hah! check this ;D
http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=7503 and at Dailytech my friends :) http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=5436 the card is kinda huge too :-X But hey Quad CrossFire is now possible or you can use the secondary GPU as a Physics unit instead :) what also is possible is 2 of these cards in CF and use 2 of the GPU's ofr graphics and the other 2 for physics or all 4 in CrossFire :) what I would do and use an Ageia Physics P1 for the Physics ;) |

WOOOW :o
I want it now! Is it compared to nVidiot 7900GX2 already |

it should beat a single 7950GX2 with ease ;)
since it has 2x 36 pixelshader processors while the 7950GX2 has only 2x 24 ;) this one like the 7950 GX2 has 2x 8 vertex shader processors but what it has as a greater advatage is that it can combine FSAA + HDR + AF HQ and you can utilize the second RV570 VPU as a PPU :) or you add a second card as second dual RV570 setup, thereby a 4 way RV570 setup in CrossFire and in the 3rd PCI-E x16 slot a X1650XT as Physics Processing Unit aka PPU for example :) |

Ah sorry for that :-X
yeah pretty freaky idea hay haah this is kinda insano man Crikey! man just imagine those new mobo's with 2 PCI-E slots, 2 of thise thing in CrossFire thereby beating a dual R580 setup haha LooL there I go :-X, then in the third slot a third dual card for Physics and then R600 comes well you'd put 2 dualie R6.xx cards in the main PCI-E x 16 slot's and a 3rd one in the Physics slot hah man NV will never know what hit them ;) And now that software CrossFire is possible and also gives nice gains, maybe you can just use all 3 Dual cards in CF then hav'n a total of 6 RV570 VPU's , just imagine this idea with the new generation of R6.xx VPU's, would be nice for Folding @ Home or Seti@ Home too , oh maaaannn !!! :o :o :o ;D |

I made some counting and the result was: Dual X1950pro don't fit my case, the graphic card is too wide >:( And my case is modded Compag deskpro (orginal HW was P!!! 733MHz )
well the good thing is that I'm gonna make wood case in summer and I'will purchase ATi's Dx10 mainstream graphic card in spring ;) |

nou :-/ haha that's a pian, and what about a Lian Li PC7 PLuS they aren't that expensive but they are of good quallity too :) Lian Li's are extra wide so it should fit in there :) BTW is that you on that bunny film in your sig? It's funny hahahaha ;D ;D ;D Must say that the Dual R580 Setup I have now is kinda amazing, at my computer club they were having a 3D mark 2K6 race with default speeds hah the fun began while one of me mates which had the fastest PC scored a nice 4567 points he had a X2 4400+ 2GB Corsair XMS platinum, NForce4 mobo from ASUS ??? why Nforce 4 Sli while he want ATI CF! heh bad move believe me, the RD580 crushes NNF4SLI with ATi's I just can't get that through his head. then he asked me to run 3D mark 2K6 haha I said are you sure? he yeah go on so my score came with 8387 ;D he was WTF! I showed him my dual R580 setup on RD580 and he kinda was shocked haha So then I was thinking why no Dual R580 card instead Dual X1950 XTX ;) that would be much more fun than a dual RV570 right ? |

Yes I played too much Rayman Raving rabbits and the bunnies get angry with me and beated hell out of me :(... nah not really I find that .gif image somewhere from the internet I have looked where that clip is taken from. I found out that new rayman game have those rabbits in the game but I dont know is that clip from the new rayman game. Dual X1950pro would be nice but I think I won't purchase it, because I dont need no über card, but if I won in a lottery... ;) Those Lian Li case would be nice but I dont waste my money for that what I can make myself 8) I even make my speakers myself and lots of other things |
