    Well according to the last "real" news. Lucid said it should be ready in Q1 2009 and would most likely be attached and sold on mother boards. So, it could be bull, or it could not.


    All i have to say about this is, when it does hit, whenever that is....BOUGHT!!!


    Also, I love the guys comment on the bottom about Lucid Hydra being "just" an alternative to SLI or Xfire, like its no big deal, it is MUCH, MUCH, MORE, than an alternative!!!

    It will more than likely Kill Xfire and SLI, or make them change radically.

    By change radically you mean force them to make a technology that works? In either case its pointless since lucid will solve all those problems.

    It's all right there in my Sig. I told everyone to look into Lucid... the company, just not it's product; (Hydra Chip). Th engineers designing this thing has some serious credentials.

    If this thing is for real, we might be saying bye - bye to SLI/Crossfire... perhaps that is what AMD plans to use that extra bus for... something to help the Hydra chip ...?



    Guess my old X1800XTX might be worth something...?
