the X800XL im waiting on is looking better and better.... and i have an SLI board, wooo.

the only flaw with ATI's plan here, is motherboards dont have enough 16X slots for multiple cards!

ATI needs a Nforce competitor

How come 24*1.5 comes out to 32 on this website but it comes out to 36 in the rest of the world?

Two questions for those who know more than I about ATI's "SLI-like" technology:

1. Will I be able to use my ATI X800 XL as a parent card or at least a slave card?

2. Will my ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe mobo be able to run ATI's SLI-like technology, or isd the nForce4 technology only pertain to the NVIDIA style?

Answer to post #7...

1. Yes

2. No, because your ASUS A8N-SLI is based on a Nvidia chipset and only supports Nvidia's SLI... To use ATI's new SLI (AMR) you will need to buy a motherboard with the new ATI chipset that supports AMR, which is coming out soon...

Do ATI chipsets have much in the way of overclocking?
