What, like 4 cards in crossfire?...Crazy stuff, but would that really work out as 80x PS3 power in real world performance?

Bit of a story on Spider, certainly looks interesting!!
PC's are turning into consoles, while MS are making them into PC's!

ya but at £150 a punt on the gfx cards it will probably come in 10x the cost of the PS3 anyway

i reckon my home pc is probably 4x the performance of my ps3!
