Quad SLI works on AMD AM2

NVIDIA is rather happy about its Quad show off SLI. Four are better than two because two are better than one, except if you are talking about troubles or broken ribs.

We have seen three Quad SLI systems so far and we are not surprised that Foxconn has one of them. The Foxconn one has naturally four graphic cards but it supports and works with AMD's socket AM2 CPU.

An Nvidia boy was guarding the system with his life, and the people were very interested to see these cards in action. Nvidia still doesn't talk about the performance of the machines but it likes to show off the Formula One race. That is the only thing you can see on it so far.

When it comes to hard launches, this is the second time that Nvidia showcased the Quad SLI and it is still not ready to ship it. It naturally blames the OEMs and manufacturers but some of the spinners actually said that the system is not ready for benchmarks, at least not yet.

You need an 850W power supply unit to make it happen and that won't be cheap for your electricity bill. At least it is cool to have four power cables in four graphic cards, which are again internally interconnected. Did we mention that the cards are much bigger than anything we've seen so far? µ
