It was demoing a demo, not the same as a real game.
Demos can be written to play to its strengths.

wowsers......
Do you have a source for that? Bummer if true, I was told by someone over on the oculus forums who went to connect that it was rumoured to be a single gtx980
The SLI part isn't correct
They were single 980s

The odd thing is that the Crescent Bay demos were running on a single 980.

Source? I was under the impression they didn't reveal their tech set up for the demo.

Source is I was there and asked the guy.

if this is true, I like this far more
I really do not want to have to sli for CV1.
but to put it to bed, I dont suppose there is an official post by oculus is their detailing their demo rigs?

I'll have a look, there's probably a post by Cyberreality about it on their official forums.
OVR have never run SLI or Xfire setups to demo their kit so far as I'm aware (I practically live on /r/oculus/ and the official forums).

thanks mate.
I post on there too however must have missed that one...... great news however as that will keep it within reach of the (albeit fairly high end) normal gamer.
Aha I was sure I saw an image in the presentation and heard they were running multiple 980's (looked like x3 together), well it's a bonus if they weren't for sure.
Any of your guys running 980's managed to get 90fps ingame as well?
Carmack's presentation about running interlaced was interesting as that would help boost performance assuming nothing nasty got introduced as a consequence.
I've got a 980 and I've seen over 110 FPS on the DK2 at points (like supercruising and hyperspace).
I've also see 60fps in stations though on low so it's hard to say exactly.
I will be testing Beta 2 performance ASAP and I'll do a quick post on here with what I see.
Hoping for a butter smooth experience running at a minimum of 75fps+ anywhere in the game (even docked at stations and in ring systems) when Supersampled from 1440p with every graphic setting cranked up to the max

I got my DK2 2 weeks ago.. Man this game is awesome on the DK2
What res is every one playing at? I'm set at 1920 X 1080, geforce GTX760
Runs pretty well, but I wish I could clean up some of the jaggies and make the text a little more readable. Maybe Beta 2 will be better
Same, I'm on a 780 GTX and it can't quite push AA at that resolution.
Hopefully Beta 2 will let me run SLI and I can start supersampling a bit to make the text more readable.
Failing that, I do have 2 980 GTXs on order

2 980's wow! that will be quite the rig

You and me both, brother!
Selling my 780 Ti, in favor of 2x 980 GTX Msi Gaming. They are going to arrive tomorrow I think.
Apparently, the new Maxwell lineup reduces latency by half, and has many other strong benefits for VR. Including proper VR SLI function instead of AFR.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, they're back ordered at the moment, so it'll be a while before they show up, but I'm getting one of them through EVGA's step up program (lets you upgrade any time in the first 90 days, I bought my 780 GTX like 85 days ago), so I'm only having to pay for the second one thankfully.You and me both, brother!
Glad I invested in a 1300W power supply when I rebuilt my rig earlier this year, I'm fully expecting the neighborhood to suffer brown outs any time I turn this thing on.
