Nvidia has until August to enable SLI on Intel AND rethink their pricing, because the CF 4870 is going to turn their sales of both 260's (for SLI) and 280's to mush. What 2 years of waiting could not do to bring SLI to Intel chipsets, is now absolutely required or they will be forced to sell chips at a loss to get sales at all.

The first adopters will always be there, but a few months of this competition and it will belong to ATI for this round. The 55nm 200 chip won't be fast enough and won't come soon enough to help NV.

It's going to be funny to watch them eat humble pie, and all that while Larrabee moves in to finish off what's left...
