Sites fire up Quad SLI GX2 rigs

8 GPUs on the 4 GX2s is it not?

There would seem to be a shortage of coders that know how to get the best from a slew of recent cards; is there a problem between the 'bus' linking the hardware peeps with the software peeps, or maybe they're just taking their time getting it right.

Maybe get the VJs and video installations people having a say in this - they'd be loving as many graphics cards and GPUs as they can get on a single machine.

oh

Riiiiiiiiight so 2 cards is quad now is it, since they're dual GPU cards.

So then one card with two GPUs is now a dual card equivalent?

I had figured since three-SLI is 3 cards, then quad meant 4 cards. So three-SLI using GX2's is going to be called Hex then? Is there any consistency in the naming process?
