similarly SLI technology on PCI Express
06.04.05 at 20:00:11

Alienware has developed a technology that will allow
2 PCI Express video-cards to work together in parallel mode (like the SLI techonlogy from 3dfx)
This technology will be able to use the Nvidia video-cards and also the ATI video-cards.The core of the technology will be an Intel chipset

The Alienware asserts that this technology will boost up performance from 50 % to 90%.
Rhetorical Question:What can you do with 2 Radeon X800XT and this technology ?

Basically the same direction, using two graphics cards for generating one output.

The cards from the right will boost your video memory at high fps and offer you a quality rendering.(Could be Nvidia or ATI ,I'am not sure)

Obi-Wan_Kenobi Ex Member	Re: similarly SLI technology on PCI Express Reply #14 - 24.06.05 at 00:42:30 yeaps, my ASUS Ati Radeon X800XT Platinum Edition easily keeps up with a SLI set 6800 Ultra in FS 2004, on which that card performs best. NV SLI also cost way too much cash so ATi has therefore still the upper hand in the price performance sector onwhich is in my opinion the most important sector.
