After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

Ty4n Trinity Review: Bringing Extreme SLI to the AMD platform

Benchmarks - Real World
It would seem that we spent more time playing games than actually running the benchmarks, but can you blame us? For this review we concentrated on 2 of the current industry favorites and after getting them setup we proceeded to play them as a way to stress test the setup.
8 hours later we can easily conclude that this gaming system is solid and the Ty4n research was correct. "Gamers tend to stay put while gaming"
Sadly this also meant that our time to run gaming benchmarks was cut short.

Gaming Performance
My personal favorite, Quake 3. We used the high-quality settings with the resolution set at 1024x768 32-bit color.
Quake 2. the next chapter in the Quake series from id. We used this game to show how well SLI works even on the most demanding of game titles.
Gaming Conclusion
Gaming performance was very smooth and enjoyable. Our Quake 3 framerates could have been a little better but anything above 30FPS is really good enough to play for any length of time. Sadly our Core 2 Duo reference system would not run these demanding game titles so we only have one set of gaming benchmarks to show.
