Great, but until Matrox releases hardware that drives higher resolution (like 3x1920x1200 lets say), I see no point. Existing 8800 series are good enough for TH2GO (especially when in SLI).

idk if you've played crysis yet but that game could definitely use more fps on my end, granted i only have 1 8800gts 640mb oc. i can play the game with everything on high but i turn the shaders down to medium, however i'm only getting about 20fps. its still very playable at that tbh but there are times where i get laggy and its really annoying when something major happens and you gotta wait through the lag. these new cards will hopefully be a nice upgrade from the 8 series i'm hoping. it would be awesome to play crysis on very high with 3 monitors and get 30fps. i wouldn't be complaining one bit.

plus with the new crytek2 engine, and farcry 2 that will look better then crysis, there are going to be more and more games on this engine that will push hardware to the limits so the new 9 series will be a must IMO.

Apparently this is a hoax, as you can add your own cards to the list.

well that s*cks if its a hoax, however, the 9 series will be out eventually and i'm really hoping they improve nicely from the 8 series, and hopefully 3 way sli will be great for surround gaming. can't wait for the future

The way Nvidia is going, I really think 3-way SLI will just cause more headaches.....

Yeah x3 SLI looks pretty pathetic right now.

Theres a GTS update later this month. That will help a little.

Honestly I'm starting to think that seperately rendered screens will be the to surround scene goes.

If nVidia had engineered SLI rendering to output to multiple screens we'd already be there...
