As nVidia is going to quad sli with 2cores in one PCB and to outrageous scores to 3d benchmarks , ATi decided to go on with the same tactic....so here is the first photo of a 1600 in one PCB in Crossfire already...the turn of the X1900s' is coming....

were does the hot air go?
from the pic i gues its blown out at the back but i see no opening for the air to get out.

It goes into the Case
it would take up Three slot for it to blow it out

Modern Ram, makes an old overclocker miss BH-5 and the fun it was
Unless they removed those useless VGA ports
Which would be a good move..
Anyone else notice the fact that it is going to have to be externally powered?

YES I USE A CASEdon't tell me you guys use a case..that is so
infact all my rigs are in a Case
at the same Time if you get the right case and set it up right it will out perform an open Mobo

How would you water cool something like that? Need a fairly big water block
if its just a single PCB then wouldn't you just need two GPU blocks?How would you water cool something like that? Need a fairly big water block
Correct unless there is a water block that spans both GPUsif its just a single PCB then wouldn't you just need two GPU blocks?

Well... if the layout is like the dual 7800 card it might be hard:
and that metal bracket part looks exactly the same too.
The barbs would have to point straight up. Wouldn't the ends of the barbs cover the ram so an inch of space between them and bottom of that metal bracket/support? Eh kinda hard to guess how a block would end up. Maybe there'd be room. Whats the width of a standard PCI bracket? 0.75"? so that thing is 1.5". Height of a MCW55 or Maze is about 1.25".
Could just use a normal maze4 style block so the barbs are perpendicular to the board.
this is bid as..... motherboard!!! :P
Core Quad Q9300
ASUS P5Q-PRO
4GB RAM
Ati Radeon 4890
Enermax Liberty 620w
your desk is probably bigger than my dorm room, I need to use a case to save space.don't tell me you guys use a case..that is so
but back on topic...this is getting rediculos, I don't need 4 GPU's infact my moniter doesn't support anything higher than 1280x1024. most people are in a similar case I imagine.

Microsoft's homepage can be found at: thesource-dot-ofallevil-dot-com - interesting, no?
Think of something witty and imagine it here.
anyone else notice how the card in the pic is oriented so that the core faces the CPU rather than the PCI slots?
might help the cooling as the air gets sucked into the CPU / exaust jetstream
with all these increased-size VGA cards.....I'll need the biggest mainboard ever seen...
Hmm yes the ATI is! WOooooot except now dice tubes are going to be hard
If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.

wouldnt be hard at all, couldnt use a low profile maze4, but a regular maze4gpu would be no problem, there is plenty room to bend the tube enough.

I did not notice that..
With a few small changes it Exhust the Heated AIt directly at the CPU to get Jeted out

I think the picture is flipped. Look at the letters on the middle of the fan. Its an ASUS card and it looks like a backwards AS
well if you flip it.. it almost looks like an AS but that wouldn't be as useful as if they flipped it to the other side

Yeah but the other way dry ice is impossible almost.
If you have a cooling question or concern feel free to contact me.
at the same time how often do you use Dry Ice to cool your GPU?
Sure I water cool my benchmarking card but I have no reason for that level of cooling for my Gaming card...

Dude you don't need to overclock a gaming card if it is a 7800GTX and the game is 5 years old
