Maybe, maybe not. Only time will tell. For now i'm hoping it is an Nvidia reference board.

I know this is Fudzilla (so it well might not be true) but if it is.

amen to that. had the 4870x2 and 5970 just like you.

from what I have been reading, it's two gf-110's on the card. So, either dual 570's or 580's. I wonder what the memory bandwidth is on this thing? 320x2, 384x2? And if people remember the wiki entry from awhile back, gtx 595 is supposed be released this quarter which is a dual chip card by nvidia reference. Of course EVGA had to be 1st, their nvidia's flagship partner.

I would truly hope you are right, but I have a feeling it isn't going to be a dual 570 or 580 chips. From what i have heard it would need 3 PCI-e connectors for that.

Nope, only if they tried to hit the same clocks. But they could be full on 580's reduced in clock speed enough to offset the TDP ceiling.
