Yes/no?
No, it doesn't, because then the input lag makes apps unplayable. I mentioned this in the past too...it gets so bad that in FEAR, for example, I can dominate any server when playing with a specific friend. We just have our tactics down, blah blah blah... Anyway, enabling v-sync, I'll be at the bottom of the server...no matter what. It's hard to react to something when it's already happened, and you see it after the fact...I mean..reaction time means NOTHING then.

It's a lose-lose situation. Especially when the multi-gpu target audience is what it is at the moment.

jdhann, IF they have disabled the sideport in single-gpu configurations, they aren't very smart. I don't understand how you tihnk this would make ANY sense at all...

Why would they purposely gimp the gpu, when even the heatdump is unimportant?

I mean, with Hector, anything is possible...but really now.
