Well Finally! Not sure what to go for now... New mobo etc in New year - crossifre or SLi? hmmm.

It will be interesting to see how many cards that they have available...

Nice to see that NV is finally getting some worthy competition. However, I do think NV's SLI solution is more elegant in that it uses 2 identical cards. It is a much more transparent system and offers more flexibility in buying (upgrading) and re-selling those cards. Add to that the 135 different versions and sub-versions of ATI's product range, I must admit I get a "safer" feeling buying a GeForce than a Radeon card...

Can't agree more. ATi should know stuff like this, their x800 range is stupidly huge.
