Recently reported that Asus is the first and so far the only manufacturer to shoot non-market graphics card, built on the basis of three RV670PRO ATI graphics chip. An interesting feature is the design that uses special graphics modules mounted on MXM slots. The whole is cooled by water blocks. So many words of introduction. The most important before us. All will ask themselves the question: What about the performance of such structures? So far, Asus said little about it. Meanwhile, service VR-Zone came into the possession of one of the cards Asus Trinity carried out the tests and compiling them from najmocniejszymi graphics for gamers or GeForce 9800 GX2 and Radeon HD 3870 X2.

It turns out that Trinity is not as fast as if could be spent. Graphics work in CrossFireX mode and is operated by traditional drivers Catalyst. Unfortunately, the practical implementation of performance are similar to the power offered by the Radeon HD 3870 X2. Most likely cause of this state of affairs are as always ATI Catalyst drivers (in this version 8.4). On the other hand, according to VR-Zone, the card very well in tests such as 3DMark, and especially in 3DMark06, in which the test “eats” GeForce’a 9800 GX2 (20246pkt) – 21,730 points for Trinity. What’s interesting example in 3DMark Vantage card had problems with the completion of tests and ultimately was dropped less (8047 points) from a Radeon HD 3870 X2 (9987 points). Behind in the tests. In games is a little less and as a result, Trinity now a bit disappointing. Service tested the card, among others under games: Crisis, World in Conflict, Quake Wars.

Hope for Trinity certainly are new and optimized drivers. Then the card should slightly expand the wings. VR-Zone in the summary says that Trinity is the structure, which was created by Asus mainly in order to show that the company remains a leader in the market and is able to deploy cutting-edge technologies. This goal certainly managed to obtain business. If you want to read the whole text, to find him at this address.
