Single GPU Configuration – The Best Approach for High-End Graphics Systems: Nvidia Chief Executive

“If you want to put two GPUs on an add-in card and you deliver the absolute highest performance in the world, the enthusiast that uses that particular PC will certainly tolerate the fact that it’s a much larger solution. But if it’s not the highest performance solution in the world, as in the case of the X2, then it’s just really problematic. You know, there’s no market really for a product that’s larger, louder, and not as high performance. So, I think that GeForce 8800 GTX is still absolutely the best DX10 and highest graphics performance GPU in the world,” said

Jen-Hsun Huang, the president and chief executive officer of Nvidia Corp."

"Back in 2006 Nvidia released its GeForce 7950 GX2 product with two GPUs onboard that could not beat single-chip ATI Radeon 1900 XTX and Nvidia GeForce 7900 GTX graphics cards in all benchmarks, but still offered considerably higher performance in certain games."




"So, I think that GeForce 8800 GTX is still absolutely the best DX10 and highest graphics performance GPU in the world,”

WOW...the president and (CEO) chief executive officer of Nvidia Corp admits this.im done with this thread after reading that with my own 2 eyeballs.

i thought they were bringing up the GDDR8... ain't true??' lol
Ati crap!
they shader unified system fails because for example RV670 they claim
320 Stream processors but they work in blocks of 80x4 and that
makes it much slower compared do the unified structure of nvidia!
so forget about ATI specs, because they always have great machines
on paper but playing they loose badly against week specs from nvidia.
