Fast computers breed slow, lazy programmers
The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.

Supposidly a $1,000 pricetag per card..... Yeah, no thanks.
It'll be funny to see the suckers who buy this thinking $$$ = Performance

I think its you lol
I agree waste of money at the moment need to produce faster cpu's first or dual core board.
You ever get the feeling your being watched!!
It tells me I need to login. Now its not just a waste of silicon, but a waste of my timeOriginally Posted by Vapor

I see what I see, and you see what you see. I can't make you see what I see, but I can tell you what I see is not what you see. Truth is, we see what we want to see, and what we want to see is what those around us see. And what we don't see is... well, conspiracies.

For all those that missed the benchs... basically in 1280x1024 2x7900GTX in SLI beat the QuadSLI setup. Only at 2560x1500 was a gain. And don't remember the exact numbers, but something like 8300 vs 9200
I wonder if it's been nvidia or Dell who "kindly requested" to remove the article![]()

Yes because we all play our games in that resolution
I'd rather spend an extra grand on an fx-60 thank you. Or something similiar that actualyl gives you your money worth
Or a Vapochill, the best WC set, a 24" LCD, a 2nd 20" LCD, or something that actually increases your gaming/benching experience

I'm still thinking the entire reason Quad SLi was made was by a request from OEMS.
That's why it's only available to oems, because the oems probably demanded something the DIY'ers couldn't do on their own to give them an incentive to buy from them instead.
Probably made the same threats that Dell makes to intel all the time, "we'll switch to ATi if you don't give us something big".
Yeah, so they can finally say that they have something exclusive, coz ppl usually bash oems saying "we can build it ourself, cheaper". Now they have quad-sli and PPUOriginally Posted by DilTech

Quad SLI isnt "big"
perhaps physically, but not performance
