4 video cards. WOW! And just how much is this little jewel gonna cost?
Haven’t checked that out....I am not in the market...since I am pretty much staying with AMD processors..
The Intel Core i7 is an awesome adjustment, and I’m saying that as a longtime AMD fan. But they can’t beat that thing for now.
Upgrading from FX-60 to i7 920
Yep, so you can play GTA 17 (exactly like GTA 1 through 16) and Final Fantasy LXXXVI (exactly like Final Fantasy I through LXXXV) at 6000 x 4000 resolution and 900 fps, when in fact anything over 35 fps is pretty much the same to the human eye. Yawnnnnnn.....
EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI (x16/x16/x8) LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail $299.99
And this:
If you are wanting to get a sneak peek at AMD's next-gen GPU technology in action, this is your chance. Join myself and other industry talking heads on the decks of the retired aircraft carrier, the USS Hornet on September 10th from 1830 hours till 0100 hours in Alameda, CA.
4 video cards. WOW!
whoopie......maybe they will finally begin to ship their cards with adequate cooling?

It would be great if I could get my 2 WAY SLI config to work. It crashes every time. What a waste of bux.
Factory installed NB/SB waterblocks
This might enable me to scootch the sliders up a notch on my Flight Simulator.
MS Flight Sim X runs on my rig, and I’m using dual-SLI with 64-bit Vista and 4 GB of RAM. 2 256 GB eVGA SLI video cards running in dual-SLI mode (no connecting strip) runs at 60 fps in most games on my 24” Apple HD Cinema monitor, and I’m using a mobo that’s 5 years old.
The new stuff is going to be truly epic, but 4 PCI-Express cards at $300 apiece is a bit much. Play to your enjoyment, not to the max of the platform. Besides, we’re already over the 1 KW mark on PSUs, why pay higher utility bills just to play a damn game?
That's a lot of bandwidth on the NB. I guaranty it'll bottleneck somewhere. If not at the NB controller, then in either cache sequencing or in one of the core routing channels.
High Performance Luxury computers
So I bet they do something with this stuff...
Um, I’m pretty certain your video boards are 256mb not 256gb ;)
