Anyway, so would a 4ghz Quad be a bottleneck?
(Thanx for everyones comments) | Quad SLI has been available for over a year, using dual 7950GX2's, of course Nvidia will most likely screw this generation of Quad SLI users like they screwed us over a year ago |

Oh, no. I more meant Quad SLi, as in, 4 cards. Not 2x a dual GPU card.

same thing with the new Quad SLI it will be same design as 7950GX2 just two PCB's slapped together. Only thing going to use four cards is CrossfireX that i have seen in action  | |

Actually there was a limited supply of a Dell system that had 4 cards in a Quad SLi format. It was a monster gaming rig that had only like 500 made if that. PC Perspective - NVIDIA and Dell Bring Quad SLI Power to Life
Read that articel from Jan of 2006. It was a reality 2 years ago now since CES is already taking place right now. Legit Reviews - CES 2006: Dell's Quad nVidia SLI XPS System - For those who need 2GB of GPU Memory
There is another article. So ATi is not the first. This system was out 2 years ago but it was not made for public use.

That is what i meant. You could order them but not build them back in 2006. Sorry i wasnt that clear on that. They must have been monsters...

lol at them being monsters, quad-sli flopped nasty w/ the 7900/7950gx2... driver support held them back.... so they didnt get anywhere.. was what seemed fine w/ a single card... but adding in the 2nd one was a nightmare
