The quad SLI technology is designed to enable the highest quality possible: it allows to play the latest games in ultra high resolutions or to turn on the extreme levels of antialiasing.

Crazyness! [smilie=pdt_aliboronz_08.gif]

Thats just madness. Quad SLI? Can you beleive how much that is going to cost? I can only see the rich, the mad, and reviewers like Capper having setups like that.
:D Hahaha...

So would that make Capper rich and mad? :shock: :lol:

[Tyreal]

Forgot to add that last part...

...that does not make one, the other...

Thought about that when i logged out and just came back to add it. :D

omg. Quad SLI. Thats insane. next thing will be quad core computers. This is gonna be one hell of a year. =)

EDIT: imagine the amount of power you'll need. 1000 watt would be standard and think about the price. Be hella expensive.

[Tyreal]

I don't think there is quad core computers but there is dual core dual cpu setups.

Actually, you are right; just not this year. "Multi-core" processors are going to be Intel and AMD's next-gen processor in 2007 (at least intel for sure).

Yeah. I can imagine it. like i said. For enthusiats. They will all need 1000 watts of power. Think about the heat emitted from 4 cores. LOL

[Tyreal]

Its very possible that the power requirement of all kinds of hardware will increase in the next few years. But it is also very possible that something may be discovered/made that will allow processors of higher speed/performance to run with lower power.

Whenever they release a new line of processors, they make sure that the power requirements and heat emissions are reasonable or not.

They didn't do that for Preshott though. :lol:

[fps justin]

well. Yeah they will try to correct heat emissions and what not but in general. Bye-bye 500 watt PSUs. They will be history soon, unless the GPU power supplies do well.

Quesiton: are there 2 gige ram sticks? (2 + 2 = 4 giges of ram)
