I'll take your current SLI system once you upgrade to the quad setup. :)

Less clutter since you won't have all that old stuff in your way.

lol what CaptN said .. besides nothing stays in the way. they usually get transferred to form another PC & so on .. :p

ATI's approach appears not to be limited to just two GPU - or four such as in this case. Crossfire may be able to support up to 32 graphic chips, sources said. :afro:

Works for me. Now we just need to bug SH64 until he sends me his SLI-setup. :)

How long can you hold off buying a quad board for then Jakup???

lol - I give you only a few weeks.

[grimreefer]

a good cpu for this board is the pentium d 2.8ghz. its only $240, and its dual core!
i hope some other models of the geforce 7 series have sli, cause i cant afford 2 7800gtx's let alone 4.
also, will they make a connector to connect sli connecters

The board, currently named "GA-8N-SLI Quad", shows four PCI Express slots that can be occupied by SLI-compatible graphics cards. According to sources, Gigabyte found a way to combine two nForce4 SLI chipsets on one platform. Interestingly, the board integrates two different versions of the chipset - the nForce4 SLI Intel Edition (Crush 19) represents the Northbridge, the version for AMD processors is used as Southbridge.


Two nForce chips - one as northbridge and one as southbridge. Ain't hypertransport grand?

Water cooling and a 1500w PSU required :D

Soooooooo... I wonder when Jakup will buy it :cool:

[Dr@Home]

:drooling:
seriously. whoevers getting one will need a pretty large PSU if they fill 4 cards.. :p

[Gator]

Yep... the first person I thought of when I saw the article was jAkUp. Guranteed he'll be the first person here to upgrade (foshiz)

[Gator]

Well, I suppose with a big enough case one could install dual PSU's. Server cases often have redundant power supplies, so why not a gaming rig? :cool:
