[DaMulta]

The new amd boards will be out:)

What new about them?

[DaMulta]

New features, PCI-E 2.0, and the overclocking looks to be better. It also supports DDR2 1066 instead of DDR2 800 as a standered.

OH great. my 2900 will fit into 2.0 right? and will there be any boost in performance?

Thanks much for the help!

There could be the 2400 and 2600 look to be PCI-E 2.0 cards. Rumored.

[DaMulta]

Yes I'm looking at the MSI board myself.

[panchoman]

the new x38/x48 chipsets, and whatever the new amd chipset is, the r670 i think?

full x16/x16 x-fire. the x38/x48 actually comes with the ability to do quad x-fire

[DaMulta]

The new AM2+ chipsets will do quad as well.

[panchoman]

well im ready for an oct core gpu system, are you damulta? the new 760 or whatever the hell the chip is called, dual core gpu's on one card. now lets do quad sli on those dual cores.

lol 400 watt x 4, hmm im going to need a circuit dedicated for my computer lol. so i cant use my 2900 with pci-e 2.0?

[panchoman]

nope, but aren't the 2950pro 2.0 ready or something?

[DaMulta]

nope, but aren't the 2950pro 2.0 ready or something?

Yea

Someone slap me but I'm thinking about quad 2900xt:rolleyes:

It will take more than my 1k, and I would have to add another PSU. I'm thinkig of those ones that fit in your bay just for video cards.

me thinking quad dual core 2950pro's flashed to xt's with tecs on em

or get a case that supports dual psu's and get like a pcp&c 750

[DaMulta]

LOL there is no way I would run 4 well I can't say no way:laugh:

[panchoman]

lol, im thinking of this system if i had to build a super expensive system in the next few months:

intel penryn w/ 437W tec
msi wced x38 board
4x dual core 2950pro's flashed to xt's w/ 80W ea
Dual Pcp&c 1kw psu's
Tri Mean Well psu's. with the blasted relay switchs of course.
dual pump, dual loop, 1080fan rad, etc. for the wc system
1TB raid, 4x 250g seagate 7200.11 perpendicular sataII in raid 0+1 w/ 1g of ddr2 333 cache for the raid controller
4g of ddr3 1866 memory (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220248)

etc.etc.
