2 x Radeon 9800 PRO

If this is true it should be interesting to see what else is comming out.
Probly a farce though.

Must be aprils 1st joke , if it was real would cost arround 400$ , and looking in performance charts its not very impressive .

Well you can find Radeon 9800Pro for arround ~250$ so take away cards pcb and add remaining GPU to another Radeon 9800Pro = MAXX could be under 400$ ;)
There were performace charts showing about 10% to 40% increase , dunno where they gone now .

That pics was around last year, and you'll probably see it again next year as well. (mag)

That is an april fools joke, although, dual 9800 pro boards are possible and a few exist, though I don't think they will ever market them.

Not to mention ATi's wonderful drivers, lol. It's not happening anytime soon.

And yes, this is pretty old (http://www.volarigamers.com/modules/news/index.php?storytopic=4).
