about time Pc Ice gets the recognition he deserves. Hopefully he will get the sponsoring he deserve next. If he was hand feed hardware like the rest of the top overclockers he would deffinitly be #1. AMD and ATI need to jump on his bandwagon. Being his best friend and all, I know what that guy can do.

I agree, nice stuf Matt :toast: though it's difficult not to be serious when around people like ATI reps, Chilly1, PC ICE, OPPainter, Macci, Fugger, and anyone else deserving credit whom I forgot to mention.
Nice work ;)

For gaming I would buy an X800XT PE at present if I had loads of money because I tend to play Far Cry. However I will play RTCW2 or SOF4 if these come out and so maybe then I would like a nice nvidia. I dont think nvidia or Ati suck at present you just have to get the card which suits which games you are more likely to play. At present my 6800nu is OK.
Anyhow getting back to the point on whether SLI will run better on 775 or AMD chipsets. To be honest perkham I think the question might be more along the lines of which cpu will be able to keep up and therefore the new FX55 looks to be a lot better than the Intel ones. The Intel Prescott with 2MB L2 cache and 1066 MHz FSB looks like it might be good, but people are saying Q2 2005 now .... Father Christmas will not wait that long to deliver !
Another of my worries on SLi is that the 6600GT will not have enough memory bandwidth or amount of memory to work well in an SLi configuration. I bet all of nvidia's press review samples are the 6800 series. Perhaps rather than 80% improvement for 6800 there is only a 40% improvement for 6600GT and that at lower resolutions. I get the feeling that 2 6600GT's in SLI mode bought by someone to be faster than a single 6800 will be more like wishful thinking, especially in higher resolutions and AA/AF.
But I maybe wrong.
