GTX 295 Single PCB reviewed at PCGH

PC Games Hardware tested the new single PCB Geforce GTX 295. They ran benchmarks in:
Call of Duty: World at War
Crysis Warhead
Fallout 3
Far Cry 2
GTA 4
Half-Life 2 Episode 2 plus Cinematic Mod 9.51
Race Driver: Grid
Stalker: Clear Sky
Apparently the redesign only makes the card cheaper for the manufacturers and the new cooler is a little more efficient than the sandwich of the old GTX 295.

If i had money to burn id buy it but then again it would be out done in like 3 months after you bought it.

LinuxGuru5420d ago

And that's why I rarely buy PC games.

(No smartass Linux comments, I run windows dual-boot)

free2game3655420d ago

So you don't buy PC games because you feel insecure about your hardware? Do you realize how stupid that sounds?

Major_Tom5420d ago

What the hell? This isn't some low-end card you'd buy at wal-mart or best buy dude this isn't replaced in 3 months. Try a couple of years.

sloth4urluv5420d ago

Just because a newer card comes out dosnt make yours any less powerfull. I got a 8800 when they first came out and im still able to run pretty much anything on high.

Wow, that's a LOT cooler than my GTX 295 V1.

I'll probably pick one of these up for SLI when they drop in price.

Hooby5420d ago

What the heck are you playing at what resolution that could need this much power?

With that said, I might get one too haha.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken3h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop49m ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Chocoburger1h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer37m ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

badz14914m ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.
