    I agree.

    To Anyone working at Nvidia;

    Look into this as this may get you a promotion or something as there would be an increase in video card sales all of a sudden due to people wanting video cards to Sli on boards they bought because they overclock way better then the crappy boards you sold. It is one of the reasons why ATI got a boom in sales. Want them to cast their ATI cards aside? Well then help this guy get these drivers to this website and get someone to make a post about it. You will come out smelling like roses if you attach a letter to it saying something like: "We feel that everyone should be able to enjoy Sli on whatever platform they are running!" Heck you can even attach a simpathy card like: "We understand these economic times and wish to do our part to help out!". Can you imagine how many G92 cards you will sell (or whatever name you want to call them at the time)? What is better to get more investors onboard: 1) Give them an outlandish story on how your going to help make graphics 570X better over the course of the next 6 years or 2) Show them that you have a major market share and are constantly growing? It does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out. If I was an investor and I saw how ATI is scooping market share, then I would be very hesitant to invest in Nivida as they show no adaption capabilities to the market and are allowing their competition to gain market share. I would especially be resiliant to hand you my money to invest in your company coming out with the 570X story because it makes you look like your reaching for straws as you have nothing else to grab on to. It's nice to walk into the investors meeting with slides of market share and not having to do that.

    Thank you for your time
    Sincerely,
    Sadasius

    you might want to check with reality... SLI/CF makes up 1% of gamer's rigs, so that "boom" is about 1% of the total GPU sales...

    Really?!? Maybe that's why the letter was to Nvidia employee's. Perhaps I was trying to sell them on the letter. Perhaps the earth is round after all. Thanks for keeping me within the boundries of reality. Bravo!
