btw, question for the techs
the Nvidia 7960 GX2 utilizes 2 GPUs. Does every game see a noticable difference with the extra GPU on a card, or would the developers have to write specific code to use a (better word?) multi-threaded design?
and on that note, SLI and crossfire. When two cards are in SLI or crossfire, are both GPUs being used or is it just to bump up the graphics memory?


edit: reword

The Geforce 7950 GX2 was design with 2 GPUs so that you can run two of the same exact cards together for a Quad SLI setup. Quad SLI or SLI is best used on much higher resolutions. So if you played games at 1024x768, SLI or Quad SLI has no benefit for it. Quad SLI or SLI is much better experience on resolutions such as 1600x1200 or higher since you will get higher rez textures and so one.

Wow they are at 8800 now..i'm still at a GeForce FX 5950 Ultra...a bit dated to today's standards. Don't play games anymore so who cares. Seems like the moment you get a new card, they are already working on a new one that's even faster. You can't keep up...

With the 8800 cards out, I believe in the next few months, We can expect cheaper versions of the 8000 series cards. Who knows, Maybe a 8300 and 8600, And for bigger ones, The 8900 and 8950 Who knows. They did this before with the 7000 series cards. They first came out with the 7800 and then months later released the 7300, 7600, And the higher end 7900 and 7950 cards.

There's a word that sums up this sort of behaviour, and that word is 'reject.'

Yeah, Microsoft is pushing for people to move to Windows Vista, Therefore DirectX 10 will only be available on it.

I don't know much about DirectX 10, but would it be possible for ot to be hacked and released for XP?

Nope, Cause they will soon design games that will only run on Vista.
