Sneak Peek at ATi's CrossFire Graphics System

Kez writes "While at Computex in Taipei HEXUS.net grabbed some benchmarks of an ATi CrossFire powered system. They have since had the chance to reconstruct a similar system and perform the same benchmarks with other cards and configurations to give us an idea of how CrossFire will perform. Obviously, CrossFire's performance will almost certainly change before release time, but in the very least the article provides an idea of what to expect. Interestingly, from these tests it looks like Nvidia's SLI may remain top-dog for graphics performance."

SLI/Crossfire is an incredibly good idea...

to get twice of the money from customers with little performance gain.

Further, NVIDIA drivers are (still) quite unstable (on linux at least) with just one video card, and i was told that ATI drivers are even worse. I can't even imagine how often they will crash on a SLI/Crossfire system...
