But if it can only do 2 card sli, why bother with 4 cards?

Bit wasted really

:D

Yes I noticed that...

And this...

Features four PCI-E X16 slots for ultimate gaming platform (Only 2 Card SLi currently supported)

:p

it'll use 2 cards in SLi mode, but you can still use the other 2 slots for extra monitors... so why not splash some more cash on 8 monitors (2 per card) :D
 
but then you share cpu power, memory bandwidth etc between 2 monitors effectively doubling the calculations the cpu has to do or show the same on each monitor, or run each monitor in low res....

Just a waste of time and money when I have a 43inch dlp screen, why would i need more monitor space....

waste a grand + the vat on 2 cards that are as much use as a healed fanny..

:D

Only if nvidia rest on their laurels and dont make a single card as fast as 2 in the near future, which I doubt...

SLI isnt new, its been a 3dfx trick for years... started with the voodoo cards, no surprise it shows up in their new owners cards

:D
 
Sitting here waiting for Citylink to deliver my bits, gotta get them part assembled for shipping to Cyprus at 7.30 tomorrow morning... whats the bet they show at 5.30 when I have visitors tonight... sheesh...

:(
 
Arrived, built, and packed ready to ship to cyprus..

Fingers crossed it all works, as otherwise its gonna be a pain to rma, not that I have ever rma'd anything more than a few stix of ram before

:D
