Nvidia is sacking 6.5% of its workforce. Thats a pretty tough spot if you ask me!

For those who do not know I was the Big Bang introduction of SLI technology to the world that was revolutionary change and how to get more graphics performance, the picture is quite blurred in the section where they appear more details on Big Bang II.

If my view to reach me correctly read:

* Display Connectivity (connectivity with the monitor)
* Quality Improvements (Improved Quality)
* Performance Improvements (Enhanced Performance)
* OpenGL 3.0

Similarly invite them to speculate on who will bring great benefits Big Bang II (Or if it is just marketing), and if they accompany some new hardware.
Translated from HERE


That's what got it all started.

If you do let me know. I'm getting a new head soon so I may be interested in getting one of those 4870s.
