probably played in a freezer

 

[SashatheMan]

is that run in SLI? amazing

is it is.

that would cost alot aswell.

 

[Minai]

jesus, yeah 4 7800GTX's would probably cost around $3000 at best

liquid nitrogen cooling????

whats the point of four video cards anyway? So it allows you to have four screens to spread your desktop over (different display on each screen) or four screens with the same thing?

 

[ReaveR]

You could have eight screens with that setup, and you get to pick if you want to spread them or mirror them.

What does Hydravision do, anyway? I never installed it.

 

[redslert]

that's not running in SLI
there's no plug between the cards

 

[ReaveR]

I think it's an application that comes with ATI graphics cards (it came with my 9600XT) that allows a maximum of 2 (4?) monitors to be used. There's a tab for it in the Display --> Advanced window. I've never used it.

Yeah it comes with ATi cards. It's probably a manager like nVidias 'nView' then. You don't really need any software as long as your card has two plugs anyway, but for those who do run multiple monitors I recommend a nifty little software called Ultramon.

Edit: For those interested in the board, check out http://www.ocheaven.com/article/0509/readgoodarticle.asp?id=2575

Apparently it does support four pci-e slots.

and generate enough heat to fry a marshmellow.

Hahah, try boil a saucepan of soup

 

[Collin]

Awesome? Yes. Useful? No.

It's a working board but Quad SLI isn't supported. Until nVidia creates (or not) drivers to support 4 boards then this setup provides no gaming advantage.

 

[Collin]

New Gigabyte mobo supporting Quad SLi.

[SashatheMan]
