Default Omg!! Quad Sli!!!

Dell and NVIDIA showcase first Quad SLI system

OMFG a QUAD SLI!!!! thast 4!! 4 7800gtx 512mb's!!!!!!!!!!!
but big downside for me was its a DELL... an Intel for the CPU, and the case isnt all that great... they could have done beter...but,.. its still amazing!.

The video card subsystem is quite astounding - there is over 41 gigapixels per second of fill rate, 96 pixel pipelines, 32 vertex shaders and 2GB of dedicated graphics memory. As for clock speeds, each of the four GPUs will be clocked at 430MHz - we're not sure of how fast the memory is running at, but we're suspecting that they'll run at 1200MHz - the reference GeForce 7800 GTX 256 clocks.

We have no doubts in saying that this machine will be able to enjoy every game out there at the native 2560x1600 resolution of the new Dell 3007WFP monitor. In addition to this, NVIDIA is launching a new 32x SLI Anti-Aliasing mode for this system - many games will be CPU limited enough to make use of these unheard of Anti-Aliasing levels.
omfg! A-MAZING!

its probably ganna cost like $8000 b/c its probably ganna have 4gb of RAM and like 500gb, maby even a Tb of HD space..or those 15000rpm HDD..
who knows?!?!?!?!

Alright so if this is the true QUAD-Set up does that mean 3.7x the power of 1 gpu? or is it just running off 1.9x the power of a single gpu with 4x the memory?
