As if 1 graphics card isn't expensive enough, 3 graphics cards is going to need some serious power supply.

Technology is flying at the moment. The 45nm CPU's are overclocking beyond belief! 4.5ghz on AIR cooling iirc.

However, I don't drool over the 3x GPU setup, I never even ventured into twin SLI because most games never got round to supporting it..

This benefits the Bench marking community far more than it benefits the gaming community..

 

Damn, that's a serious looking bit of kit there Grim

Of course I have a natural immunity to expensive top of the range computer kit - its called the missus

 

Erm 3 way SLi? did anyone not even mention 4 way Crossfire from ATI otherwise known as CrossfireX?

yeah thats right 4 ATI 3850 or 3870 cards all linked up to give you one hell of a graphics performance for your games...now thats what I am talking about...thats going to be my new set up for this time next year

 

Dont forget quad sli

 

never thought of it...

 

a guy I know has a set up, running 4 8800gtx cards I don't personally see the point at the mo since not many games support 2 cards let alone 3 or 4.

 

Some people have too much money and not enough brains!

 

brains i wont comment but money i dont have enough...

 

one of the directors at work bought 2 of those dual cored gfx cards about 1 year and a half ago, had to get permission from nvidia to buy them on their own due to the power requirements. the drivers for them were pretty poor however the 3-way SLI looks to be benchmarking quite well

how has he managed that ?

Dont know what mobo he has, I only saw inside his case briefly and the four cards were linked, he says two of them are running x16 but the other two x8, he even has four monitors linked up too

 

I just phoned him he has this P5N32-SLI Premium/WiFi-AP
