone, no tablet, etc.
Wait are those Ben-10 graphics cards?
Lazy Only the best for Linus. XFX ones too!
ThyBonesConsumed they still do... Just that now is not that cringie
I actually prerfer SLI. This is my first SLI build, and I haven't looked back. I'm running two 1080TIs (bought used on craigslist, each for around 500). My graphics score in Firestrike is 50k...The setup decimates a single RTX 2080TI and RTX Titan by a long shot, for hundreds less.
Umm Déjà vu?!?!?
I remember back in the day when 120mm fans costed an arm and a leg. So when we got cases that had let's say 3 80mm fans installed we would go to a c&c shop and have them cut 2-3 120mm fan holes so we could get better cooling.
85 degrees heat seems normal for a graphic card thats running a game at its best ? i think ?
It's funny you mention the lower/upper split. The first rig I ever build had 2 SLI 8600GTs and I vividly remember showing my friends an odd line horizontally across the screen when gaming - it didn't particularly stand out, but if you looked for it, it was noticeable. My frame rates were good and everything was smooth, but once I noticed it... It was sometimes hard to ignore....
Anyone else experience/remember this? lol
STB didn't have quality? All the Voodoo cards made after the buyout were built so well only the best companies like Matrox or Diamond could compete quality-wise
munxcorp says who?
the dumb ass making the video said they didn't have quality. But anyone who was living during that time and followed the 3dfx voodoo line knows they where the best graphics card to buy period. Nvidia sucked ass.
Well, that’s a bit of a lie, the TNT 2 ultra was a brilliant card, and wasn’t limited to 1024x768 and worked with all games unlike the Voodoo cards, and there is no denying that the first Geforce kicked everyone’s ass!
munxcorp,

Voodoo 5 cards, nVidia needed to produce them by law, releasing them 2 years to late, promoting their own 5th generation favoring the less good OpenGL card. T&l hardware acceleration gen cards moved the market overnight, killing all Open GL developing.
In those days an sli certified gaming machine doubled as a space heater on those cold winter nights. 😊
LAN quake 2 on my riva tnt2 baby!!!
Elsa Gloria Glint chip did similar function in 97 ish. IT was able to use VooDoo 2 cards via the PCI bus. I had 3 in line each one cut about 15% off my render times, It was not designed for gaming though. They got the GLINT Co patents and design when they bought 3DFX. My Glint card had 4MB of Video Ram, and a 24bit color dac. 3 MB of the memory was reserved for 3D. While 1 MB and the dac handled 2D graphics. You didn't need much 2D memory as the color palette takes a majority of the memory.
Time for an AMD history lesson. Also, a comparison between CrossfireX and SLI
Roosevelt Jones And let's not forget the original CrossFire.
SLI was better than CFX. Nowadays they are both crap.
My first decent GFX card generation! 2 6600GT's in SLI. The scaling we found (CS:S Zombie Horde mod crew) was yeah dependent on the games but with playing mostly Counter Strike: Source it hammered! Kids these days who weren't around then and compare it to today's SLI will see all these flaws but don't recognize it was for the time a bad ass and brilliant experience when it wasn't finicky. Which in my experience was the vast majority of the time. And yes it played Crysis xD
Do crossfire!
Yes!
please
Forget Crossfire. Let's see dual Rage Fury MAXX cards...
how time flies. I couldn't believe that it has passed almost 15 years.
*UNREAL* Aw heck yeaaaa
YO. You've got awesome art stuff.
don mind me
Thank you
i was playing unreal gold eariler today
My build in 2005:
Opteron 165
DFI LanParty nforce4
Geforce FX 5900
This video gave me flashbacks of trying that SLI mod with a mechanical pencil lmao
Should have used a good old Hb wooden pencil
I had a voodoo 5 card and it was amazing
I've ran SLI in every system I've ever built since it's introduction. It's never been better!!
This is good for bitcoin.
dude
An unpopular Justin y comment
I watch a lot of CZcams videos, and you sir by far have one of the best intros to each video. Had to pause the video to comment that, lol.
Ah the good ole days of Doom 3, UT2004, FEAR, and Crysis!
TheHvk
nVidia, Linus is promoting them, changing history!
Why you noobs need this Linus bullshit talk? Need promoted items?
9700 pro
aaaaand Half Life 2!
halo?
I think these good old days were a little earlier. Voodoo 2 is still the 90's. Long before those games yet Voodoo 2 SLI can run Potato Doom 3!
i used sli for 10 years on my x58 starting with 9800gt's then upgrading throughout the years i still have the rig today running the original single gtx275 i started with before go sli
Damn... BFG... My first Nvidia card was a BFG 7800 GT when I was 15. I remember standing in CompUSA in the early 00's looking at all the expensive AGP x4/x8 GPU's and saving up holiday/chore money to buy one after like a year ;_;
Brandon A. Like 3dfx, bfg made stupid business decisions and killed themselves
the BFG warranty I will never forget! Such a great brand. A lot of my BFG stuff still works. I still have my BFG 6800GT.@@charleswp71
I had that same DFI mobo, overclocked Opteron 144 (1.8ghz stock to 2.6ghz oc) and a pair of 6800GT cards! Also, the board's chipset fan shown in the video isn't the original one, and I know this because I had to replace my original chipset fan with a very similar one to that. They all wore out or got noisy eventually. I also had to take a saw to my old case to increase the airflow. The case was originally beige, but I painted the insides electric blue and the outside black. I ran a scsi card and acquired some 10k rpm ex-server drives as SSDs didn't exist yet and 7200rpm drives were even slower than they are today when their capacities were just a few hundred Gb. Some people used Western Digital Raptors around the same time which was a similar setup for Sata. I remember when a bunch of us started installing SSDs for the first time... 30gb boot drives :D AMD were making Intel look silly for a few years as Intels P4 chips were ridiculously hot and drew a lot of power. A year or two later I went to a dual core cpu in the same socket, but it just couldn't quite handle Battlefield Bad Company 2 sometime after that. The system ran for many more years as a home server.
Oh, and it put me off SLI for life. When I upgraded to a single card 8800GTS it was so much smoother and it just worked properly all the time, even with brand new games or demos.
At 8:42, just replace "second card" with "RTX" and it all makes sense lol.
Oof
I remember paying two thirds of my weekly check as a electrician for a flag ship back in the day. I remember two or more people coming by for drivers to be loaded when I powered it up for the first time and we all competed for better systems but cheered each others purchasing of new technologies. We would also cover for each other the the wifes would go nuts about a courageous buy. Man I miss the good old days.
I skipped ahead to see if the editing/glitch error made it into the video
Sorry to disappoint...
It didn't
If you don't know what I'm talking about go watch Taran's video
My dad built a Athlon 64 x2 system on a Gigabyte nForce4 board with SLI GeForce 2600GS. Gaming in '05 on that was a treat.

This video brought back great memories. An old build of mine included that exact motherboard, FX-55 & a 7900GTX.
Dude, I have that case but in grey.... Solid grey... Noice
It was the OLD Alienware case, I had the same color with door version.
Just made me realize I'm old :(
There were a lot of generic cases that looked like that if I remember.
At the time there were a lot of boutique system builders using a modified version of that case or its siblings. The original is from the Antec Performance Plus series, this model being the PLUS660 AMG. I still have the big brother version, the PLUS1080 AMG. They were fantastic cases when they came out (2002), I got my 1080AMG in 2003, and I still use it for one of my computers.
CSJ I had a Antec just like that but it had a door covering the drive bays, loved that case
Same but mine is black, like the one in the video.
Damn.. I could've hooked you guys up with a decent FX-57.
We just couldn't ever get rid of that rig; it earned a spot on the wall.
I wanted to command will it run crysis :(
God damnit. Someone pointed out his hand going into his pocket every few seconds and now I can’t unsee it. Lol.
Jorge Diaz i think its to change the script on an off camera monitor
Ghost Yahiro oh yeah I know but I never noticed it before and now that someone pointed it out I can’t not notice. lol
Linus digressed. He's turning into Jay.
50cent Linus, Hip Hop skills, the racing, Nissan Z driver too? Jay's Garage? Leno?

atleast not as much as michael vsauce
More tech-history/early 2000s nostalgia vids plox!
they made SLI to play pacman
I remember building a theoretical rig using GT8800s with SLI. Such a throwback. Cool
ATI first Crossfire then next PLZ!!!!!!!
lol, I remember running x850xt crossfire, was a fun time to be into computers!
I remember have the similiar mainboard (DFI LanParty NF4 SLI) with Athlon 64 4000+ and 6800GT,
playing DOOM, Half Life, CS, etc with this awesome RIG.
After 5 years using it, give it to my daughter and 2 years later broken one by one.
A sweet memories with old tech ;-p
I have a feeling that i've seen this video before...
Am I going insane?
stop.
Damn that nostalgia, this was exactly my first gaming desktop (except I had the 6800 Ultra cards). That thing could warm up a room.
But can it run Crysis 2 200x155 pixels ultra settings?
I remember discussing in school how the rich kids wasted their money on 2 graphics cards just to play newer games, instead of waiting a few years.
Awesome video, love the inside of that case.
But can it run Crysis 2?
Idea was really cool, slap a second card in it and boost up your performance. (If possible / supported ) 😆
