    the specs should be right, but they were just unsure of the naming conventions and took it that they would follow through like the previous generation, but with the official 411 from DAAMIT, just take it that the x2800xtx is the x2900xtx

    Looks like it, i just wished that the two companies could make quad-sli, quad-fire viable, as in its current condition it's quite pitiful, as i would really imagine a pc loaded with what is physically 4 gpu's to make something significant out of that. We'll just have to wait for that x2900xtx2 and 8950gx2 if they turn out to be something powerful or just another moneysink.

    there are many cases where "normal" sli set-ups have surpassed the quad-sli, for example a pair of 7900 GT sli'ed can be faster than a quad, even if the gx2 are technically made out of two 7900 GT's stuck together. i guess what i'm trying to say its not practical and worth it for what it would cost people.

    Exactly. That's why Nvidia and ATI are hesitant to release quad-sli. Anyway, the driver support for current quad-sli is also poor.

    Don't know. Are you talking about the Vista drivers ? Because I think Nvidia have just released WHQL Vista drivers.
