LOL Well spotted, i just looked at the stack of cards and thought overkill!

Sparky · 28 Jul 2006 at 00:25

No he would only need 2 bridges as they are 7950gx2's and yes its the Quad Royal.

Oh he had RAM and Power

LanceCrossfire · 28 Jul 2006 at 00:31

knew they were 7950gx2's just always thought that they needed 2 bridges for quad sli.. 1 for each pair of cards...(just like some of the older 7900gx2 based systems...

matt100 · 28 Jul 2006 at 00:43

whats he trying there then? hexagonal or octuple sli? My tired mind escapes me..

My guess is octuple...

wiggy · 28 Jul 2006 at 00:46

I hope you told him to order some 12cm delta fans, coz he is going to need them to keep that lot cool!

Psycho Sonny · 28 Jul 2006 at 01:23

errrrrr he needs the drivers for octuple SLI which nvidia are currently working on because you need 4 gpu's for graphics and 4 for physics in their new dell sysytem dubbed the XPS 4x4 8000

Cyber-Mav · 28 Jul 2006 at 10:29

I'd be interested to see what PSU he's using and the one that Dell plan to use

.

Jongo · 28 Jul 2006 at 21:32

jeeeez uber sli on the go there. Must genarate looads of heat tho..

pinkacidbootson · 28 Jul 2006 at 21:38

I think Nvidia should develop a new driver just for him. Im surprised he didn't go for 4GB of RAM while he was at it.

at a guess either the pc&c or the tagan 1100

The biggest PSU I've seen in a Dell is in the new Precision. It supports SLi and up to 16 4GB DIMMs. The PSU is a 1KW by Delta.
