V3-SLI Well the main problem with SLI is that the AGP bus and the PCI bus run at different speeds. The only current implementation of v3-sli would be with the 2000. However, in the AGN hardware E3 wrapup it mentioned the 3500 being available in a PCI version sometime after the AGP version (hmmm.....), however, i really don't see the point in creating an SLI version of the V3 if it's only limited to a PCI-PCI connection. With AGP being the current bus of choice, the PCI-PCI SLI solution would be relegated to the ULTRA-niche market (unless of course, the create an AGP-PCI bridge) regarding "pattern" breaking... i definitely have to agree that something is different... after all under the old 3dfx, the board would be unusually quiet on up days, but now... almost 50 messages in the past 24 hours? sheesh...
