It is still only 512Mb addressable.

There are only 2 1GB products AFAIK, ati's FIREGL came first, Nvidia followed with a 1 GB Quadro product.

No consumer cards are currently 1 GB.

bah

Yeah, that card has 2 GPUs on it, so each one has 512mB.

It's a single X16 slot SLI config. They plan on running those in pairs so you get quad SLI if you can find a MB that will fit 2.

I really don't see the point. Quad SLi? I mean... really. Only if you are running 2x 2405 dell monitors or larger.

even sli is pointless, no games are even designed to use so much power, games and gpus go hand in hand for a reason... only occasionally do you get a game that actually pushes the boundaries, where a new gpu design is needed to run it.

But quad sli, that's like by a lambo or a ferrari in a city, its nice to look at but beyond that its of no use.
