Dual GeForce 7800 GT SLI Single Card Performance

Maximus writes "Asus is this first board partner out of the block with a single board, dual GPU design based on NVIDIA's GeForce 7800 GT graphics chip. The Asus Extreme N7800 GT DUAL essentially takes a dual board SLI setup and packs it all into a single PCI Express based card. HotHardware has a performance preview posted that shows this card can even compete in some cases with an GeForce 7800 GTX SLI setup, due to improved latency characteristics with respect to inter-GPU transactions, that are inherent to a single board design . This board is a bit pricey though for sure so only gaming speed freaks need apply."

    Looking at the price , I believe a Small cottage in Siberia is included , Early orders also receive a free flight .
    Which should amply handle the cooling

    This card doesn't need external power! It runs a fusion reactor off its own heat!
