Well...wouldn't you need 4xPCI-E 16x slots? I'd say you'd need a quad-core to take full potential of them. Actually, you'd probably need one that hasn't been released yet. :P
non-existent at the moment, i believe that the most pci-e slots for graphics cards at the moment is 3, in the 680i series. besides, you need nvidia to develop drivers for that kind of technology, and well....... lets leave it at that.
There would probably be latency issues running across 4 PCI-E slots. This may be solved in SLI 2 and PCI-E 2. What's more likely for the moment is a card such as the 8950GX2 (hypothetical) - and you would have two of them running in SLI - effectively giving you 4 GPUs.
yeah, agree with cyborg-21, we don't have true quad-sli right now, its just paired up gpus on a single pcb times two. sli 2 and pcie 2 will be interesting with their promise of 4+ slots of interchangeable video cards, and just to imagine how they could solve all the compatibility issues is mind-boggling, but i'd assume something on the course of all the cards down-clocking to the lowest common denominator. hey, it is an interesting and profitable (in the eyes of the gpu developers at least) time for gpu, and computers in general.
[QUOTE="surferboyo"][QUOTE="druglord6"]is it possible? and what kinda processor would u need to take full potential of them?SoberWarock
lol youd need a core 2 duo extreme (quad core) running at about 3.5 ghz and about a 2kw psu mate 2k wat are you serious?
No he isn't. A PSU that can put out 80amps on the +12v will be fine. Putting out close to a kw on the +12v is no small feat, this ePower Xscale has just enough juice to do so but has some ripple problems, so I wouldn't recommend using it if you need 80amps.
So a quality 1200w that can handle an 80amp load on the +12v without any ripple problems could run 4 GTXs. Though a 1.4-1.5kw PSU would be a bit safer.
Hmm,.... you like Opera? I'd heard about it but never tried it. Frankly, I was so impressed when I switched from IE to Firefox that I never considered anything else.
AMD's 4x4 supports up to four pci-e video cards, I believe ASUS makes the motherboard. The problem though is that there are no drivers that support four seperate video cards, plus you would need to use a massive psu and also have a wall socket that can support the amperage.

yea, here is a link: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2853609&CatId=2320 The model is Asus L1N64-SLI WS
hey guyys IE7 is really nice but only after u get used 2 it. And who is that performance maniac who thinks that he should use 4 8800gtx's ?? just show me that guy n i promise u wont c him or hear from him again.
