I dont really see a point in Quad-SLI at the moment really, there is no need for it.

exatcly^ aren't most gfx cards cpu limited anyway?

 

[Azza]

True. Also if your someone like Bill Gates and you can afford it, it would be amazing. But no normal person would shell out the cash to buy it as soon as it comes out.

"Sources indicated that such computers won't be cheap: Expect prices for a Quad-SLI system to begin at about $6000." Not the "begin" part, these thing are going to be damn expensive!

Surely you are intrested at least in some new technology, they aren't forcing you too buy it! If companies just sat around with the same cards and no advancement in technology, i am sure you would be a lot more negative!

total waste, how cpu limited ?? also you'd need a cinema screen with super duper high res to take advantage of it. lol

A projector would do the job and be a lot cheaper then 4 gfx cards I expect

Especially users who live in older houses may want to check, if their current power system supports a 1000 watt computer system.

A kettle would still use more power?

 

[hannibal2381]

yeah a lot cheaper.. lol
